Culture Comparison

This activity can be done by researching in the internet about the required
topics and the students can write the information in a document file. This
activity would familiarize the students with other cultures other than theirs
and this could be a step closer in achieving or developing the Globalization
and Multicultural Literacy skills of the students.
Instructions: In a short bond paper, describe your culture and cultural
background. Then, research about the culture of the people from the given
places and show the similarities and differences of your own culture to theirs.

A paper about the students’ cultural background and how their culture is

Role-play
This is one of the activities where the students are provided with an
opportunity to learn and practice their Social Literacy skills. Role plays allow
students to practice their communication skills while acting out different
scenarios just as they would in real life situations. In this activity, the teacher
will provide scenarios in which the students can act out and offer immediate
feedback.
Instructions: The class will be divided into 5 groups. Each group would select
a scenario that should be different from the other groups and perform a role-
play about it. Each group can choose from the following scenarios:
 Disagreement or argument between friends (Choose a fun debate topic)
 Instructor giving instructions and students acting out what the
instructor is saying.
 Ordering and eating where there is a ‘problem’ with the food
 News reports on the happenings in town (You may invent ridiculous
stories)
 Passengers giving directions to a taxi driver with a poor sense of
direction
Presentation of the students about the different scenarios.
