Рождество в Великобритании

Рождество в Англии. Учитель: Мочалкина Е.В. МОУ «СОШ»№1 201 8

This is the season When mornings are dark And birds do not sing In the woods, in the parks This is the season When children ski And Father Frost brings The New Year Tree.

Christmas gifts

Gifts wrapped up in the Christmas paper

Sitting round the tree so bright

Children fast asleep in bed

As Santa comes tonight.

Christmas windows Tinsel round the windows bright Pink, orange, red and white! Glittering in the evening light Oh, such a lovely sight!

Christmas is a lovely time The snow lies white and thick Mistletoe is hard to find And holly hard to pick!

Father Christmas (Santa Claus)

At night Santa Claus comes with his sack of presents from the North Pole on his flying sleigh, pulled by his 8 reindeer.

On the eve of the Christmas children hang their stockings so that Santa Claus could put presents into them. But if the child didn`t behave properly Santa Claus can put there a piece of coal as punishment .

British children put mince pies and milk for Father Christmas and carrots for his reindeer.

Christmas Tree

Every year the

people of

Norway give a

present. It`s a

big Christmas

tree and it

stands in

Trafalgar

Square.

The Christmas trees are always decorated with candles, many bells, baubles, tinsel and small toys.

The British decorate the top of the tree with a star or an angel .

The giving of presents is the most important Christmas tradition. Family members wrap up their gifts and put them around the tree to be found on Christmas morning.

At Christmas everyone decorates their houses with holly and mistletoe.

Holly is a green plant with red berries.

Mistletoe is a green

plant with white berries.

People often hang holly or mistletoe wreaths on the front doors.

It`s a Christmas tradition for British people to kiss their friends and family under the mistletoe.

Carols

Before Christmas,

groups of children

go from house to

house. They

collect money for

charity and sing

carols , traditional

Christmas songs .
