Cultural Exchange
Each year the ALTs have an hour long cultural exchange with the students. The 2016 cultural exchange lesson was organized by Katherine.
| ALT | Activity |
|---|---|
| Jeff and Kathryn | Pokemon GO |
| Fiona | Pop Music/Hot Potato |
| Liam and David | Coin Rugby |
| Alyssa and Chloe | Tongue Twisters |
| Katherine | American Desserts/Bar Cookies |
| Eli | Introduction of the Barbados |

The students were broken up into 7 groups. Interaction with the students began with the ALT briefly introducing him/herself (name, age, country). The students received the ALTs game piece to place on their game board. ALTs had 7 minutes to perform their cultural activity. At the end of 7 minutes, an announcement was made, and the students had to move to the next station.
