Lesson Summary

Culture includes the beliefs, customs, food, music, language, and traditions of a group of people.

Explanation

Culture is the way of life for a group of people. It includes the language they speak, the food they eat, the holidays they celebrate, the music they enjoy, and the stories they tell.
