What is a culture?

What is a culture?

the ideas, customs, and social behaviour of a particular people or society (of a group of people)

How does culture influence the way we use language?

Why do we read literature from different parts of the world?

What texts or stories have you read that are from another culture?

Our culture, whether traditional or modern, influences how we behave in the world. It affects our values and attitudes, how we see ourselves and how we see, treat and relate to others. When we learn about other cultures, we deepen our understanding of others.

Activity!

3. Write out the instructions on how to make this dish
4. If you have any time left, make a drawing of the dish

Example: Dutch dish

'Oliebollen' (oil balls) is a traditional Dutch Dish

Oliebollen are basically deep-fried balls of dough that are centred with raisins or currents and dusted with powdered sugar.

When do we eat it? On new year's eve!

How do you make it?

1. Break up compressed yeast and stir into warm milk.                                                                                                                                                        Let stand for a few minutes to dissolve
2. Sift flour and salt into a large bowl. Stir in yeast mixture and egg until smooth.                                                                                                  Cover the bowl and set in a warm place to rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
3. Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
4. Use two metal spoons to shape scoops of dough into 12 balls. Drop them carefully into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Remove doughnuts with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
5. Dust doughnuts with confectioners' sugar. Transfer to a serving platter and dust with more confectioners' sugar.
