Halloween traditions

It's celebrated on October 31st. When the Celts lived in Ireland, Britain and France over 2,000 years ago, they had a pagan agricultural festival on this day. They believed that the dead came back, so they used to light large bonfires to ward off evil spirits. Irish, Scots and other immigrants brought this tradition to North America in the 19th century.

The word "Halloween" is a shortened form of "All Hallows' Eve", meaning the evening before "All Hallows' Day" or "All Saints' Day", which is November 1st.

In the past, poor people went around asking for food in exchange of a prayer for the dead. Nowadays, this tradition was changed. In Ireland and the United States, children dress up and go door-to-door collecting candy. This is called "trick or treat", meaning that if they don't receive candy they will make a trick or a spell.

The carved pumpkin has become the symbol of Halloween. It's called "Jack-o-lantern", from an Irish legend about a man called Jack. He was a lazy farmer, who tricked the devil and refused to free him unless he agreed to never let Jack go into hell. So, Jack started to wander the Earth looking for a resting place, carrying a carved turnip with a candle inside.

Answer these questions:

·         When is Halloween celebrated? What does the word mean?

·         Who does the celebration come from? Was it a Christian celebration?

·         Who brought it to America and when?

·         How was it traditionally celebrated by poor people in the past?

·         How is it celebrated today?

·         Why is the pumpkin called "Jack-o-lantern"?

·         Do we celebrate it in Argentina?

·         Would you like to celebrate it here? Why / why not?

·         How would you like to dress in a Halloween costume party?

<>HAPPILY FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!WILL BE A PLEASURE MEETING YOU!!!!

José de San Martín died on 17 August 1850, in his house at Boulogne-sur-Mer, France. He requested in his will to be taken to the cemetery without any funeral, and to be moved to Buenos Aires, Argentina, afterwards. He also bequeathed his curved saber to the Argentine governor Juan Manuel de Rosas. Mariano Balcarce informed Rosas and the foreign minister Felipe Arana of San Martín's death. Balcarce oversaw the embalming of his remains and his temporary stay in a chapel of the city. He also sent the saber to Buenos Aires. The remains of San Martín were finally repatriated on May 29, 1880, during the presidency of Nicolás Avellaneda. The mausoleum was placed inside the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral. As San Martín was suspected of being a freemason, the mausoleum was placed in an expanded wing of the Cathedral.

His legacy. San Martín was first acclaimed as a national hero of Argentina by the Federals, both during his late life and immediately after his death. The unitarians still resented his refusal to aid the Supreme Directors with the Army of the Andes and his constant support to Rosas. The unitarian Bartolomé Mitre wrote a biography of San Martín, "Historia de San Martín y de la emancipación sudamericana" (Spanish: History of San Martín and the South American

emancipation). There are statues of San Martín in most cities of Argentina,such as The Cerro de la Gloria, monument to the Army of the Andes at Mendoza (left), as well as in Santiago de Chile and Lima. José Gil de Castro made the first portrait of San Martín, and several other artists would made works about him along the years. The most important films featuring San Martín are the 1970 El Santo de la Espada and the 2010 Revolución: El cruce de los Andes.

THANK YOU VICKY LUNA, THANKS 3° 1°!!!!!!

Argentina´s Flag Day

For 189 years the death of Manuel Belgrano, creator and one of the architects of independence, is celebrated on June 20, at the highest symbol of the nation with operations in various parts of the country
Argentina's flag was created by Manuel Belgrano and hoisted for the first time February 27, 1812, in Rosario, province of Santa Fe, where today lies the huge monument to the flag. In the midst of the struggle for Independence of the United Provinces of Río de la Plata Belgrano decided to take the colors of blue and white cockade, which was already in use since the revolution patriotic May 1810. The origin of the choice of these colors is not alone and it is still a subject of controversy, but the most secure version that is white and blue identified Bourbons dynastic house of French origin, in favor of the principles of constitutional monarchy, with which also coincided Belgrano.
On June 8, 1938, with the approval of Congress, the President of the Nation, Robert M. Ortiz, promulgated the Law 12361, which states the June 20 as Flag Day and national holiday in honor of Manuel Belgrano, who died on June 20, 1820.
