Questions to discuss (feel free to choose the question(s) you want to respond to):

1) Which cultures live together in your country? Do these cultures strongly differ from yours? In which way?
2) Is your cultural identity reflected by the way you dress, behave, think etc?
3) What, do you think, makes your culture special? What beliefs and values do you share with the people from your culture?
4) What national or international movie is of cultural value to you? Can you explain why?
5) What kind of music in your country/ region displays your culture? Can you also name an artist or band?
6) Can you name a piece of art that is of cultural value to you or your country? Can you also tell what its value is?

Tolerance site
Great site for teaching tolerance! You should check it out!

March 21st is Spring Day in Europe.
This project is briefly the following:
Europe is at a crossroads. Ten new countries will join the European
Union in 2004 and maybe three more some years later. The European
Convention, with representatives from these 28 countries, is discussing
the future of Europe and writing its new Constitution. Make your voice
heard in this discussion. Spring Day in Europe aims to get schools to
organise an event on 21 March 2003 - their own Spring Day in Europe.
The event should increase pupils' and teachers' involvement in helping
to define a new Europe through the European Convention.
A group of volunteer teachers is available to help other colleagues
prepare Spring Day in Europe in their own countries and across borders.
This project can involve all teachers worlwide.
