For or Against Meat? Homework week 48


This week we read some texts about the consumption of meat and bugs. The production of meat causes much pollution to the environment (embedded water, for example), therefore it makes sense to reconsider our meat-eating habits. However there are also many reasons to eat meat, as many meat-lovers, would argue. Your homework for next week (due Tuesday 28th November) is to research and find some arguments FOR and AGAINST the consumption of meat (köttkonsumtion). Write them down and be ready to discuss on Tuesday when you'll have to switch roles and argue either FOR or AGAINST the cosumption of meat.

STUDENT PRESENTATIONS

STUDENT PRESENTATIONS The goal is to present ourselves and our school/culture in a short (2 min long) video. In groups decide on what aspect of Swedish culture/school you wish to include in your presentation. Look at the Features of Culture worksheet and your notes to come up with a good idea. Make a plan: who will say what, etc. Then take an iPad and go around school and make the video. You need to work fast, because this needs to be done today. The video should include:   a short presentation/greeting from every group member a short presentation of one aspect of Swedish culture or Mälarhöjdens skola If you click HERE you will find your group, as well as see who your penpal from North Carolina will be!
