Change of culture?

Next week we celebrate Halloween. But in Spain we’ll be on holiday, just for a change. However, in other places… click on pic

Is this a change of culture?   Is there no respect any more?                  Do children behave worse now than some years ago?

Where are we?

If you happen to read this roadsign while you’re driving, where are you?

El Che

He is one of the icons of our time and therefore,   tons of books, pictures, articles… about him.  Of course there are also films based on his life, what is commonly known as a biopic. We have chosen one of them, the one Steven Soderbergh made some years ago.Watch this short document and try to answer the questions.

If you want more information about him or about icons in general, pages 92 to 95 in your book will help you.
