Bats, Pumpkins and Skeletons visited our school…

And told us a scary story

Children drew a picture and all together made the word HALLOWEEN

HISTORY OF JACK O’ LANTERNI’m not a

Pumpkin.I’m a Jack O’Lantern

I’m a Turnip

An old Irish legend says that there was a man named Stingy Jack who was too bad to go to heaven and had played many tricks on

the devil to go to hell.Whe he died, he had to walk on earth, carrying

a lantern made out of a turnip with burning coal inside.

Jack became known as “Jack of the lantern “ or Jack o’ Lantern.

In America, years ago immigrants started to use pumpkins instead of turnips to make

the “Jack o’ Lanterns”

Según una leyenda irlandesa había una vez un hombre llamado “Jack el mezquino”, que era demasiado malvado para poder ir al cielo y ,para evitar ir al infierno, engañó varias veces al demonio.Cuando murió quedó caminado por la tierra llevando un farol hecho con un nabo hueco y en su interior un carbón encendido.A partir de entonces se le conoció como Jack el del farol (Jack O’Lantern). En América, hace años los emigrantes empezaron a usar calabazas para hacer los faroles e ir de casa en casa asustando a los vecinos en la noche de todos los Santos (Halloween).

This is NOT a pumpkin.

It’s round,

It’s big,

it has a stem,

but this is

NOT a pumpkin!

You can turn it sideways,

You can even turn it upside down.

You can put it in a corner,

Or throw it high in the air,

and wonder if it’ll come back down.

?

But no matter

HOW you look at it,

this is NOT a pumpkin!

Because

EVERYONE

knows that pumkins…

Why?

don’t

SMILE !

NO! NO! NO!

Pumkins don’t smile

Jack-o’-lanterns do.

…or frown.

THIS is a jack-o’-lantern!

This NOT a pumpkin.
