Teaching: "You know what that means?"
Teaching quiz or brainstorming
Theme: intercultural awareness, stereotypes
Material: a watch, pencil and pens
Students: At least five students of different nationalities
Level: A2-C2
Time: 5 minutes for each student
Purpose At the end of the students will get closer to the thinking of the other students from starting their own culture and will also meet new cultural aspects found in other cultures.
Challenge: overcome the fact that students do not know each other well
Preparation: classroom with chairs and tables
Method of teaching:
1. Each student must think of a typical aspect of their culture (ie "fika" is the name of the morning coffee break in Sweden).
2. This word "fika" must be written on a sheet in a hidden way so that nobody can see it.
3. Each student has 10 questions and 5 minutes to guess the theme. (Ie is a known thing in the world? Is made by adults or children, etc.).
4. responses to help other students to get more information before making your next question about the behavior of people while doing this "cultural event".
5.After 5 minutes or 10 questions will be the turn of another student.
NB: to motivate students can give a small prize (candy or fruit) to the winner of the game.
