THE INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR THE ELIMINATION OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

This school year, our school has focused on activities designed for this day which work on the idea of the romantic love and how important is to eradicate it from our teenagers' vocabulary.

We're going to work with a project in which our students will draw and work with Spanish-English sentences from different advertisements and associations.

They'll make a huge poster to be hung with all the drawings and sentences.

Some of the pictures they'll work with are:

Our students will translate the selected sentences with their own drawings. We'll work in groups so we promote the collaborative work between boys and girls.

Please feel free to comment on your own works!!

Hope you enjoy it!!!!
