PDI - GALICIANISE YOURSELF: "Our ancestors, the Celts"

 

As you already know,  “Galicianise yourself” or “Galeguízate” is the title of our PDI for this school year 2022-2023, and it is related to the tangible and intangible cultural heritage. Examples of tangible cultural heritage include traditional clothing, tools, buildings, artwork, monuments, and modes of transportation. On the other hand, intangible cultural heritage refers to things that are not physical items but exist intellectually, such as language, rituals, traditions, legends, music, dance, food…

 

In our first approach to the topic, we introduced ourselves as Galicians, highlighting our traits, our roots, our essence as Galicians. Well, in this ocassion we want to find out more about our ancestors, the Celts, and see our connections with Ireland. We present our findings in an interactive infographic made collaboratively among all the students in year 5 and 6: 

     1.- The Celts, main facts - 6C

     2.- The wheel of the year - 6B

     3.- Celtic connections: Coruña & Ireland - 6A

     4.- Celtic words - 5A - 5B - 5C

Ready for a Celtic experience? Take a leaf of an oak tree and, with it in your hands, be a Celt for a while!
