Today in class we all got there and Mr. Schick was not in the room at first. Then a few minutes after the bell rang Mr. Schick came in and we started class. He told us that we did not need our computers and that we were using our notebooks to write notes down on what we go over. Our discussion was about cultures today. We saw what each county's name for a soft drink was. If you saw the map you would be able to tell that most people call soft drinks pop. i think the next biggest was the name coke than soda. Then there was that little bit of other. Like most of the map was blue because blue stood for the name pop. Then we talked about cultural characteristics. It was the thought that the ideas and themes which the group will teach all members. Examples of cultural characteristics are languages, religion, and ethnic heritage.
