Cultural diversity refers to the different customs of a society, among which we can mention: clothing, cuisine, religious manifestations, traditions, and also the differences in languages, customs, accessories, utensils, lifestyles, values, and forms of artistic expression.
The main propagators of Brazilian culture are the European colonizers, the indigenous population, and African slaves. Later, Italian, Japanese, German, Polish, Arab, and other immigrants contributed to the cultural plurality of Brazil.
Cultural diversity enriches and develops societies, making it essential to value and protect it, promoting mutual understanding and respect.

ACTIVITY PROPOSAL
BOW AND ARROW
It is a tool used to launch arrows. It consists of a bow, which is a curved piece with a string, and an arrow, which is like a thin stick with a tip. When we pull the string and release it, the arrow is launched forward. This movement makes the arrow go up and then down, following a curved path due to force and gravity.
BUILD
As a team, build a prototype of a bow and arrow. Use the parts available in the structural robotics technology kit. Carefully follow each step of the assembly and testing. All members must actively participate in the process and contribute ideas and solutions.
CONTINUE
After building the prototype, share your experience with your colleagues and answer the questions.
- How many pieces were used to create the arrow?
- What is the function of the elastic in the prototype?
- The purpose of the black connector is to support the arrow. Is this statement correct?
Then, save all the materials used.
