I.Introduction (3minutes).

Good morning, dear friends! I’m glad to see you. You may take your seats.

Please look at the screen and guess what we are going to talk about. (Slide 1 Pictures related to the topic CULTURE).

You are right! Today we are going to discuss different cultures.

II. Warm up activity(3minutes).:

Please look at the blackboard, you see the word CULTURE.

Let’s brainstorm. What for you does ‘culture’ mean?  Why? Give your ideas.

III. Activity 1: To enlarge pupils' understanding of ‘culture’(10 minutes).

Now let’s work in pairs- I give each pair a piece of paper from a bag (Papers say: ‘Indian culture’, ‘youth culture’, ‘European culture’, ‘American culture’, ‘African culture’, ‘primitive culture’, ‘Moslem culture’).

Please make a list of at least 5 things, ideas, words that you associate with your category. (3minutes).

Now I split pairs to form two large groups. Each group is to present your ideas of ‘culture’ and its associations to your group. The members of another group must add at least 3 more ideas/words to the list.(5minutes).

How, now, has your understanding of ‘culture’ changed, compared to when you first thought of it? What does ‘culture’ include that you didn’t think of before? Why?(2 minutes).

Check your ideas. (Slide 2 )

Multiculturalism is everywhere today. As the world gets smaller, multiculturalism becomes bigger. Few of us today live in towns in which there is only one culture. Today, we live in towns where we are surrounded by many other cultures. If we live in a city, we will see people from all over the world. Of course, some cities are more multicultural than others. New York is a real melting pot. It is called the most multicultural city on Earth. A city like Tokyo isn’t so multicultural. I think multiculturalism is a great thing. It’s fantastic walking out of your door and seeing other cultures. This didn’t happen when I was young. People didn’t understand other cultures. They didn’t even want to understand. I’m glad things are changing today.
