  • A little background about Carnaval
    • Carnival, or Carnaval, is a festive season, which occurs immediately before Lent. 
      • It typically involves a public celebration or parade combining some elements of a circus, mask and public street party.  
      • It’s traditionally held in areas with a large Catholic population.
    • Traditionally during Lent, the six weeks directly before Easter, no parties or other celebrations were held, and people refrained from eating rich foods, such as meat, dairy, fats and sugar. 
      • In the days before Lent, all rich food and drink had to be disposed of, so people threw a big party with the whole community to finish all of it. 
      • This is thought to be the origin of Carnival!  
    • The exact origin of the name "Carnival" is disputed, but some state that the word comes from the Late Latin expression “carne vale”, which means "farewell to meat."
  • ¡Comemos y miramos los videos!
La tarea, or the HOMEWORK: CATCH UP!!
