  4. Two elements… • Material culture – is tangible – it has a physical reality. • Non-material culture – are things that don’t have a physical reality, such as values, beliefs and religion.

  5. Important terms…reminder. • Habit- • a repetitive act by an individual. • Custom- • when an entire group does it. • Tradition- • the same as a custom-the term implies longevity. • Folk culture (sometimes called local culture)- • the enduring, traditional practices of a people. • Popular culture- • the rapidly changing tastes and customs of a group. • Folk Culture becoming Pop Culture
