Nada Salem shares her final observations and solutions for teaching cultural concepts in the classroom. Mary Chang offers personal observations on how it feels to live in another culture and provides sample lesson plans based on comparing nutritional standards. YANA discusses using the Ah-Ha! Moment to make cultural comparisons and provides a list of comparison activities for both language and culture.
