today in my year 9 social studies class i had a bit of fun.
i told the kids that part of the reason i came here was to be apart of cultural transmission...me learning about their culture and in turn me teaching them about mine. i have done a great deal of learning abotu kiwi and maori culture, so i thought id return the favor....
so i taught them how to...
- call the dawgs - after some practice i will video tape them and put it up here. that should be some quality entertainment.
- use "bless her heart" correctly
- correctly pronouce Y'all
- figure out what an Uga is
lessons for later...
- correct pronouciation of the word Georgia...Jawja.
- what are grits.
- why everythign Orange is awful...gators, tigers, vols, etc.
oh the educators daily stress...what important knowledge i have to impart to these minds....
