This page contains downloadable material for your Social Studies classes. For each unit there is the unit itself (the text together with some activities), a presentation which summarises the most important points and a glossary with the vocabulary that you may not know translated into Galician.
Click on the points you are interested in and you'll get to the Aula Virtual space where we've placed these materials. If the link doesn't work properly yet maybe we have not finished preparing that specific unit. Ask your teacher.
