Pupils from Hiltenfinger Primary School prepare typical German/ Bavarian meals

Together with their teacher Mrs. Seehuber the 4th-grade students cooked two typical Bavarian meals at school.
Group one prepared a dessert called „Bayerische Crème”.
This very sweet dessert takes a while to get its right consistence before it can be eaten.



Group two prepared a „Schwäbische Flädlesuppe“. Pancakes must be baked, then cut into stripes und put into a soup of vegetables.

Another group was responsible for decorating the tables: they folded serviettes, created menus on their new PC`s and laid the tables in fine manner. 




After work, all the children gathered at the beautifully decorated tables, to have a delicious meal together.


Work on the typical houses of Brittany

Rennes, the capital of Brittany, shows us the oldest Breton examples of half-timbered houses. During our lessons in Arts the third class reconstructed the half-timbered houses, which you can see in the city of Rennes. 

 

We had to use fine strips of thick paper to reproduce the various structures and decorations of these houses. We can see wooden beams and decorations as cross of St. Andrew (only under windows).


Then we colored the houses in the typical colors.
When we finished our houses, we put them side by side and recreated Middle-Ages Breton street.
