Teacher:Christmas is Christian holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. (Slide 3)

 No one knows the exact date of Christ’s birth but most Christie celebrate Christmas on December 25. People in the United States decorate their homes with Christmas trees. City streets are filled with colored lights; the sound of bells and Christmas carols can be heard everywhere.

A Christmas tree is one of the main symbols of Christmas in most homes. Presents are placed under the tree. On Christmas Eve or Christmas morning, families open their presents. Some children hang up stockings so Santa Claus can fill them with candy, fruit and other small gift.

People send greeting cards to all their relatives and friends. Children write letters to Santa Claus and tell him what presents they would like to get.

On Christmas Eve when children go to bed they put their Xmas stockingsover the fire-place.

At night Father Christmas comes. He has got a big bag of presents for children. He puts the presents into the children’s stockings.

For Christmas people eat traditional food: turkey, potatoes and green vegetables. Then they have the Christmas pudding. At 5 o’clock it’s time for tea and for Christmas cake. (Slide 4)

New Year’s Eve is widely celebrated in America. Whether they spend the night at a party, a bar or quietly at home, many Americans turn on the TV shortly before midnight Eastern Standard Time to watch a giant ball drop in Times Square in New York City.
