On December 25th and 26th, families gather for more meals and visits with relatives. In Italy, Christmas preparations begin on December 8th with decorating trees and nativity scenes. On Christmas Eve, families have a large dinner with fish dishes. On Christmas Day, children find gifts and families enjoy an important meal with many courses and sweets. Celebrations continue through Boxing Day on December 26th and end on Epiphany on January 6th. Both countries have unique traditions but place strong emphasis on family gatherings and meals
Day of the dead
The document discusses the Day of the Dead celebrations in Mexico. It describes how the ritual originated thousands of years ago among indigenous peoples and was later incorporated into Catholic traditions. Families now visit gravesites to decorate them, tell stories about departed loved ones, and have picnics. Offerings like flowers, food, drinks and photos are left to welcome the spirits back for the day. The celebrations emphasize remembering and honoring the dead as part of the continuity of life.
Halloween customs
Halloween has its origins in an ancient Celtic festival called Samhain celebrated by the Celts in Ireland, the UK, and northern France approximately 2,000 years ago. On October 31st, the Celts believed the boundary between the living and the dead became blurred and ghosts would return to earth. They wore costumes made of animal heads and skins to disguise themselves from these spirits. Many modern Halloween traditions, such as carving pumpkins and trick-or-treating, have evolved from Celtic practices.
Traditional and modern
Britain has a strong tradition of observing religious and secular holidays and special occasions throughout the year, from Christmas and New Year celebrations focused around family gatherings, food, gifts and religious traditions, to summer seaside holidays, Halloween, Guy Fawkes Night and Boxing Day hunts. Holidays have evolved over time from their original religious meanings to include more commercial and leisure activities, though traditions like carol singing and exchanging Christmas cards remain an important part of British holiday culture. Modern holidays also include shorter weekend breaks, activity holidays, and holidays at Butlin's camps which offered organized entertainment in self-contained villages.
CHRISTMAS IN SPAIN
In Spain, Christmas is celebrated with public feasting and decorations in the streets. Preparations start early as people go shopping and decorate their homes. The nativity scene is an important symbol seen in public squares and houses. Christmas lottery draws are also a big tradition. The traditional Christmas Eve meal is enjoyed with family, and gifts are opened on Epiphany on January 6th. People celebrate the midnight service by walking the streets with music and celebrating well into the night.

Boxing day
Boxing Day is celebrated on December 26th, the day after Christmas. It is a national holiday in many countries where people spend time with family and friends eating leftover Christmas food. The name "Boxing Day" originated from several traditions, including servants receiving cash gifts called "Christmas boxes" from their masters on this day, charity boxes placed in churches on Christmas being opened on the 26th, and ships setting sail with money boxes for good luck that were later opened and donated to the poor.
Christmas stockings
Traditionally, small gifts like chocolate coins, homemade sweets, and toys were placed in Christmas stockings. Stockings originated from the tradition of children in England hanging their stockings near the fireplace on Christmas Eve in anticipation of gifts from Father Christmas. The history of the Christmas stocking dates back to 1823 when Clement Clarke Moore wrote "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" describing stockings hung near the fireplace awaiting gifts from Santa Claus. Instructions are provided on how to make a felt Christmas stocking including cutting out the stocking shape, gluing the sides together, adding a white felt trim, and decorating.

Remembrance day u4
Remembrance Day is observed in Commonwealth nations to honor armed forces members who have died in duty. It is marked annually on November 11th at 11am with a two-minute silence to remember those lost in wars. People wear poppies, which grew on World War I battlefields, as a sign of remembrance. Poppies are made by cutting red tissue paper into petal shapes and attaching them around a central black pom pom or folded paper onto a green-taped stick. The two-minute silence tradition began in 1919 when King George V asked the public to silently honor those who died in World War I.

Traditions in mexico Eeman, Rithanya y Anna
In Mexico, they celebrate the Day of the Dead in November by decorating with Papel Picado banners made from cut tissue paper. The different colors used in the banners - purple, blue, red, yellow, green, and white - each represent a different meaning related to death. Another common decoration is "Flores de Papel Crepe", fake paper flowers made from scrunched and folded tissue paper that are believed to guide souls to altars honoring the dead. These colorful decorations have both beautiful artistic designs and significant cultural meanings related to Mexican traditions for remembering and honoring those who have passed away.
Cultural feedback
The document summarizes feedback from Maddie and Riley about videos they watched from Mexican students about Day of the Dead traditions. They found the altar decorated for Day of the Dead to be very impressive with its colorful and creative decorations including beautiful candles and intricate skeletons. They enjoyed learning how to make "papel picado" paper cutouts themselves, though they thought the Mexican students' designs were more decorated and beautiful. Maddie and Riley also learned about "Las Catrinas" skulls and skeletons from Diego and Renata's explanation and were impressed by the Mexican students' artistic skills in drawing them. They thanked the Mexican students for their videos and hoped they enjoyed their own celebrations as much.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Feedback noviembre hannah y ruby
- 1. By Ruby and Hannah Presentation Feedback
- 2. Presentation Feedback • We liked many things about the presentations, such as the background music, the level of detail and the variety of topics used. However we were particularly impressed by the amount of English used and the high level of it.
- 3. What’ve we learnt? • We have learnt about the cultural difference between Spain and England. Such as , the day of the dead and the activities people take part in. • The day of the dead is a festival where Spanish and Mexican people will remember their loved ones and visit them. • They decorate graves and light the streets up with candles. • They also have big red/pink flowers they use to decorate.
- 4. Cultural Similarities • One similarity is that both England and Spain/Mexico have a day dedicated to death. One is called Halloween and one is called the day of the dead. • Another similarity is that we both dress up and decorate our houses! • Another similarity is that it is both once a year, making it extra special. • Our final similarity is that they both associate with food, Halloween we go to peoples houses and gets sweets. The day of the dead they make food offerings for their (dead) loved ones.
