18th December 2013, will be... Bake Cookies Day!
Bake Cookies Day occurs in the middle of the holiday season, and is a great excuse to bake some delicious cookies to help you get through the cold, winter days!
Why not try some Cinnamon flavoured cookies to get your kitchen smelling of Winter Festivities?
Cookies arrived in America in the 17th Centuary, although the word arrived much later with the Dutch, in its original form of koekje which means little cake.
This was soon shortened to “Cooky”
or “Cookie”.
Why don't you try to bake these cute ones this season?
OR THESE ONES IF YOU'RE NOT IN "THE CHRISTMAS MOOD"...
A bit of humour:
Feeling hungry? Bake your own cookies now:

A CHRISTMAS STORY AND A FUNNY POEM JUST FOR YOU..
CLICK BELOW AND LISTEN TO A BEAUTIFUL STORY FULL OF CHRISTMAS SPIRIT...
A CHRISTMAS CAROL
Dear Santa, Here's My Christmas List
A Funny Christmas Poem for Kids
From the book Santa Got Stuck in the Chimney
 
Dear Santa, here's my Christmas list.
--Kenn NesbittI hope you'll bring it all. I've only asked for gifts my parents can't find at the mall. I'd like to have a UFO, with aliens inside, and maybe a Tyrannosaurus Rex that I could ride. A ninety-nine foot robot is a present I could use. I'll also need a time machine, and rocket-powered shoes. Please bring a gentle genie who will grant my every wish, and don't forget a wizard's wand, and, yes, a talking fish. Of course, I'll need a unicorn, and won't you please provide a dragon, and a castle in the English countryside. Of course, the weight of all these things might cause your sleigh to crash. If that's the case, dear Santa, please feel free to just bring cash.  |

HUMAN RIGHTS DAY - 10th December
The United Nations’ (UN) Human Rights Day, on December 10,
marks the anniversary of the presentation of the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights.
What do people do?
Events focused on the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights are held worldwide on and around December 10.
Many events aim to educate
people, especially children and teenagers, on their human rights and the
importance of upholding these in their own communities and further afield.
The day may also include protests to
alert people of circumstances in parts of the world where the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights is not recognised or respected, or where these
rights are not considered to be important.
Cultural events are also organised
to celebrate the importance of human rights through music, dance, drama or fine
art.
Idea
This is an opportunity to engage
students in their learning in a very real way through the use of English. We
set the students the task, and expect great things of them.
If you think it’s not possible, watch
this video of how a 4th grade teacher uses his World Peace Game to develop
learning and completely engage his students: www.tinyurl.com/peacegame.
See how John Hunter uses 4 “i”s to interact, interest, involve and inspire kids.
