The making of Tapas-day

We recieved an assignment: to make tapas. We decided to make bruschetta and olives and feta. We did have a budget on 100 NOK, we used 98 of them :-)

This is what we did:

1. The first thing we did was to buy the food.

2. This is what we bought.

3. First, we cut the tomato,onion and garlic and basilicum into small
pieces.

4. Then we mixed it together in a bowl with salt, pepper and oil.

5. Putting olives and feta-cheese on toothpicks.

6. Frying the bread in olive-oil.

7. Then rubbing the bread with garlic.

8. Taking the tomato and onion- mix on the bread. We had too much
bread left so we put some tzatziki on them.

Dear friends of Norway

Paella isn’t the only typical food in Spain. We have different typical food "pa amb tomàquet, butifarra..."

The bullfighting is forbidden in Catalonia.

It’s very cold in winter.

Most of Spanish people don’t make siesta. They work all day.

Answers to Rita and Aya:)

Dear Rita and Aya,

-We agree with your statements. I’m Ainoa and my favorite sport is paddle. Andrés’s hobbies are riding a bicycle, playing with my friends and listening to music.
In Catalonia bullfighting is forbidden but in the rest of Spain they still have it. We are against bullfighting. We have cold winters here but not as cold as yours. The king of Spain is Juan Carlos I, but we don’t like him very much.
What’s your favorite hobby? :P

Here is some little thing we have learned:

· Spain borders to 7 countries

· That your national day is 12 October

· Teide is the highest mountain in your country

· Spain have 15 counties

Maybe you can correct us if we learned something we was not correct.

Next week we are going to make Tapas.

Letter from Norway: Kevin, Laia and David

How are you guys? I hope you are fine. We are doing a PowerPoint about Spain and Norway, and we wondered if you could give us some advice. We are compering Spain and Norway about what is similar and what is different. This is what we have learned.( Maybe you could tell us is something is not correct.

Spain is the 5^th largest country in Europe and the 52^nd largest country. The Spanish national dish is Paella. There are as many tourists in Spain than there are inhabitants. Spain has three different climates the Mediterranean climate, oceanic climate and the semiarid climate.

- Do you like paella.

- Is it warm the whole year.

- Why is Spain so good at football.

- Do you feel the Euro crisis.

We know that you are working on a project about Norway, so we are looking forward to hearing what you have learned. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Kind regards: David, Colin and Junaid

Dear Andrea, Paula and Alex

How are you? In the last few days we have worked with a presentation about Spain. We have learned some facts about Spain and the Spanish culture. We have also compared how it is in Spain and how it is in Norway. In this letter we are going to tell you a little bit about what we have learned.

Here are some facts we have learned:

-There is mainly three climatic zones in Spain. Mediterranean climate, continental climate and oceanic climate.

- Spain is a democracy and a parliamentary constitutional monarchy. That mean that they have a king but he can’t really decide or change much.

-The king is called Juan Carlos 1, and the Prime minister is called Mariano Rajoy.

- The national day is celebrated on October 12^th. This date marks that Christopher Columbus discovered America, although he thought he was in India.

- The official language in Spain is Spanish. But other languages live side by side such as Catalan in Catalonia, Galician in Galicia and Basque in the Basque Country.

- The national day is celebrated on October 12^th. This date marks that Christopher Columbus discovered America, although he thought he was in India.

- The capital in Spain is Madrid. Madrid is also the biggest city, and the population is over 3,2 million people.

-Flamenco is a typical Spanish dance. It was originated in a place called Andalucía in Spain. It is originally a gypsy dance. The dancers often play on castanets while they are dancing and it is much footwork. The music for the dance is guitar, song and clapping.

- Siesta is in the middle of the day, when the Spaniards is going to sleep. They close all the stores, except off those shops that is in areas with lots of tourists. As I said it is a couple off hours in the Middle off the day, usually from 2 to 5 pm. The reason why they do this is because before it was too hot to work at that time off the day. But today most of the shops have have things like air-condition. Why they do it now is mostly because it is a habit.

Questions to you:

- What do you eat at christmas?

- How long is your school day? When do you start, and when does it end?`

- How long has Mariano Rajoy been prime minister in Spain?

We are looking forward to hear from you, and hope you have learned a little bit about Norway.

- Vanessa, Maria and Ingrid
