  • Santa Claus from Country to Country
    Santa Claus from Country to Country Lesson topic: Various ways Santa is portrayed in different countries Content Concepts: -Learn about various Santa Claus legends United States, Belgium, Brazil, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, New Zealand, Romania, Russia, Netherlands, Spain, Chile. -Social Studies, history, map skills -Reading (list of library books) -Math problems -Science projects -Craft projects -Writing practice -Gaming skills -Music (list of Christmas CD’s) Proficiency levels: Grades 4 - 6 Information, Materials, Resources: Social Studies, History, and Map skills United States: The modern portrayal of Santa Claus frequently depicts him listening to the Christmas wishes of young children. Santa Claus (also known as Saint Nicholas, Saint Nick, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, Santy or simply Santa) is a folklore figure in various cultures who distributes gifts to children, normally on Christmas Eve . Each name is a variation of Saint Nicholas , but refers to Santa Claus. In today's North American, European and worldwide celebration of Christmas, people young and old simply refer to the hero of the season as Santa , or Santa Claus. (Wikipedia) Conventionally, Santa Claus is portrayed as a kindly, round-bellied, merry, bespectacled white man in a red coat trimmed with white fur, with a long white beard . On Christmas Eve, he rides in his sleigh pulled by flying reindeer from house to house to give presents to children. To enter the house, Santa Claus comes down the chimney and exits through the fireplace . During the rest of the year he lives together with his wife Mrs. Claus and his elves manufacturing toys . Some modern depictions of Santa (often in advertising and popular entertainment) will show the elves and Santa's workshop as more of a processing and distribution facility, ordering and receiving the toys from various toy manufacturers from across the world.

  • Just a Normal Childhood
    THE FORMATIVE YEARS Just a normal childhood In post-war Germany Neuss celebrated 2000 years in 1984 Post war Germany Family Vom Samstag, 6. Januar bis zum Dienstag, 9. Januar 2018 ziehen die Ministranten und Kinder als Heilige Drei Könige von Haus zu Haus. Wir bringen den Menschen den Segen nach Hause. Kaspar Melchior Balthasar . Sternsingen Fastnacht und Fasching • 1. Alemannische Fastnacht Unsere Vorfahren, die alten Germanen, feierten im Frühling ein wildes Fest um die bösen Wintergeister zu vertreiben und somit die kalte Jahreszeit zu beenden. Sie setzten sich gruselige Masken auf und machten mit ihren Trommeln und Rasseln einen ohrenbetäubenden Lärm. Aus den Masken sind heute Kostüme aller Art geworden – meistens sind diese bunt und lustig. • 2. Fastenzeit im zwölften Jahrhundert Ein zweiter Ursprung geht bis ins zwölfte Jahrhundert zurück. Um den Glauben der Menschen zu stärken, hat der Papst eine jährliche Fastenzeit zwischen Aschermittwoch und Karsamstag verordnet. Die Menschen sollten mehr beten und dafür weniger essen. Besonders Fleisch war streng verboten. Dies erklärt auch die Bezeichnung Karneval. Der Begriff kommt aus dem Lateinischen und „Carne vale“ bedeutet in etwa „Fleisch, lebe wohl“. Vor der strengen Fastenzeit haben es sich die Menschen dann noch einmal richtig gut gehen lassen und ausgiebig gegessen und gefeiert. • 3. Das Saturnalienfest Im alten Rom wurde früher das „Saturnalienfest“ gefeiert, welches als weiterer Ursprung für unser heutiges Karnevalsfest steht. Für einen Tag waren die Herren und ihre Sklaven „gleichgestellt“. Es kam sogar vor, dass die vornehmen Herren ihre Sklaven bedient haben. Heute spiegelt sich diese Tradition in den „Büttenreden“ wieder. Das Volk erhebt das Wort und hält lustige Reden.

  • Perchtenlauf” in Its Relationship to the Carnivalesque
    Ritual Rebellion and Social Inversion in Alpine Austria: Rethinking the “Perchtenlauf” in its Relationship to the Carnivalesque by David Natko A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts Approved April 2014 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: John Alexander, Chair Daniel Gilfillan Peter Horwath ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2014 ABSTRACT The "Perchtenlauf," a multi-faceted procession of masked participants found in the eastern Alps, has been the subject of considerable discourse and often debate within European ethnology since the mid-19th century. While often viewed from a mythological perspective and characterized as a relic of pre-Christian cult practices, only recently have scholars begun to examine its connection with Carnival. Research of this kind calls for an in-depth analysis of the "Perchtenlauf" that is informed by Bakhtin's theory of the carnivalesque, an aesthetic of festive merriment and the release from social restrictions which is embodied by Carnival traditions. A carnivalesque reading of the "Perchtenlauf" reveals a tradition pregnant with playful ambivalence, celebrations of the lower body, and the inversion of social hierarchies. Past interpretations of the "Perchtenlauf" have often described its alleged supernatural function of driving away the harmful forces of winter, however its carnavalesque elements have definite social functions involving the enjoyment of certain liberties not sanctioned under other circumstances. The current study solidifies the relationship between the "Perchtenlauf" and Carnival using ethnographic, historical, and etymological evidence in an attempt to reframe the discourse on the tradition's form and function in terms of carnivalesque performance. i TABLE OF CONTENTS Page CHAPTER 1 PRELIMINARY REMARKS AND REVIEW OF LITERATURE ....................

