The autumn with its colors and its characteristics is generally associated with melancholy. It is a testament the song "Ballata di Autunno" by Joan Manuel Serrat and sung in Italy from Mina
To celebrate the autumn first, we have chosen a poem : « Monsieur Automne ». The author, Carl Norac is belgian but he lives in France, near our school.
Monsieur Automne, J’ai rencontré Monsieur Automne Il portait un costume d’homme Dont les feuilles tombaient, tombaient Quand il riait, quand il riait. Je connais bien Monsieur Automne Son parfum de vent et de pomme Une main froide, l’autre chauffée Au dernier souvenir d’été. Monsieur Automne n’est pas triste Hier je l’ai vu en artiste Repeindre les bois en couleur, Du brun d’écorce au rouge coeur.
Carl NORAC
He talk about place of autumn between summer and winter.
Then, we have collected autumn's material. We have represented autumn with leaf and wood. We have painted the sheet in grey like the rain. At the end, we have planted acorn. Now, we are waiting for our oak trees !!
