Cultural Exchange
Each year the ALTs have an hour long cultural exchange with the students. The 2013 cultural exchange lesson was organized by Russell.
ALT | Activity |

Neil Fanning | American Trivia Game |

The students were broken up into 11 groups (due to an ALT being in the hospital), with three groups of 4 and the rest groups of 2. Interaction with the students began with the ALT briefly introducing him/herself (name, age, country). The students then had to place a purikura picture (of the ALT) onto a map they were provided. ALTs had 4 minutes to perform their cultural activity. At the end of 4 minutes, a whistle was blown, and the students had one minute to move to the next station.
