Let's practice the physical description vocabulary! Could you guess who is who?
Here you will find baby pictures of Catalan Year 1 students. Will you be able to identify them? Why don't you have a try? Be aware that there is an intruder!
If you are not in Catalan Year 1 but still like to participate, you can send your answers to r.navas@bham.ac.uk.
Good luck to everyone!!

Arriya (The Stone)
“A place in the frontier;
Three lovers,
two families;
and a bet:
The stone.”
In a town in the Basque country border, two families are involved in a bet, and, dragged by it, three young lovers, unable to pull themselves out of the inertia of the society they live in, cross their own fates and see time pass them by. It is an endless duel they can not scape from.
