Few people predicted the beginning of the new year like it was in 2021. The news
from our partner schools in Europe said that even there the distance learning
was on.
Before Xmas, Slovak school received a package of books related to
celebrations and Christmas time in different countries. Thanks to them we peeked
into holiday habits of children from Britain, Greece, Germany, Italy or Spain.
The 3rd Graders from 3B read a book from Usborne Publishing House called
Christmas Around the World. Every student was leafing through her/his book and
could enjoy the atmosphere of reading and learning new things in English. In the
Year 4, with 4A pupils, we read a story called A Small Christmas Tree with a
happy ending. Students also learnt that there are different habits in different
countries. They also worked with a story "In The World Little Jesus Isn´t The
Only One Who Delivers Christmas Presents" and The book called World of Cookies
for Santa inspired them to prepare some Xmas sweets with their mums.
Even during
online education, we tried to develop the theme of multiculture. That´s why the 7th
Graders did a reading activity and worked with texts from the book "Celebrations
Around The World" although in this case they have to wait for coming back to
school to be able to touch the real book and leaf it.
