Dad´s day

He encontrado lo siguiente sobre el día del padre, supongo que será cierto.

Tal vez muchas personas pueden pensar que la celebración

 del día del padre surgió sólo para comercializar alguna fecha 

o bien para vender algunos productos, pero no, ya que la 

idea surgió con otra intención.

La idea de dicha celebración surgió gracias a la señora 

Sonora Smart Dodd, oriunda de Washington, Estados

 Unidos, quien quería de alguna manera reconocer a su 

padre que se hizo cargo de todos sus hijos al morir su 

esposa.

Fue en el año de 1909 cuando la señora Dodd hizo esta 

propuesta sin obtener buenas noticias y fue hasta el 19 de 

junio de 1910 en Spokane, Washington fue cuando se 

celebró por primera vez el día del padre.

En el año de 1924 el presidente Calvin Coolidge oficializó e

l Día del Padre como una celebración nacional, pero no fue

 sino hasta el año de 1966 cuando el presidente Lyndon 

Johnson firmó una proclamación presidencial, donde se

 declaraba el tercer domingo de junio como el Día del Padre.

En México se celebra el Día del Padre cada tercer domingo 

del mes de junio, dónde festejamos a los tíos, abuelos y 

padres en general.

En España el día del Padre lo festejamos el día de San 

José, 19 de marzo, por aquello de que San José   según los

Cristianos se desposó con María, madre de Jesús y cuido 

de su hijo Jesús,  como un auténtico padre, a pesar de no 

ser hijo de él.

 De cualquier manera, felicidades papis, soís 

ùnicos. Lo mismo nos hacéis volar, 

hacièndonos  gritar de entusiasmo que frenáis

nuestra locura adolescente con un solo gesto.

Os puedo asegurar que el aroma  que tenéis

 cuando os habéis afeitado nunca lo vamos a 

olvidar. como nunca olvidaremos esos abrazos

de oso que cubren protectores nuestros

 cuerpos.

A todos los papis del mundo

 felicidades por ser como soís.

Some poems:

God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,

The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,

The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,

Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it ... Dad 

 

Daddy, I love you
For all that you do.

I'll kiss you and hug you
'Cause you love me, too.

You feed me and need me
To teach you to play.

So smile 'cause I love you
On this Father's Day.

  

 

Thank you for the laughter,
For the good times that we share,
Thanks for always listening,
For trying to be fair.

Thank you for your comfort,
When things are going bad,
Thank you for the shoulder,
To cry on when I'm sad.

This poem is a reminder that
All my life through,
I'll be thanking Heaven
For a Special Dad like you.

 

 He encontrado estos poemas en la web.  

¿Qué tal, si creamos nuestros propias poemas,  para regalar a nuestros papis,  en un día tan especial?

Come children, you can!

Thank you! For St, Patrick´s story

Hello children! How are you,  today?

   St. Patrick está ya casi al alcance de nuestras manos. Sólo deciros que cuando abrís el blog os encontráis una pesentación de la historia de St. Patrick. El texto nos ha llegado al blog de la mano de un desconocid@. Los alumnos de 5º deducimos después de leerlo que debía ser irlandés o irlandesa.   La ilustraciones han sido realizadas por los alumn@s de la sección bilingüe de inglés del Cole.

 Estamos  colgando la historia y los dibujos originales a lo largo del pasillo que une los dos edificios. También hemos elaborado un libro que el 17 de marzo, bueno el 16, que es viernes, entregaremos a la biblioteca del centro.



  Nos hubiera gustado agradecerle personalmente a la persona, que ha contribuido a que hagamos todas estas actividades. No sabemos si  seguirá nuestro blog,  pero, por si así es, ahí queda eso.

Our projects about Ireland. St Patrick..

 St. Patrick is near.
          Chic@s, pronto celebraremos St. Patrick (mira el calendario y sabrás cuántos días faltan), estos son algunos de los trabajos que estamos realizando en la sección bilingüe del cole.

 

                       

The story of St. Patrick

      Hoy nos hemos encontrado la siguiente historia en el correo del blog. 
       Hemos estado leyéndola un poquito para saber de qué iba. 
     Nos hemos sorprendido gratamente con el relato, pues la verdad, no conocíamos muy bien la historia de St. Patrick.
       Queremos  agradecerle a la persona que nos la ha mandado, aunque no sepamos de quién se trata.




