Cultural Exchange
Each year the ALTs have an hour long cultural exchange with the students. The 2014 cultural exchange lesson was organized by Katie.
| ALT | Activity |
|---|---|
| Kathryn and Patricia | Animal Quiz - Japan/Canada/America |
| Stephanie H and Michaela | Card Houses |
| Brianna and Katherine | American Jump Rope |
| Jasmine and Chey | New Zealand Food |
| Christina and Stephanie J | Card Games |
| Jeffrey | Rockets - Carnival Game |
| Tierra | Wisconsin Music |
The students were broken up into 7 groups of 4. 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 passport map they were provided. ALTs had 8 minutes to perform their cultural activity. At the end of 8 minutes, an announcement, and the students had to move to the next station.
