Project: Cultural Event

Grade: 8th and 9th


Due: November 25 and March 1
Objectives:
1. Students will be learning outside the classroom and have the opportunity to
work in unique environments.
2. Students will apply what they already know to what they are learning about.
3. Students will be exposed to new people, ideas, and cultures.
Project details:
Students will be required to do two cultural events throughout the year. There are
two different formats the cultural events can be turned in as. Each student will do
one of each.
1. Written Assignment: The student will write a detailed paper describing
where they went and when. They will share what they learned and how it
applies to something they have learned in class this year. They will also write
how they benefited or did not benefit from going and why. They will also
write if they recommend this event to other students and why.
2. Spoken Assignment: The student will give a detailed 10-minute speech on
their cultural event. They will share what they learned and how it applies to
something they have learned in class this year. They will say how they
benefitted or did not benefit from going and why. They will also say if they
recommend this event to other students and why.
Cultural Event Ideas:
Below are 5 places students can visit and learn outside of the classroom. These can
be used as cultural events, but do not feel limited to only using these events! All of
these locations are located 10 miles or less from the school.
