Fall Festival

Yes!! our group participated in the Fall Festival!!



This year’s topic was “Myths” and “Rites” so the group decided which to research further.
They formed four groups and each one of them decided on the topic to present.
 
“The Myth Researchers” – asking questions on the most common myths among university students.

“The Ethylics”– interview with a group of Mexica dancers, a very typical Mexican rite.
“The Ghost Students” – a presentation on the most emblematic symbols in any Day of the Dead altar.
 “The Imaginaries” – A creative tale about a character that could become a myth.
 
Please enjoy each group's work. Be generous with the mistakes, they are still learning. We all had great fun doing it, and we hope you enjoy it too.

Halloween


Dear students,
As promised, I'm sharing some photos of the 'ghost', 'pumpkins', 'witches' and 'ginger bread men' we had to celebrate Halloween. I'll upload more, as soon as I have more photos.

Also remember to practice the tongue twister of your choice, it helps pronunciation.
"If two witches were watching two watches, which witch would watch which watch?"
