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 5th largest country in Europe and the 52nd 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 12th. 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 12th. 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.
