HISTORY FOR KIDS FROM BBC

http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/forkids/ 
is a very interesting site where our students can find information on British History and all the major landmarks of Britain. There are also very motivating interactive games and the students can have fun and study history at the same time. For example :
Try to host a medieval feast or Dress the Tudors
Play the game and test your skill in the 'Spying Game'. See if you can crack the code that incriminated Mary, Queen of Scots, and discover the secret message it was meant to convey.
The game takes you into the world of Queen Elizabeth I and her secret service - which was highly successful at cracking secret codes, and was overseen by the most ruthless spymaster of them all, Francis Walsingham.
You can also discover lots of facts on World History, even a story on Mytilene and its involvement in the Peloponnesian War.

ST.PATRICK'S DAY

Irish Blessings and Sayings

May you always have
Walls for the winds,
A roof for the rain,
Tea beside the fire,
Laughter to cheer you,
Those you love near you,
And all your heart might desire!

May your blessings outnumber
The shamrocks that grow,
And may trouble avoid you
Wherever you go.

"May you always have work for your hands to do.
May your pockets always hold a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you,
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you."

"May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields, and,
Until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand."

ACTIVITY : The students can write their OWN blessing!!!!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saint Patrick's Day (Irish: Lá Fhéile Pádraig) is a religious holiday celebrated internationally on 17 March. It is named after Saint Patrick (c. AD 387–461), the most commonly recognised of the patron saints of Ireland. It originated as a Catholic holiday and became an official feast day in the early 17th century. It has gradually become more of a secular celebration of Irish culture.
