Dear friends! Today we are having a Saint Valentine`s Party. We are going to celebrate this wonderful holiday, to learn about its history, to listen to some beautiful songs and poems and to take part in different competitions dedicated to Saint Valentine`s Day. Moreover, we have a unique opportunity to talk about love.  

And now, ladies and gentlemen, make yourselves comfortable and enjoy our party.  

Valentine’s Day is one of the most favorite holidays in the world. The festival falls on February the 14th every year and is celebrated all over the world. The festival commemorates a Christian saint called St Valentine, the festival isn’t a religious one. Nowadays Valentine's Day is a secular festival which is celebrated by people of all ages and races. February the 14th is a festival of love, romance and friendship. People send greeting cards to their sweethearts and friends and ask them “Be my Valentine”. This means “be my friend or love”. People also decorate their homes with big red hearts and give red roses and chocolate to their sweethearts, friends and family members.

The origin of St. Valentine’s Day

What is the origin of St. Valentine’s Day? No one really knows the actual origin of Valentine's Day. There are several legends about St.Valentine’s Day.

Pupil 1: Many historians consider it was held on the 14^th of February to honour Faunus, the god of animal life, hunting, the patron of husbandry. After Christianity spread, some people think this pagan festival eventually became Valentine's Day.

Pupil 2: One of the legends says that Valentine was a Christian priest who lived in the 3.centure A.D. He was put into prison by the Roman emperor for his teaching and was beheaded on the 14^th of February. According to the legend he performed a miracle - he cured his jailer’s daughter of her blindness. Before the execution he wrote her  a letter and signed it “From your Valentine”.

Pupil 3: According to another legend, Valentine was an Italian bishop who lived at about the same time.
Hе was thrown into prison because he secretly married couples, contrary to the laws of the Roman empire (of the Roman Emperor Claudius 11, who believed that single young men made better soldiers.). The legend says that he was burned at the stake. Roman emperor Claudius did not want young men to get married. He wanted all men to go to war instead. He said no one could get married without his permission. But young men and women who were in love wanted to get married. They went to Valentine and he married them in secret. When Claudius found out, he put Valentine into prison. Claudius killed Valentine on February, 14.

Pupil 4: One more legend says that there also was another St. Valentine who was a good friend to children. While he was imprisoned, the children that he had befriended missed him and brought him loving notes. Valentine wrote to children and friends who loved him from the jail. He was executed on February the 14^th . Some people think this is why we exchange friendly and caring messages on this day.

Symbols of St. Valentine’s Day.

Now, St. Valentine’s Day is the day of the sweethearts. On this day, people show their friends, relatives and loved ones that they care. People send valentines, sweets or flowers to those whom they love. What are the symbols of St. Valentine’s Day? Listen to the stories about some of them.

Pupil 1: Perhaps one of the oldest Valentine’s Day customs is sending valentines to their sweethearts, friends and members of their families. Valentines are greeting cards named after St.Valentine’s letters written from jail. Sending valentines became very popular. There are even books explaining how to write valentine messages and verses. Valentines can be sentimental and romantic, or funny and friendly. Valentines can be anonymous, heart-shared or have hearts on them. People buy valentines or make them themselves. But almost all valentines ask “Be my Valentine”. This may mean be my friend or my love.

Teacher: Red is the color most often used in valentines because it is a symbol of warmth and feeling. Pink is a mixture of red and white. White is a symbol of purity and is a colour often used in valentines.

Pupil 2: The red heart is also an old symbol of love. Centuries ago, people thought the heart was the centre of our feelings. Heart symbolizes life and if you give your heart to someone then it means that you love ant trust (доверять) the person.

Teacher: Hearts are the most common romantic symbols. Candy, cookies and even cakes are made in hearts shape for valentine parties.

Pupil 3: One of the early symbols of love is Cupid, the Roman God of Love, who is represented as a young boy with wings and a bow and arrows. He shoots arrows upon people and that makes them fall in love.

Pupil 4: Flowers have been symbols of love and happiness for a long time. Today, people often send flowers as gifts or they use them as decorations on Valentine’s Day. On Valentine’s Day people send roses, forget-me-nots violets and tulips. Red roses are a symbol of love. The rose was the favorite flower of Venus, the Roman goddess of love. Red is a color that stands for strong feelings. That is why the red rose is a flower of love. On Valentine’s Day, one rose or a dozen means “I love you”.

Teacher: Flowers have some specific messages. The language of flowers developed over a period of centuries. 

