My thesis has a didactic character. It consists of two parts - theoretical and practical. The theoretical part deals with Sedlčany region, the landscape of Central Vltava valley, its natural beauty and historical and cultural sights. This section also focuses on presentation of the folk traditions in the course of the year. The year in my thesis is divided into autumn, winter and spring seasons. In autumn, my work deals with St. Martin festival, which was almost forgotten but recently the topic of this festival has been returning to elementary school education. Christmas is the most popular in winter and in spring my work is focused mainly on Easter. The practical part consists of a project day and two sets of lesson plans concerning St. Martin festival and Christmas. The one-day project day combines interrelationships among subjects and cross-curricular topics. The practical part also includes worksheets that were used during the project day at our elementary school. Civic studies teachers can use the worksheets when preparing their lessons.
