Seventh Task ;)

Now is time to put everything together!
Talk to your group and assign to each person the following aspects of the USA holiday you chose during the Third Task: origin, celebration date, activities, menus (if any) and two pictures. Elaborate a Word document per group and once it is ready (containing all those aspects and whatever you wish to include), send it to me via Email.
