Question bank: Cultural Diversity and Territory

Let's imagine that in our city we have a neighborhood where many people from different countries live, such as Japan, Nigeria, Italy, and Lebanon. These people brought with them foods, music, dances, and traditions from their countries. Now, think about what you have already learned about the various customs and traditions that exist in Brazil. As a child, what do you think we can learn anew from these people from other places who live in our neighborhood? What are the cool things that each culture can bring that help us better understand and appreciate the diversity of the place where we live? Remember to give examples of foods, music, dances, and traditions from at least two different cultures.

Imagine that you are organizing a party at your school to celebrate the diversity of cultures in Brazil. Think about typical foods, music, and dances from different regions of our country. Now, write a short text explaining which foods, music, and dances you would choose for your party, and why they are important to showcase the cultural diversity of Brazil. Remember to talk about at least two different cultures and how they contribute to Brazilian culture.

In our city, we can find people who come from many different places in Brazil and the world. They bring with them their stories, foods, music, dances, and customs that gradually mix with what already exists here. This makes our culture richer and more colorful. Think of a typical dish from your family or a friend, and how it made its way here. Now, write about how this cultural mix helps make our city a more special place, and what we can learn from the traditions of other people who live near us.

In our city, we can find different types of foods, dances, music, and parties that came from distant places, such as feijoada that came from Africa and barbecue that has its origins in the traditions of the gauchos. These things that are part of community life are called culture and they mix and transform over time, forming new ways of living and celebrating life. Thinking about this, write about a typical party or a dish that you really like and explain what are the origins of these elements and how they show the influence of different cultures in our life in Brazil.
