NEW PROJECT: KNOWING YOUR ECOLOGICAL SIDE!!!!

Hi again guys!!!

We would like to know how ecological you are in your real life that is why you are going to follow these instructions to share this information with your classmates.

1) You are going to record a tiny film in which you are the main character so, take your video camera or your mobile and try to show us your habits from the morning till night underlining those habits that are right or wrong in terms of ecology. Of course you are your own narrator in the story.

2) Create a slogan for you to remember these habits and write it down on your blog-portfolio

3) Upload your video below your slogan on your blog-portfolio

This project is going to be marked as the other ones. GOOD LUCK!!!!

That´s all folks!!!
