End of term Culture Lesson/ day
This year for end of term lesson/ day, we have chosen to do a culture themed show and tell.
Within this class student are encouraged to incorporate the various culture and traditions of
other student into dance, movement and activities. All students and parents are encouraged to
be involved. Student can educate other students by showing them a traditional dance, sing a
song, play a traditional instrument, show and tell a traditional item. Parents are welcome to
join in the class to participate, enjoy the day, and lesson.

Cultural understanding is important for all students, this enabled students to develop growth
and development in feelings and experience showing responsibilities as they grow. Students are
also encouraged to use movement such as dance to show and portray cultural understanding.
Through this students are able to develop interpersonal relationship such as recognition that
families have common and different customs and behavioral values.