White roses are for true love

Red roses are for passion

Yellow roses are for friendship

Black roses mean farewell

Pupil 5: Ribbons and Lace have been associated with love and romance since ages. Ribbons go back to the days when ladies gave ribbons to their favorite knights when they went to war. Lace comes from a Latin word, which means “to catch”. Lace was supposed to catch the heart of a loved one. Hundreds of years ago, women carried lace handkerchiefs. It was also usual for a lady to drop her handkerchief in the path of the man whose attention she wanted to draw.  

Ribbons meant “You are tied up”, or “”You are my girl” Lace is the same “You have caught my heart in net”.

Teacher: Today lace, ribbons, and frills (оборки) are still used: we began using paper lace to decorate chocolate boxes and Valentine cards, ribbons to tie flowers.

Pupil 6: Chocolate has long been considered a romantic gift, especially on Valentine's Day. It means that chocolate is as sweet as love. Chocolates and candies are often put in heart shaped boxes. Chocolate in heart shaped boxes are a traditional Valentine's Day gift.

Pupil 7: Rings. In some countries, men and women exchange rings when they become engaged or marry. Valentine’s Day is a popular day for giving an engagement ring. The ring usually had stone or jewel set in it. Diamonds are common in today engagement rings.

Pupil 8: Love Knots : Use of love knots is an Arabic custom and is very expressive. In earlier days the wives used to sent love knots to their husband to express their love. The tradition continues till nowadays. It is a symbol of endless love. People made love knots from ribbon or drew them on paper.

Pupil 9: Love birds and Doves. Lovebirds are colorful parrots found in Africa. Most have red bills.

They are called love birds because they sit closely together in pairs like loving souls do. Doves were favorite birds of Venus. They remain with the same mates all their lives. The males and females both care for their babies. As these birds are symbols of loyalty and love they are also symbols of Valentine’s Day.

Pupil 10: Gloves Long time ago, when a man proposed marriage to a woman, he “asked for her hand”. The hand became a symbol of marriage and love. Soon gloves also became a symbol of love.

How do people in different countries celebrate Valentine’s day

The Story about the first Valentine card

Do you want to know when the first valentine appeared? Listen to the story about the first Valentine card.

The first Valentine card was written by a young Frenchman, Charles, Duke of Orleans - герцог Charles was captured by the English and was put in the Tower of London. He felt very lonely, and to fight his loneliness he started writing love poems to his wife in France. His 'valentines' are now kept in the British Museum.
In 1537, King Henry VIII officially recognized St. Valentine's Day, which is ironic because he wasn't the most romantic of men he had six wives (and two of them were executed)!
The early valen­tines were handmade, and young people spent hours composing their own poems. In 1784, the first book with poems for St. Valentine’s Day was pub­lished.

As time passed, valentine cards became more and more popular. The Victorians decorated their cards with hearts and Cupids, wild flowers, silk, lace, feathers. They were signed “From your secret admirer”

In the nineteenth century, a real Valentine's Day industry was found. Ready-made cards were produced, just as they were for Christmas and birthdays.
Today, many people send electronic valentines to their loved ones. But the person who gets an e-valentine will know who it's from! You can't sign it “From your secret admirer”

Инсценировка легенды.

Teacher: It’s time to put up some short plays. When the Roman Emperor Claudius II needed soldiers for his army, he made a special law against marrying because he was sure that getting married made men want to stay at home instead of fighting wars. But at that time there lived a priest called Valentine. He couldn’t agree with the emperor’s decision. When he saw that young couples were truly in love, he married them secretly

Scene 1

На сцене появляются юноша и девушка, одетые в одежды времен Римской империи.

Он:  Oh, please! Marry us! We love each other truly! We can’t live without each other.

Она: I’ll die, if you don’t marry us. Please, please. Help us! (они оба падают на колени)

Священник: I see how much you love each other. I will help you. My daughter! My son! I declare you husband and wife! Live long and be happy!

Вальс Вивальди (врывается стража, они хватают священника)

Стражник 1: Priest, you have been discovered and condemned to death!

Стражник 2: How dare you break the law? To prison! To prison!

Он и она: Farewell, Father!

Scene 2

Священник в тюрьме. Звучит грустная мелодия. Входит тюремщик с дочерью.

Священник: What a beautiful girl!

Тюремщик: This is my daughter. She is so unhappy. She is blind. She will never enjoy the light of the sun! She will never see the blue sky! She will never see the trees! (рыдает)

Священник: I will help you. Come up to me, poor child! Don’t be afraid!

