| Title | Ideas for Karneval |
| Body | Editor's note: A recent query on the AATG listserv for ideas for celebrating Karneval in the classroom generated the following Web sites and activity suggestions: For general Karneval information: http://www.swr.de/fastnacht/links/index.html http://goethenet.net/karneval/2005/ For Rucki Zucki melody and lyrics: http://www.hn.tue.schule-bw.de/schproj/musik/diewiss.htm http://www.midifiles.de/Index0068.htm http://www.lyrix.at ----- I do a day that tries to capture the spirit of the season. Each student must wear a preferably funny hat (G rated) to get into class on that day. I serve Kreppel, we dance the Rucki Zucki, and play crazy games, just to get the students into the spirit of the festivities. Prior to that day I talk about my own experiences in Mainz and show a power point so they have some visual connection, working with pertinent vocabulary. Every few years I set up my principal to come into the room, where I immediately cut off his tie. (That actually takes place on Weiberfastnacht, the Thursday before) My advanced students go 'in die Bütt' and present their own Büttenrede, after having read some examples the week before. I always have a personalized poem for each group, too, which I present to them. It's a day they don't forget. Reid, P. Re: [AATG-L] Karneval. American Association of Teachers of German listserv.
