This presentation was made on a course of seconds, also participated in some representative dances of Ecuador with all its costumes. They also used various technological instruments in which we could see the places of those who spoke as could be two projectors and some computers

many students organized by licensed spent talking about the culture and customs and also made a presentation of each province with a dance and students who spoke took place a similar clothes in which all differentiate.

 

what they did first was presented and and bring in a certain amount of people into the classroom then went on to talk about the provinces of Ecuador and make dance groups are presented and finally said goodbye and thanked for attention and for visiting its open house

open house was a bit Funny and good for the information and representative dances of those regions and the effort that people had to complete the presentation and also was a bit tired and tiring so in the classroom where we were was closed and there were many people in the room and it was very hot and images in what they placed the projector did not look good but the rest was good because the students explained the subject well

the conclusion is that the open house of English was to explain the many places and cultures that had demonstrated each culture as a represntativo dance of each region and well organized was because there were several people working for this job and if only they did in a cursoy was a bit tiring at quevarias people entered the classroom, the presentation was very good.

The International Workers' Day or May Day is the celebration par excellence of the world labor movement. It is a journey that has been commonly used to perform different social and labor demands in favor of the working classes by essentially socialist movements, anarchists and communists, among others.

Since its establishment in most countries, by agreement of the Socialist Workers' Congress of the Second International, held in Paris in 1889, it is a day of struggle and a tribute to the Martyrs of Chicago. These anarcho-syndicalists were executed in the United States to participate in the days of struggle for the achievement of the working day of eight hours, which originated in the strike that began on May 1, 1886 and its peak three days later, the May 4, at the Haymarket Riot.
