Cultural Exchange:

Our world is increasingly becoming one of shared cultures and values. By looking at the cultural parts and how they fit and influence the whole, we can come to a better understanding of how our nation and the entire world thinks and functions the way we do. On Friday, you will bring in an edible artifact that represents your own personal ancestry and write a ½ page description on the blog of how that ancestral origin has influenced our world. What contributions have been made, what advancements were caused and what impact is felt because of that country. Sign up below with the nation and artifact you plan on bringing in!
