This week (Or last week I don't remember) is Filipino Language Week and because the past 2 weeks we have been in lockdown so we haven't been able to celebrate it at school so for one of our lockdown tasks it was t make a doc/slide and answer some questions that the teacher has set about Filipino Language Week.

The questions were: 

1. What is the national language of the Philippines? 

2. Find out how to say Hello, Goodbye, Thank you and How are you.

3. What does the traditional dress look like? Find some pictures!

4. What are the traditional food dishes? Could you make any of them at home with what you have in your cupboards?

5. What is the National Anthem of the Philippines?

So I have made a doc answering all the questions 

Hear me out some of the stuff could be false/not correct bare with me I am not Filipino So here is the slide I've made 

Thank you for looking at my blog and if something is incorrect please comment on what it was because I don't know
