Cultural Exchanges
Wednesday, January 10th, 2007
I posted a story on Dave’s ESL Cafe about an interesting package I received in the mail the other day.
An unexpected package arrived at the school today. It didn’t blow up after a little shake, so I opened it.
Three school kids from a Midwest US school sent us a ‘Welcome to Our Culture’ pack. In the package were two US flags, a fuzzy soft football, as well as cutout pictures of cows, a dictionary, a map of the US, and of Hindu god Shiva. There was also a CD by Dirks Bentley, a video cassette of ‘an old cowboy movie’ called ‘The Sacketts’, and a two page note explaining their project.
Here is a picture of what they’d sent.
