[|Dreams of Kirina]

Boys and girls,I don´t know how I could paste this video about life in a village in Africa (in Mali) I think it is related to the topic, if we want to teach about this continent, its culture and people,if we think about going against stereotypes(critical cultural awareness) it's a good way to show our students that not all people in Africa are poor,dirty or die of hunger. What´s your opinion? I suggest to show the video and ask our students to learn about these people's culture through thier clothes,houses,the way they cook, they dance, how they behave, their customs... Then I would suggest them to make a comparison between this culture and ours.But focusing on the similarities,on what we have in common and not to fear of differences. I'd ask them :"Do you think they have the same concept of "home sweet home"as you do? What´s yours? (Think globally,act locally) (I suggest these objectives)Objectives:(as regards **attitudes)** Curiosity in using the language to express something they know or want to tell. Acceptance of otherness. (as regards **Knowledge)**Social distinctions. Comparison between different cultures Perception of other societies, Geographical knowledge. (as regards Skills)Ability to interpret another culture and relate it to one´sown. Ability to understand another culture and discover about one's own.

Then we can include the poem that Silvina suggested, the lyrics of the song that pilar brought :One vision(by Queen) and work with their messages. What's your opinion?

And below are some of the ideas I have thought of o work with the material.I'm not getting online until 7pm....so...see you at Bar Mitre :) Bye!!

Hi All! This is our prezi presentation. We've planned to work with stereotypes and with the identification of the main elements of both african and our cultures, to see the differences and similarities between them. We've included pictures, maps, a video, some quotations and a poem. See you later to share more ideas! media type="custom" key="11535044" Yani and Lau
