Understanding the culture of other nations contributes to the development of responsible citizens in a democratic society. A classroom teaching team proved these activities to be successful. Five initial lessons introduce students to the study of China by teaching Chinese geography. To enhance cultural understanding, 10 additional lessons focus on the following aspects of Chinese culture: (1) flags, (2) agriculture, (3) calligraphy, (4) calendar, (5) inventions, (6) karate, (7) tangrams, (8) crafts, (9) folk tales, and (10) Confucius. The unit culminates with plans for preparing Chinese dinner, having an open house, or organizing a homeroom meeting. Each lesson includes learner outcomes, materials, and implementation instructions for carrying out the activities. The lessons may be taught as a class activity or completed individually by students. A bibliography and supplementary materials are appended. (SM)
