Today we are going to plan a party for some guests from Tunisia and India.

Task 1- Using the information you have researched from the past two days design a menu that would include at least three dishes from each country. Don’t forget to include a tasty dessert. Then you will write a paragraph explaining why you chose the dishes you picked. Think about choosing items you would like to try as well as having a balance of meat and vegetable dishes.


 Task 2- Your second task is to draw a picture of your gathering. You must include at least four of your guests dressed in their traditional clothing which we have learned about in the lessons.
