In this part we had to talk and listen to an adult who lives or works in our local area. But we
couldn’t decide who could be. Thus we made an observation. We watched and made portraits of the people who passed that day out of our school.

was 67 years old. He was born in the neighborhood.

the central park and talk, laugh while their children were playing.

When he finished his story we saw that he was very excited from his memories and moved…
He thanked us that we gave him the chance to remember so many things.
We express our gratitude too as through his eyes and his memories we had the chance to fantasize the way
people lived in the past and to realize how things change and affects peoples’ lives.