(через некоторое время дочь тюремщика показывает, что к ней вернулось зрение, она счастлива)

Девушка:  You’ve worked a miracle! Thank you! You are so kind. Even here, in prison, you show your love for everyone.  I’m so grateful to you! May I come to visit you every day?

Священник:  Unfortunately, tomorrow, on February 14, I am to die. But I’m not scared and I want to tell everybody on earth, “I love you. I’m your Valentine”.

Голос из-за кулис: Just before his death, on February 14, Valentine sent the girl a farewell message which he signed ”From your Valentine”.

I Just Called to Say I Love You

No New Year's Day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring
No song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day

No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is, is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

No summer's high
No warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze
No falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies

No Libra sun
No Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is, though old so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

No new years's day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring
No song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day
No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding saturday within the month of June
But what it is
Is something true
Made up of these 3 words
That I must say to you

I just called to say
I love you
I just called to say
How much I care
I just called to say
I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

No summer's high
No warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze
No falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No libra sand
No halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy
You Bring
But what it is
Though old so new
To fill your heart
Like no 3 words Could ever do.

Abstract from “Tom Soyer” by Mark Twain Том и Беки. Они садятся за парту.
Tom: Do you like rats?
No, I hate them.

Tom: Well, I do too – live ones. But I mean dead rats to swing them round your head with a string.
Becky: No, I don’t like them anyway.
Tom: Were you ever at a circus?
Becky: Yes, and father will take me there again, if I am a good girl.
Tom: I have been at the circus many times. I am going to be a clown in a circus when I grow up.
Becky: Oh, that will be very nice.
Tom: I say, Becky, were you ever engaged?
Becky: What is that?
Tom: Why, engaged to be married?
Becky: No.
Tom: Would you like to?
Becky: I don’t know. What is it like?
Tom: Like? Why, it isn’t like anything. You only just tell a boy you won’t ever have anybody but him, ever, ever, ever, and then you kiss, and that’s all. Anybody can do it.
Becky: Kiss? Why must we kiss?
Tom: Well, that – well, they always do that.
Becky: Everybody?
Tom: Yes, everybody who is in love. Do you remember what I wrote?
Becky: Ye – yes.
Tom: What was it?
Becky: I won’t tell you!
Tom: Shall I tell you?
Becky: Ye – yes, but not to-day.
Tom: Oh, I’ll tell it today. (Шепчет ей на ухо. Потом просит повторить ее, и наконец, она тоже шепчет.)
Becky: I – love – you.
(Они вскакивают и бегают вокруг парты. Наконец, Том ловит ее, но Беки закрывает лицо фартуком. Том потихоньку убирает руки с ее лица и целует девочку.)
Tom: Now, it’s all over, Becky. After this you must love only me and walk only with me when we walk home.
Becky: Oh, it’s nice.
Tom: Of course, it’s very nice; when I was engaged to Amy Lawrence…
Becky: Oh, Tom, then I am not the first girl whom you are engaged to? (Девочка плачет)
Tom: Oh, don’t cry, Becky. I don’t love her anymore.
Becky: Yes, you do, Tom, you do.
(Мальчик пытается обнять ее и утешить, но девочка сопротивляется.)
Tom: Becky, I – I love only you. (Никакого ответа, только всхлипывания.)
Tom: (очень мягко) Becky! Becky, won’t you say something?
(Мальчик достает свое главное сокровище, медный шарик, и держит так, чтобы она могла его видеть.)
Tom: Please, Becky, won’t you take it?
(Девочка бьет его по руке, шарик падает. Том в отчаянии убегает. Беки убирает руки от лица, замечает отсутствие Тома и начинает его искать.)
Becky: Tom! Come back, Tom! (Девочка убегает)

You ought to see my Cindy, she lives away down South
She's so sweet the honey bees swarm around her mouth
(Chorus:)
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
I'll marry you some day.
The first I seen my Cindy, she was standing by the door
Her shoes & stockings in her hand, her feet all over the floor
(Chorus)
She took me to her parlor, she cooled me with her fan
She said I was the prettiest thing in the shape of mortal man
(Chorus)
She kissed me and she hugged me, she called me sugar plum
She throwed her arms around me, I thought my time had come
(Chorus)
I wish I had a needle, as fine as I could sew
I'd sew the girls to my coattail & down the road I'd go
(Chorus)
I wish I was an apple, a-hangin' on a tree
And every time my Cindy passed, she'd take a bite of me
(Chorus)
Cindy in the springtime, Cindy in the fall
If I can't have my own Cindy, I'll have no girl at all
(Chorus)

You ought to see my Cindy,
She lives a-way down South,
And she's so sweet the honey bees
All swarm around her mouth.

Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
I'll marry you someday.

The first time that I saw her
She was standin' in the door,
Her shoes and stockings in her hand,
Her feet all over the floor.

Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
I'll marry you someday.

I wish I was an apple
A-hangin' on a tree,
And every time my Cindy passed,
She'd take a bite of me.

Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy
I'll marry you someday.

February the 14th is a festival of love, romance and friendship. People send greeting cards to their sweethearts and friends and ask them “Be my Valentine”. This means “be my friend or love”.

The origin of St. Valentine’s Day

Legend 1

Many historians consider

it was held on the 14 th of February to honour Faunus, the god of animal life, hunting, the patron of husbandry. After Christianity spread, some people think this pagan festival eventually became Valentine's Day.

Ledend 2

One of the legends says that Valentine was a Christian priest who lived in the 3.centure A.D. He was put into prison by the Roman emperor for his teaching and was beheaded on the 14 th of February. According to the legend he performed a miracle - he cured his jailer’s daughter of her blindness. Before the execution he wrote her  a letter and signed it “From your Valentine”

Legend 3

According to another legend, Valentine was an Italian bishop who lived at about the same time . Hе was thrown into prison because he secretly married couples, contrary to the laws of the Roman empire (of the Roman Emperor Claudius 11, who believed that single young men made better soldiers.). The legend says that he was burned at the stake.

Legend 4

One more legend says that there also was another St. Valentine who was a good friend to children. While he was imprisoned, the children that he had befriended missed him and brought him loving notes. Valentine wrote to children and friends who loved him from the jail.

Valentines can be sentimental and romantic, or funny and friendly. Valentines can be anonymous, heart-shared or have hearts on them. People buy valentines or make them themselves. But almost all valentines ask “Be my Valentine”

T he red heart is also an old symbol of love. Centuries ago, people thought the heart was the centre of our feelings. Heart symbolizes life and if you give your heart to someone then it means that you love ant trust (доверять) the person

One of the early symbols of love is Cupid, the Roman God of Love, who is represented as a young boy with wings and a bow and arrows. He shoots arrows upon people and that makes them fall in love

Flowers have been symbols of love and happiness for a long time. Today, people often send flowers as gifts or they use them as decorations on Valentine’s Day. On Valentine’s Day people send roses, forget-me-nots violets and tulips. Red roses are a symbol of love.

Ribbons and Lace have been associated with love and romance since ages. Ribbons go back to the days when ladies gave ribbons to their favorite knights when they went to war. Hundreds of years ago, women carried lace handkerchiefs. It was also usual for a lady to drop her handkerchief in the path of the man whose attention she wanted to draw.  

Ribbons meant “You are tied up”, or “”You are my girl” Lace is the same “You have caught my heart in net”.

Chocolate has long been considered a romantic gift, especially on Valentine's Day. It means that chocolate is as sweet as love. Chocolates and candies are often put in heart shaped boxes. Chocolate in heart shaped boxes are a traditional Valentine's Day gift

Rings. In some countries, men and women exchange rings when they become engaged or marry. Valentine’s Day is a popular day for giving an engagement ring. The ring usually had stone or jewel set in it. Diamonds are common in today engagement rings.

Doves are called love birds because they sit closely together in pairs like loving souls do. Doves were favorite birds of Venus. They remain with the same mates all their lives. The males and females both care for their babies. As these birds are symbols of loyalty and love they are also symbols of Valentine’s Day

Love Knots

Use of love knots is an Arabic custom and is very expressive. In earlier days the wives used to sent love knots to their husband to express their love. The tradition continues till nowadays. It is a symbol of endless love. People made love knots from ribbon or drew them on paper

Gloves Long time ago, when a man proposed marriage to a woman, he “asked for her hand”. The hand became a symbol of marriage and love. Soon gloves also became a symbol of love

St. Valentine’s Day is one of the most favourite celebrations in the world. The festival falls on February the 14th and is celebrated all over the world. The festival commemorates a Christian saint called St Valentine, the festival isn’t a religious one. Nowadays Valentine's Day is a secular festival which is celebrated by people of all ages and races.
