Story Heroes Across Cultures: Discovering Values Through Stories

Students join a live video call with the partner class, introduce themselves, and share a favorite story from their own culture. They listen closely and ask one friendly question each.

Students read a story sent by the partner class in small groups and note its heroes, problems, and values on a shared chart. They discuss what each character's choices show about traditions and beliefs.

Groups compare their characters and values with their own stories and write short notes on similarities and differences. They prepare simple explanations of their community's traditions for the partner class.

Students join a second video call to present their comparisons to the partner class and answer questions respectfully. Together, both classes agree on one shared conclusion about cultural differences and reflect on how they felt.
