INTRODUCTION:
November is a month full of cultural and festive events. In many countries, All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day are celebrated at the beginning of the month, days dedicated to remembering deceased loved ones. In the United States, the fourth Thursday in November is Thanksgiving Day, a holiday focused on gratitude and family togetherness, with historical roots dating back to the first European settlers.
Additionally, November is often a significant month for planning and preparing for December festivities. Internationally, various sporting, cultural and commercial events are celebrated, including the well-known "Black Friday", which marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season with significant discounts and promotions.
In short, November is a month of transition, reflection and preparation, rich in traditions and events that vary significantly between different cultures and regions of the world.

Well, were in this section we are going to talk about the eTwinning things we did in November:
Firstly, it will unite a tricked video with children and children from Greece. The video call was very fun, we all talked a lot, and we were quite interested in what they explained to us. We have learned many characteristics of this country through the video call, and we have also met other very friendly people. When we have finished the video call we have talked about what we thought to say if we liked it or not, from our point of view we liked it since it was the first and only time that we have made a video call with students from other institutes.
Here we have a photo of the day that we did the video call.