    Los niños son curiosos, como su maestra, y les gustaría conocer más cosas, por ello yo iré publicando aquí los comentarios de los niños a esta entrada.

What your name? How old are you? You are boy or girl? en The story of St. Patrick

 by Adán   

I ask me if we can use this story to make a small book about St. Patrick.

by Teresa.

 

 The story of St. Patrick

      

     Many, years ago in the days of old, even older than Teresa, in a land far, far away from Spain the story begins which tells of the boy who becomes St .Patrick.

   
 He was not born in Ireland, which many people believe, including many Irish people. No, he was born in a country across the sea from Ireland called Wales. Wales is not far from Ireland which turned out to be rather unfortunate for young Maewyn Succat. Who is that? I hear you ask.  You see that was his name before he became Patrick, I am glad he changed it as St Maewyn Succat’s day is much harder to pronounce.  I am sure that young Maewyn had a normal childhood; perhaps he played football with his friends who also had silly names. Perhaps he used the Internet. Could he have had a Facebook page? Or, how about a mobile phone to text his friends? I wonder which TV programmes he preferred?  Well you see, electricity had not been invented in Maewyn’s time so he would not have had any of the things that young people today could not imagine living  without.  What kind of games do you think young Maewyn and his friends played so long ago? Anyway, back to the story. When Maewyn was sixteen years old a group of mad Irishmen raided his little Welsh village and captured him. Without even asking for permission, they bundled him on a boat back to Ireland to sell as a slave. He always wanted to go on a boat journey but not like this.  No more normal childhood for young Maewyn. He was sold to a Druid chief who had a large herd of pigs. Guess what his new job was to be? Yes, you guessed correctly; a pig farmer. Now life as a pig farmer was no picnic for the young man from wales. It was a very difficult and smelly job to do, perhaps at that time his name was changed to Smelly, we just don’t know. He ate, slept with and generally lived among the pigs and each night he would tell them the story of “The three little pigs”, how they loved that story.

   It was during his time in Ireland that Smelly, sorry, Maewyn became a Christian. One night he heard a voice in his dreams telling him to get an airplane back to his own country, but as airplanes were not yet invented he had to go by ship. He fled the coast of Ireland and found his way back home. After having the world’s longest shower he joined a monastery where he stayed for the next twelve years. It became his goal in life to convert the pagans of Ireland to Christianity. Perhaps he thought that this would put a stop to their pastime of kidnapping and selling young boys into slavery. It was at this time that he took the name Patrick. He became a bishop and went back to Ireland to pursue his destiny.  He was very good at his job as he helped many people to find God and leave their old pagan ways behind. He even went to visit his old slave master to show that he had no bad feelings towards him. Perhaps he also wanted to visit his old roommates the pigs, but alas, they had all been eaten. This upset Patrick because he was looking forward to a nice piece of ham. The story goes that his old master took all his valuables to his house and burned it down with himself still inside. Apparently, he did not want to face his former slave who had become famous.

  
 Many stories have been written about Patrick. He was not yet called St. Patrick, which would come much later.  It is said that he drove all the snakes out of Ireland, not in a car mind you because cars had not been invented yet either. This is not exactly true, at that time there were no snakes in Ireland. As the devil is often referred to as a snake, it is said that it was the devil he banished from Ireland. It is said also that he used the shamrock as a symbol of the Holy Trinity. That is why the shamrock is very famous in Ireland and people around the world associate it with Ireland.  But we do know that he built many churches and schools all over Ireland. He spent almost thirty years in Ireland teaching the pagans of that green land about the wonders of the Catholic religion. The Irish people never forgot about the boy who, in the twelfth century became a saint, taking the name St Patrick.

   

 St Patrick day was originally a religious holiday but these days it is a secular holiday. It is celebrated each year on March 17^th, which is the date on which he died. Ireland is not the only country to celebrate. Over the centuries many Irish people went to distant lands to find fame and fortune. With them they brought their culture and traditions. Today St. Patrick’s day is also enjoyed by both Catholics and non-Catholics. In my own little town, on the south coast of Ireland, we have a beautiful parade through our city streets.  Lots of children dress up as leprechauns and mini St Patricks. It is a day to remember all the good things about being Irish, a time to be proud of our history.
