In Portugal, All Saints' Day on November 1st is marked by a tradition where children go door-to-door asking for "Bread of God" or "Pão-por-Deus" and receive treats like cookies, nuts, fruit, and sometimes money in their bags. This custom originated in 1756 in Lisbon after a devastating earthquake and aimed to provide relief for the poor, but now it is celebrated more playfully by children who sing songs while collecting treats, though the tradition persists mainly in small towns.

Prezentacja
The document summarizes key aspects of the Dalton education approach used in Kindergarten No. 240. It discusses Helen Parkhurst's 1922 book on the Dalton Plan and some of its core principles, including that the teacher's role is to guide students to find answers themselves rather than directly teaching them. It also outlines several tools and methods used in the kindergarten, such as task boards, duty weeks, and students working independently or in pairs/groups on their own schedules. Photographs depict the educational space and methods used to help students stay organized and independent.
