"Sandy explains the Chanukah dreidel game, and then her class plays it."

Reason: cultural diffusion is the spread of cultural ideas, practices, or products from one group to another. Sandy teaching the dreidel and the class adopting it is a clear, voluntary example of that spread. The Spanish forcing Christianity is imposed cultural change (assimilation), Bjorg hosting a Swedish meal is also diffusion but on a smaller, individual scale, and the colonists resisting British culture is the opposite of diffusion.
