ALL HALLOW'S EVE MAGAZINE

The project that has been planned for this Halloween is the edition of a magazine about "All-Hallow's Eve", which is the original Irish tradition that now is called "Halloween".

Each grade will prepare thier own magazine and these editions will be presented to the primary section on Wednesday, October 29th. There will also be an exhibition for the parents on Thursday, October 30th.

All of the project will be prepared in the classroom with the Spanish and English teachers. The materials we will be using are: color paper, old magazines that we can cut out, markers, card board for the covers, glue, scissors, and the content material that is assigned to your team. Remember that the objective is to investigate and share the historical origins of this tradition. Forget about horror presented in Hollywood films!!

There will be several sections: We will need a front and a back cover pages. A table of contents, an introductory article or presentation. An article comparing All-Hallow's Eve with Hanal-Pixan, legends and stories that tell about All-Hallow's Eve, word games, illustrations, cartoons, amazing facts, poems, coloring pages, crafts, receipes, etc. It is very important that every body participates!

We will start investigating about this on Thursday, October 23 in Computer Lab class. Here are some links we can check:
