Shocking Culture

This week in class we learned about the different cultures and how they are completely different but also similar to Americans. We played this card game, and Sal taught each table a different game and who every won the most games would rotate to a different table. But when the winners got to the new table, they came to realize that they were playing a different game. In my group, our game was you needed to match up the different shapes with each other and an Ace would beat all of the other cards. But when we had a new member come tonite group and she thought that you could match up the numbers and it didn't matter what shape it was. I thought that was a great activity to show how individuals deal with culture shock.

All Abord!

In class on Friday, we played this game. We had originally 16 people on a boat and there would only end up having 9 people left on the boat. I feel that there were certain people that were thrown off that shouldn't have been thrown off and vise versus. I beloved that the reason why some were thrown off and others were not is because the students went directly down the line and decided whether or not they are strong enough to stay on the boat. I also feel that if the student chose who should stay on the boat, based on strength, stamina, age, and occupation.
