The resource beautifully explores Norwegian cultural traditions with Viking roots, including the colorful Constitution Day celebrations on May 17th and the important concept of “friluftsliv” - the Norwegian philosophy of open-air living that reflects their deep connection to nature.
The learning experience expands to cover Norway’s extraordinary natural phenomena, from the magical northern lights that illuminate winter skies to the midnight sun that shines throughout summer nights in northern regions. Students will discover how the Gulf Stream influences Norway’s coastal climate and learn about the country’s renowned seafood cuisine, particularly its world-famous salmon and cod industries.
