Cultural Characteristics

     Today in class, we reviewed the quiz on the population pyramids that we took on Friday. I originally had a 42 out of 50, which is about an 84, but Mr. Schick gave me a point back for number twelve. Overall, I thought I did pretty well and that it wasn't too hard. It took up most of the class to go over all of the answers because we couldn't focus at all. We all kept getting distracted and getting off topic. After the review, we started to talk about cultural characteristics. We only just scratched the surface of the topic because we ran out of time. Cultural characteristics are parts of a group's everyday life. Its the ideas and themes in which the group will teach to all of the members. Having similar characteristics can link regions, but they can also divide them. Some examples of cultural characteristics are: language, religion, and ethnic heritage.
