In this section, you’ll find downloadable lesson plans related to a variety of cultures. While the term "cultures" often is used to refer to characteristics that are common within any one country, there are also multiple cultures within the boundaries of a country, as well as cultures that cross borders. Additionally, many multilingual people are also multicultural. The activities below encourage learners to use Englishes to explore cultures that interest them, and also to develop and enhance their ability to talk about their own cultures.

(If teachers use any of these lesson plans, we would appreciate it if they would acknowledge the author.)

If you would like to submit additional materials to this site, please see the Submission Guidelines.
