ALP - BASIC ELEVEN

Dear Basic Eleven students:

Your ALP assignment this month is about “ International parties and festivals”. Remember to use relevant vocabulary from the book and a variety of tenses. Include time clauses with before, after and when to describe what happens at those celebrations.
Work individually or in pairs. Choose from the following list of parties/festivals:

1. The San Diego Street Scene
2. Spain’s La Tomatina
3. The New Orleans Jazz Fest
4. Glastonbury Music Festival
5. Ko Pang Ngan’s Full Moon Party
6. The San Fransisco Bay to Breakers
7. Nevada’s Burning Man
8. Germany’s Oktoberfest
9. Pamplona’s San Fermin Festival
10. Brazil’s Carnaval
11. Dusseldorf Carnival
12. St Patrick's Festival
13. Munich Oktoberfest
14. Edinburgh International Festival
15. Paris Grand Parade
16. SWEDEN Kiruna Snow Festival
17. ITALY Venice Carnival
18. BELGIUM Binche Carnival
You should do research about the festival you were assigned. You may consult the internet or books. After learning about your celebration you should put all important information in a well-organized presentation that will follow the INTRODUCTION - BODY - CONCLUSION format. You will use your own words for your presentation. Repeating like a parrot what's on the net won't lead you to getting 3 points. My “orientation page” will help you organize your material. You should also make a poster with pictures to illustrate your speech. It could be done with pictures sticked to cardboard or you can make a PowerPoint presentation and upload it to our system through the ICPNA web site. Feel free to ask questions about the ALP in class.
