В1 - Each team is given one question in turn. If the team fails to answer it other one can try to do it. A right answer gives one point. (Ведущий 2 читает вопросы, а команды отвечают по очереди. Вместе с вопросами даны приблизительные ответы).

When is Christmas celebrated? It is celebrated on the 25^th of December.

How do people decorate their houses? Most people decorate their houses with brightly- coloured paper or holly and they usually have a Christmas tree.

Where do people put the presents? Family members wrap up their gifts and leave them at the bottom of the Christmas tree to be found on Christmas morning. Children leave a long stocking at the end of their beds on Christmas Eve hoping that Father Christmas will bring them small presents, fruit and nuts.

Do you know any traditions connected with the New Year? There is a funny tradition connected with the New Year: the First Foot. This is the first visitor to enter a house on New Year’s morning. He is a person of great importance. The First Foot must be a man because it is believed that a woman brings bad luck. He must carry food, drink and coal into the house.

В2 - Let us enjoy ourselves. Listen to some poems about winter and winter holidays. (Стихотворения рассказывают ученики 6 классов).

Christmas Message. (H.W. Longfellow)
I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

New Year.
New things to learn,
New friends to meet,
New songs to sing,
New joys to greet.
New things to see,
New things to hear,
New things to do,
In this glad New Year.

Snow.
The snowflakes are falling
By one’s and by two’s,
There is snow on my coat
And snow on my shoes.
There is snow on the plants
And snow on the trees,
And snowflakes all round me
Like many white bees.

We've Holidays and happy days,
and memory days galore
And when we've toasted every one,
I offer just one more
So let us lift our glasses high,
and drink a silent toast
To the day, deep buried in each heart
that each one loves the most

В1 - Writing the New Year Resolutions is another tradition. Many people make such resolutions: they promise themselves to improve their business and health. Schoolchildren decide to do their best to study and obey their parents and teachers.

В2 - Parents plan to work harder too. They also plan to save money, to give up smoking or drinking, to drive more carefully and so on. Let us make some of them. Each member of every team should write a resolution and fold the sheet of paper.

В1 - The team that will write more resolutions in 5 minutes and won’t repeat them will be the winner.

В2 - OK. We hope you will improve your life next year. And now it’s time to play and check your reaction. The game is called “True and false”.

В1 - There are two chairs: one is “true” and the other is “false”. You will hear some statements and if it is true you will have to sit down on the “true” chair. If the statement is wrong you will have to run to the “false” chair. We need two players from different teams for one statement. More right answers give more points. (Ведущий1 читает утверждения, а участники пытаются быстро сесть на нужный стул.)

Statements:

Scene 1.

Teacher: You know, children, I think that it is always better to give than to take.

Nick: My father always does so.

Teacher: Very nice, Nick! Your father must be a very good man.
Nick: Well, he’s a boxer

TEACHER : Nick, your ideas are like diamonds.
Nick: You mean they're so valuable?
TEACHER: No, I mean they're so rare.

 TEACHER: Where is your pencil, Fred?
PUPIL: I ain't got none.
TEACHER: How many times have I told you not to say that, Fred? Now listen: I do not have a pencil. You do not have a pencil. They do not have a pencil. Now, do you understand?
PUPIL: Not really. What happened to all the pencils?

TEACHER: Herman, name two pronouns.
PUPIL: Who, me?
TEACHER: Correct!

TEACHER: Fred, the story you handed in called "Our Dog," is exactly like your brother's.
FRED: Of course. It's the same dog.

Scene 2

Junior: Dad, do you think you can write in the dark?

Dad: Of course, I can, Son.

Junior: Then turn off the light and sign my report card.

Son: Absence.
Father: You were absent on the day of the test?
Son: No, but the boy who sits next to me was!

В2 –And now try to understand some graffities from one American school!

School and Classroom graffiti

Keep the school tidy; throw your rubbish out of the windows.

Our teacher's a treasure; we wonder where she was dug up!

I like teachers when they're at home!

Don't be late for school in the morning; stay in bed until the afternoon.

Don't go to school; sleep at home.

We all sprang from monkeys; but some didn't spring far enough.

В1 - We are going to play again. The game is called “Scrambled Lines”. Each team is getting some pieces of paper with lines of the song “Happy New Year” that Abba sang. You should put the lines in the right order. The quickest team is the winner. The first team is having one couplet and the refrain and the second team is having the other couplet and the refrain.

В2 - We are finishing our party. We hope you have got much pleasure and fun. Let us sing a song “Happy New Year” together.
