English 9 Introduction: Short Story Unit, Literature, Language, and Culture What is Culture?

How to take notes from a picture slide presentation Set up your page with a date and title (“What is culture?”). Sit and listen while I talk at the slide. Take a moment to process information. What does the slide show? Point form. Use colour / highlighter pens to categorize / visually process. Look for categories. Build the concept. Review: read over, summarize, categorize. Teach another, say it out loud.

Your job is to learn what culture is… You will view a series of EIGHT images. These images help you to understand the definition of culture. As you view the images, glean as much information as you can from them. On your paper, write the slide number and brainstorm a list of ideas, information, questions, and observations, about what culture might be. Listen to what I say, but think for yourself too. Use the note-taking strategy: watch, think, process, summarize, simplify, use colour, and take some simple point form notes.

What is culture? What does it have to do with English? Culture is everything in our world that is not biologically / mechanically based. Our culture is our community, our peer group, our society, and our way of looking at the world. Since literature is about understanding other human beings, and since language is about expressing ideas about our lives, we should probably know a little bit about how language and literature fit into our culture. Some examples of culture: Traditions, customs, holidays, celebrations. Art, music, literature, dance, poetry, movies. Money, work, housing, social status. Families and kinship arrangements. Religions, beliefs, morals, ethics, spirituality. Age and rites of passage. Gender roles. Food! Marriage, sex, and rituals around dating. Jokes, tricksters, and entertainment. Leadership and government.

So what is culture? Review your notes. Turn to a partner. Tell them what you learned / took notes on / think culture is. Have your partner tell you what they learned / took notes on / think culture is. Add to your notes with any new information. Read over your notes once again.
