HEROES

Different cultures

Heroes

Different cultures

A hero is a person who does something special or great. What a hero has done is based on facts. A hero helps people in need, fights for their country, defends the rights of people, or is the first to do something amazing. Heroes become important to our history and culture. We celebrate our heroes on special days or during special events.

• Use (a minimum of 50) words to answer 'the why'

Customs & traditions

Different cultures

A custom is the way a group or person usually does something. A family may have many customs that make being part of that family special. A custom could be going to church on Sundays or taking family walks. Singing Christmas carols, opening gifts on Christmas Eve (or 'pakjesavond' at Sinterklaas), or wearing a home-made costume for 'carnaval' can also be family sutoms.

Different cultures

Traditions are the things that a group of people or families do the same way over a long period of time. A tradition becomes part of a culture when passed from one generation to the next. Having a Christmas tree, special food on holidays, selling your own stuff on 'Koningsdag' are traditions.

Creating a cookbook

Different cultures

Different cultures

When we celebrate our culture or tradition, we often cook our favorite meal, or a meal which is a typical for the specific celebration.

In this final part of the culture assignment we are going to create our own cookbook.

You can prepare this assignment at home and ask help from the adults who usually cook in your house (or do you do this yourself?). 

Make sure that you write down the recipe so that the teacher can create your favorite dish at home!

Creating a cookbook

Different cultures

Please select a favorite traditional family recipe to share with the class.

The recipe you select does not need to be fancy. It should be a typical meal, side dish, or dessert that your family loves and may eat often or just on special occasions.

We would love to hear all about it!

On the next slide is the recipe form.

Copy this in your Word document and fill it out completely and in detail.
