  9. Social Relationships 5 observations

  10. Proper Etiquette Bathroom Etiquette- I remember in elementary school going to the bathroom was known to be disruptive, or a big deal. I wonder how this will change in Jamaica Eating Etiquette- In school here, I didn’t enjoy the food. (Pizza, teriyaki chicken, etc. I wouldn’t eat. So I want to see the types of food Jamaican children get in school, and if they actually enjoy it.

  11. Etiquette Continued Helping Out- It’s polite to hold doors open for other people in America, or pick up something someone dropped and hand it to them, (when on the street) but it may be different in Jamaica. Dress Etiquette- I only know the styles of Jamaica from word of mouth and music videos, but I do want to see if their modern style is different from our own and if their traditional style is interesting.

  12. Romantic Relationships In chapter 5, the discussion of how men/ women show their interest in another was interesting. Here- Some men holler, smile, wave, buy you drinks, or just come straight to you and talk to you. Other places- men whistle or holler to catch a girls attention Jamaica- I’m curious to see the difference if there Is any.

  13. Adjusting to a new culture Chapter 6 Remember that just as you judge from your cultural standpoint, you are being judged from theirs. —PCV Fiji

  14. 2 Experiences • Initial enthusiasm- This is packed with excitement about being in the new environment and having a positive attitude about all the new occurrences. • Culture shock- Homesick, no routine, feeling vulnerable.

  15. Personally • I don’t think I will experience culture shock. • 1. Because we will only be around for 1 week. • 2. I think I already like Jamaican culture. • 3. We will be in hotels. • 4. It’s Jamaica (but I could be wrong).

  16. But just In-case we do • Coping strategies: *Learn new ways of doing things; *Learn to do things you’ve never done before; *Stop doing things you can no longer do

  17. Coping Strategies contd. *Learn to live and work in an environment where you speak a foreign language; *Get used to various new and unusual phenomena; *Learn to live without all kinds of familiar phenomena.

  18. Words that might help • ALIAS- Dangerous/ violent • Bashment- Party • Card- to fool someone • Coil- money • Ease- up- lighten up

  19. Mostly excited about Classrooms Children’s attitudes towards us Music The FOOD Dancing Water Animals Culture

  20. Dancing in Jamaica In America, I’m aware of all the different types of dance. But I wonder how it differs or stays similar in Jamaica….
