THANKSGIVING DAY

http://www.isabelperez.com/thanksgiving.htm

 Our school is in the second year of a project to let our students know about the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals. These goals were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity.

The 17 SDGs are integrated—they recognize that action in one area will affect outcomes in others, and that development must balance social, economic and environmental sustainability. In this video, you can know what are the 17 SDGs:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G0ndS3uRdo

We are also working to let our students know about the importance to develop soft skills. Add to this padlet short videos about any of these topics or any other topic that you consider interesting and share them.
