Good morning, dear children and guests! Glad to see you! Today we are going to have a contest. We'll speak about Christmas — a beautiful holiday which is loved by children and adults. All the tasks will be connected with Christmas. I hope you'll enjoy our English lesson. Please, be active, sociable and friendly to each other. Let’s start!

Part I.

Teacher:

Look at the picture and guess the theme of the holiday we’ll speak about.

(На картинке изображение рождественской ёлки)

You can see the fir-tree and there is a nice red star on it. Well, this is a traditional “Christmas tree”. There are a lot of symbols and things which are connected with this holiday. What are they? What events and symbols are associated with the Christmas celebration?

And who tells me what kind of holiday Christmas is?

P1:    Christmas is a favourite and happy holiday for English children.

P2:    Christmas is a religious holiday. On this holiday we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, who was very kind and loved children very much.

exchange gifts.

“Today ... Christmas day and my family and I ... at home. It ... Christmas Eve yesterday and we ... in town shopping for presents. It ... not cold yesterday but it ... snowing outside. We ... not cold because there ... a big fir-tree in the living-room and we ... all nice and warm. I like Christmas and I ... very happy today!”

Teacher:

Time for fun. It’s time to play a little.

A game “Pin the tail on the donkey”. Here is a donkey but it has no tail. Everybody has a chance to pin the tail on the donkey. It’s not so easy, because you cannot see — you have a scarf over your eyes. The person who puts the tail nearest to the right place is winner.

And now let’s sing a song about Christmas.

(“We wish you a Merry Christmas”...

“Jingle bells”)

So, it’s time to finish our lesson. Thank you for taking part in the holiday celebration.

1 hope you’ve learned much about Christmas traditions.

I wish you good luck and a Merry Christmas!
