The document discusses several classroom activities involving learning about classmates and family histories. For the first activity, students asked classmates questions and took notes to learn something new about two of their peers. The second activity involved students thinking of things they've never done and tallying how many classmates have done those things. The third activity was for students to discuss and agree on the five greatest wonders of their home country, providing reasons for their choices. The final activity prompted students to prepare a short history of their own family, including details about grandparents, aunts/uncles, how parents met, where parents used to live when younger, how family life has changed, and special memories.
