If you are willing to do so, I will be guiding you through it and supplementing here and there with other materials or resources.<\/p>\n<p>You could start having a look at Unit 12, Let&#8217;s Celebrate.\u00a0The vocabulary and topic of this unit are specially useful for the Mediation paper in Certificaci\u00f3n exam (festivals, traditions, celebrations, public events).

They contain\u00a0 some of the basic vocabulary on this topic:<\/p>\n<p>PICTURE A \u2013 shows a bride who has applied henna to her hands in intricate patterns. This is a common tradition in the Islamic world in particular.<\/p>\n<p>PICTURE B \u2013 The bride and groom cut the wedding cake together. This is symbolic as the first act they perform together as a married couple.<\/p>\n<p>PICTURE C \u2013 The bride throws her bouquet behind her without looking. The unmarried girls try to catch it in the belief that the one who catches it will be the next to marry.<\/p>\n<p>PICTURE D \u2013 At the reception after a wedding, speeches are traditionally given by the father of the bride, the groom and the best man.<\/p>\n<p>I might write again during the week.<\/p>\n<p>Above all, stay safe and well!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi everybody, This is the\u00a0LESSON PLAN FOR THE PRESENT WEEK: Revision Unit 11: This is a\u00a0Reading\u00a0exercise about Filmmaking you can use to recall and revise the language related to the topic: Filmmaking1\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Filmmaking2 Unit 12: Given that we are working with a book that is also aimed at self-study, in my view the&hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/2020\/10\/18\/b2-2-groups-a-b-week-23rd-to-26th-march\/\" class=\"more-link\">Seguir leyendo <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">B2.2 Groups A\/B Week 23rd to 26th March<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":448,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-b2-2","without-featured-image"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/448"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31,"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30\/revisions\/31"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edublog.educastur.es\/lockdownblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
