Ход мероприятия:

Ведущий: Dear friend, we’d like to present you British holidays! What are some of them? How British people celebrate them and so on! Let’s start our presentation…

Penokio: Wait, wait, wait! What is going on here? Are you going to celebrate without me, Penokio? Do you know I’m very curious?

Ведущий: Ok Penokio! Let’s start together. The first holiday is St. Valentines Day. It is celebrated on the 14^th of February. It is the day when boys and girls, sweethearts and lovers, husbands and wives, friends and neighbours exchange greetings of affection.

Сценка 1

Ученик 1 (мальчик): I’ll be your sweetheart, if you will be mine, All of my life I’ll be your Valentine…

Ученик 2 (девочка): A friend like you is a dream come true (целует в щеку и дарит Валентину, мальчик дарит Валентину в ответ)

Ведущий: The next holiday is very important, because on the 26^th of March all children make presents to their mothers and help them about the house.

Сценка 2

Ученик 1 (мальчик): Dear mother, this present is especially for you. (вручает подарок)

Ученик 2 (девочка): Thank you very much, my dear son

Penokio: Oh, it’s a boring holiday. I don’t like helping my parents. I am fond of playing tricks with them.

Ведущий: Oh, then the next 2 holidays are especially for you. On April Fool’s Day, for example, people cheat each other just for fun.

Сценка 3

Ученик 1: Look! What is it? (показывает пальцем на грудь Ученика 2)

Ученик 1 щипает за нос ученика 2 и громко смеется

Ученик 1: Ha, ha ha!

Penokio: Oh, I know the holiday Halloween and children play tricks with people.

Сценка 3

Ученики: хором рассказывают стихотворение «Trick or treat»

Trick or treat, trick or treat,
Give us something good to eat.
Give us candy, give us cake,
Give us something sweet to take.
Give us cookies, fruit and gum,
Hurry up and give us some.
You had better do it quick
Or we’ll surely play a trick.
Trick or treat, trick or treat,
Give us something good to eat

Penokio: Dear friend, and do you know any ancient holidays?

Ведущий: Of course! You know, that British people believe in God and each second Monday in October they celebrate Thanksgiving Day, they want to say thank you to God for all food.

  Сценка 4

Ученик 1 и 2 : (хором рассказывают стих):

T for time to be together, turkey, talk, and tangy weather.
H for harvest stored away, home, and hearth, and holiday.
A for autumn's frosty art, and abundance in the heart.
N for neighbours, and October, nice things, new things to remember.
K for kitchen, kettles' croon, kith and kin expected soon.
S for sizzles, sights, and sounds, and something special that abounds.

Penokio: Well, I will also say thank you God for everything, even for my pretty nose! (показывает на нос).

Ведущий: Penokio, I’d like to tell you about Easter, It’s a very interesting tradition in Britain, unlike Ukraine people play games during this holiday, for example, "Egg rolling", look at our guys!

Сценка 5

Have you looked in the cupboard?
Have you looked in the drawer?
Have you looked in the window?
Let's hunt some more.
Peek in the closet, peek under the bed.
Peek in your slipper,
You know what he said.
"I 've colored my eggs
With paints & brush
And ‘II hide them on Easter
In your house. Hush! Hush!"

Ведущий: Penokio, I see you like fun and what is your favorite holiday?

Penokio: My favourite holiday is Christmas because Britain is very beautiful at these days. People decorate Christmas tree, present special presents to each other and Christmas cards, cook turkey and the whole country is full of fun, love and happiness.

Ведущий: Very soon we are going to celebrate Christmas! Let’s sing a traditional song “Jingle bells”

“Jingle bells”

Chorus:

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.

Oh! What fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!

             Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.

Oh! What fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!
