“Spice of Life” video instructions.
To teach peers about students’ and cultural background, they choose one spice (or herb, vegetable, or fruit) and create a 1-minute “foodie” video showing they — or a family member — preparing a dish with their chosen ingredient. But this isn’t a typical foodie video. This is their chance to teach their classmates not only about the yummiest aspects of their culture but also enlighten them about the role the students’ spice has played in world events as an agent of peace or war.
