It's Pancake Day!
Par Nelly Sallibartan (Collège Germaine Tillion (91)) le 16 février 2010, 20:21 - news
Kids across Europe, North America and Australia will be getting out the eggs and flour and frying up some pancakes.
It's Pancake Day! Also known as Shrove Tuesday it is the day you pig out before fasting until Easter.
But in Russia - it's not just limited to one day - they get a whole week of munching on pancakes - or blinis as they're known there.
They symbolise the sun
as they're round, warm and golden... and because of that they help ward
off cold winter weather.
The snack is served topped with fish, mushrooms, jam, sour cream or butter.
They're a big part of the Maslenitsa Festival, which celebrates the end of winter and the arrival of spring.
Send me your recipe and tell me how many you've eaten this year.
How do you like them?
Do you toss them?
Happy eating!10 février 2010

What unusual animal would you like?
Par Nelly Sallibartan (Collège Germaine Tillion (91)) le 03 février 2010, 08:26 - documents 6th form
A family in Kent have got some unusual animals hopping around their garden... wallabies.
They're not tame pets, but they do belong to the family and that got us thinking - what unusual animal would you like to have at home?
Miley Cyrus has said she'd like a kangaroo and Zac Efron wants a Liger - a cross between a lion and a tiger - but what about you?
Would you go for something exotic and scaly, big and furry, or small and cute?
Maybe you'd create you're own animal, a bit like a liger but mixing two other animals instead?

To give people electricity indigenous tribes and parts of the forest wil be destroyed.
Par Nelly Sallibartan (Collège Germaine Tillion (91)) le 02 février 2010, 22:33 - news
In the Amazon rainforest the Brazilian government have decided to allow a massive hydroelectric dam to be built.
The Belo Monte dam would be the third largest in the world. The idea is that it will store enough water to provide electricity to twenty three million homes.
But lots of people think that building the dam is a really bad idea. They reckon that large parts of the rainforest will be destroyed in the process. Not only would that be bad for the environment - they think it would also be devastating for the indigenous tribes that live in the area.
