Semester Reflection, American Culture

Semester Reflection, American Culture

          Every week on Friday we have American culture class. This class we learned about a lot of aspects of American society. We learned American Jazz, The Presidential Elections, Twentieth Century American Art, Superheroes, The American Labor Movement and American Political Music.

One of the subjects I still impressed was the class we did on the American Labor Movement. In the United State there was a big accident named Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire. It was really new for me and I was shocked about that. It was sad and important part of American history. Also, I enjoyed the class on American Political Music. I already know John Lennon’s songs but I didn’t know about what does his songs meaning. In that class I found Political meanings in his songs and his life story to be very interesting. Also, we learned about American politics and the elections. I participated in a debate on Barack Obama’s side. We watched and reviewed the video about the last debate and discussed that. We asked a lot of questions on Mitt Romney’s side and they asked us about Barack Obama’s electoral commitments. That was my first debate only speaking English, so I learned a lot. I like all subjects in this class. It was fun to work together each week with interesting people.
