OUR CULTURE
In groups we work some basic topics about Spanish and Catalan culture to explain to the E-Twinners. First we create some questions, then we gather some information asking to teachers, searching in internet, etc and finally we group all the ideas together and present it.


Our school is called Sagrada Família. It is in Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain). We are 47 students in our grade. We are in first grade ESO.