  • DESNA, UKRAINE 1St Quarter 2012 Report
    DESNA, UKRAINE 1st Quarter 2012 Report January 2012 To start the New Year, our church held a celebration of the birth of Christ. [Christmas in Ukraine is traditionally celebrated according to the old calendar, on January 6.] We rejoiced in this gift from God. We ourselves could also give gifts for the children of the church and those who come to Sunday school. For many of them, what they receive from us is almost the only Christmas gift they receive, because they are from poor families. Also, God has allowed us to hold a meeting with all teachers of the Desna school and to give them special gifts on Christmas: a Bible, children's Bibles, and posters. I had a conversation with the director and assistant principal of the school. But the Devil does not sleep, and 2 days after that meeting, the school’s head teacher called and asked the missionary, Igor, not to come anymore and not to conduct classes on Christian ethics, which he had organized every week for high school students. But the Devil cannot resist God's intervention in the lives of people by His almighty hand, so we pray for God's influence on this situation. At our church this month we experienced a replenishing. Came a family, an ethnic Gypsy. The man of the family repented while in prison: he has 3 children and his wife had not yet accepted the Lord. They live in a town called Oster, where there is no Baptist church, and for a long time he’d been looking for where to go for church services.

  • Was Ist Weihnachten? Weihnachtslieder Auf Youtube Vorspielen
    Tipp für Lehrer: Alle neuen Vokabel erklären, erzählen, wie die eigene Familie feiert, Fragen beantworten und evt. Was ist Weihnachten? Weihnachtslieder auf Youtube vorspielen. Advent Ende November und im Dezember, wenn es dunkel und kalt ist, dann beginnt die Weihnachtszeit. Die Straßen werden schön beleuchtet und die Geschäfte werden dekoriert. Die Menschen schmücken die Fenster ihrer Häuser und Wohnungen. Sie backen Kekse, zünden Kerzen an und treffen sich gerne mit Freunden auf Weihnachtsmärkten. Dort werden warmer Punsch und Glühwein verkauft und auch kleine Dekorations-Gegenstände, wie Kerzen oder bunte Kugeln für den Weihnachtsbaum. Es ist die Zeit vor dem Weihnachtsfest. Sie wird „Vorweihnachtszeit“ oder „Advent“ genannt. Kinder freuen sich über Adventkalender, um die Tage bis zum Weihnachtsfest zu zählen. Diese sind oft mit Süßigkeiten gefüllt. Weihnachten Im Christentum gehört Weihnachten zu den wichtigsten Feiertagen im Jahr. Es wird die Geburt von Jesus gefeiert. Da das genaue Geburtsdatum von Jesus nicht bekannt war, wurde der 25. Dezember bestimmt. Ursprünglich war es aber das Fest der Wintersonnenwende. Es wurde von vielen Kulturen gefeiert, um die finsterste Zeit des Jahres zu erhellen. In Österreich wird das Weihnachtsfest am Abend des 24. Dezember gefeiert. Für die meisten Menschen ist Weihnachten das Fest der Liebe. Wie wird Weihnachten gefeiert? Zu Weihnachten schmücken viele Menschen daheim einen Weihnachtsbaum und kaufen Geschenke. Am Abend kommt die ganze Familie bei dem Baum zusammen und die Geschenke werden ausgepackt. Danach gibt es ein besonderes Festessen mit der ganzen Familie oder auch mit Freunden. Traditionell werden auch Weihnachtslieder gesungen. By Stephanie Schmid, CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. „Stille Nacht“ ist eines der berühmtesten Lieder.

  • Weihnachten in Romanischen Ländern Ein Vergleich Zwischen Frankreich, Italien Und Spanien
    Christine Michler, Brigitte Schobel Weihnachten in romanischen Ländern Ein Vergleich zwischen Frankreich, Italien und Spanien 1. Vorbemerkung Es gehört fast schon zum festen Repertoire eines Fremdsprachenlehrers, spätestens in der Woche vor den Weihnachtsferien mit den Schülern über weihnachtliche Traditionen und Gebräuche im Zielland zu sprechen, auf Weihnachten bezogene Sprachspiele zu machen und Weihnachtslieder vorzuspielen. Zahlreiche Materialien unterstützen den Lehrer bei der Vorbereitung solcher Unterrichtsstunden. Der folgende Beitrag will eine weitere Anregung zur Gestaltung von Stunden zum Thema „Weihnachten“ geben, allerdings nicht nur auf ein Zielland bezogen. Vielmehr wird vergleichend vorgegangen, so dass die Schüler einen Überblick über weihnachtliche Rituale und Sitten in Frankreich, Italien und Spanien erhalten. So kann landeskundliches Wissen und interkulturelle Kompetenz gefördert und in Bezug auf lexikalische Kenntnisse das Ziel der rezeptiven Mehrsprachigkeit unterstützt werden. 2.
