October 26, 2015 With Andrea Guillaume The Four Gentleman, brush painting by Bruce Young

Search your memory for a flower or plant that is important in your life story (as an individual or as a member of a cultural group). Your reasons might be literal or symbolic. If no plant comes to mind, that’s okay. That’s an interesting story too. Prepare to tell 2 or 3 of your tablemates the one- minute version of the story of your noble plant. Feel free to find an image of your noble plant on your smart device to share as a visual aid.

Listen to each story. Look for connections across the stories. What do you wonder? Might others in the room have the same connection? What conclusions about culture need further testing?

Based on the connections or themes across the stories, develop an interview question to ask people at other tables. The question will let you gather more information related to your table talk connections and conclusions.

Find and interview someone from another table. You interview each other. Begin by introducing yourselves. Give your name, site, target language, and teaching context. Ask the question your group developed. Record some brief notes. Repeat with a second person from a different table.

Quickly share brief answers to the group’s question. What new insight about plants and culture can you draw? What do you wonder next? Be prepared to share one insight.
