Les Animaux à South Hero!

In the 1/2 and the 3/4 classes, we are learning animal names for the pets and the animals at our homes and farms. The 3/4 are also putting these animals into individual books using the sentences I like (J'aime....) and I don't like (Je n'aime pas...) We graphed the animals in our homes, comparing with more (plus) and less (moins). We are playing games with the animals, on cards and with plastic models.

le 6 décembre - St. Nicolas Traditions in France

"In many places St. Nicholas is the main gift giver. His feast day, St. Nicholas Day, is December 6, which falls early in the Advent season. Some places he arrives in the middle of November and moves about the countryside, visiting schools and homes to find out if children have been good.

Other places he comes in the night and finds carrots and hay for his horse or donkey along with children's wish lists. Small treats are left in shoes or stockings so the children will know he has come.

Where St. Nicholas is prominent, his day, not Christmas, is the primary gift giving day. Parties may be held on the eve, December 5th, and shoes or stockings left for St. Nicholas to fill during the night. Children will find treats of small gifts, fruit or nuts, and special Nicholas candies and cookies. St. Nicholas gifts are meant to be shared, not hoarded for oneself."
