Paqui wrote on the blackboard the steps we must follow like:
1.- Name and author
2.-Commissioner
3.-Desciption
4.-Why is a Baroque painting or sculpture.
The first in explain as him scuplture was Diego with the Penitent Magdalen:

Then was Ana de la Fuente with the Surrender of Breda:
(Diego Velázquez)

Then was Ángel with The Night Watch:

Finally was Manuel Cuz with The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp:

All of them explained a little of each project because they had to summerized to give the opportunity to the classmates to present their projects.The class was very interesting and we learnt a lot.
I don't remember anything more about the class if you think I can improve it with another information please tell me!!

Paqui why I can't correct the space between the phrases??
Hello Dani,
Maybe it was a temporary problem. I had been able to correct it right now. I can´t see the pictures. Only a blank space where they are supposed to be. Maybe they are experiencing the same problems as Blackberry.
Here you have some corrections:
-You have to say "make a presentation" instead of "do a presentation".
- On the blackboard
- The Dutch, instead of the Netherlands
- Jesus Christ
There are other mistakes: i hope your clasmates correct them.
Put the names of the paintings or sculptures in Italic font.
You could also explain your project a little bit. Have a nice end of the weekend and try the challenge. This time it´s very easy.
Hi Dani,
very good journal but one thing, in the pharagraph after manuel's project you have written: "we learnt a lot" and it's "we have learned a lot"
bye see you
