Im Englischunterricht war das Thema der Unit 2 "Festivals, Feiertage und spezielle Feiern". Um an den entsprechenden Tagen von Oktober bis
Dezember mehr zu den Feierlichkeiten oder Festtagen zu erfahren, war der
Auftrag bzw. die Lernaufgabe oder sogenannte Task sich darüber zu informieren
und dann der Klasse zu präsentieren.Im folgenden Beitrag wird der amerikanische Feiertag vorgestellt:
HALLOWEEN
by Mario &
Shane (1.ORS)
What is the festival about?
Halloween means Hallows’ Evening. It is the evening before All Hallows’
Day, a Christian holiday, celebrated on the 1st of November. But that day was
important already in ancient times. On the 1st of November, Celtic peoples
celebrated the festival of Shamhuinn, which marked the beginning of winter and
the Celtic New Year.
Where do you celebrate it?
We
celebrate it with the family at home. We eat pumkin soupe and carve
faces in the pumkins with knives.
When?
We
celebrate it on 31st of October.
Who?
The
children go from house to house to get
sweets from other parents. Indeed, that’s
the origin of TRICK OR TREAT. Be aware, however, as the custom has changed!
Nobody is going to pray for you nowadays. Instead, if you don’t have a TREAT
for the children in front of your door, they will most likely play a TRICK on
you – that’s what TRICK OR TREAT is all about.
Why?
Because they celebrate the good harvest.
My personal opinion
I
like Halloween very much, because I like to carve faces into the pumkins and
make some pumkinnsoup. It’s funny to go from house to house to get sweets and
then have a little PARTY!!!!
My personal opinion
I like Haloween not that much, because I don`t know it. I don‘t go and ask for
sweets and make masks. In Switzerland we don’t make it like in America. In
Stans the kids don’t come that much to the houses and ask for sweeets.
