TO THE TEACHER
This project is based on several didactic units linked by the different festivals and celebrations held in English-speaking countries, especially in the United Kingdom and in the United States. All units cover approximately 35 hours tuition. Having this as the main point of the project, you will find interactive activities related to these festivals. Most of them are self-correcting, so that the student can improve the learning in an autonomous way. All the activities are based on reading and writing and everything is presented on a webpage format. What can you find in this project ? •
An Introductory Unit : this unit introduces the topic
of ‘Festivals’ in a general way. An Initial
Assessment sheet is also included in case you want to use it

activities can be found at the end of this document.
