= __Room 1 has been learning about ‘Cultures in Our Community’.__  = = = media type="custom" key="2383593"
 * First the children found out what a culture is and what a community is.
 * They then defined beliefs, rituals, traditions and values.
 * The children were then able to identify 7 cultures in the community they live in.
 * After that they brainstormed all the questions that they wanted to answer about these cultures.
 * They had to select appropriate questions and we made a questionnaire that they could ask people they knew from their particular culture they were studying.
 * After all the information was gathered they had to organise it onto the graphic organisers.
 * We then discussed the information and looked for similarities and differences between cultures in our community.
 * Each child then had to write a similarity and difference from each of the sections: funerals, dance, music, celebrations, weddings and names.
