We are happy to see you at our party. Today we are going to speak about Thanksgiving Day. You know, that it is a very famous and popular holiday in the USA. We’ll do it in such a way: first, we’ll say a word or two about the history of this colourful holiday and then will play a little.
Pupil 1:
All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.
Pupil 2:
Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
God made their glowing colours,
And made their tiny wings.
Pupil 3:
T – for time to be together,
Turkey, talk and tender weather.
H – for harvest stored away,
home and heart, and holiday.
A – for autumn's frosty art
and abundance in the heart.
Pupil 4:
N – neighbours, and November,
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.
Together:
That spells THANKS – for joy in living
and a jolly good Thanksgiving!
Pupil 5:
Welcome to our Thanksgiving party! To begin with we would like to tell you the history of this kind holiday- Thanksgiving Day.
Interpreter: Ми раді вітати вас на нашому святі, присвяченому Дню подяки і хотіли б розповісти вам історію його виникнення.
Author: In 1620 on the 22nd of December a ship named the Mayflower brought 102 Englishmen to the rocky coast of what is now Massachusetts, 1 of the 50 states of the USA.
I: 22 грудня 1620 року корабль під назвою «Травнева квітка» привіз 102 англійців до скелястого берегу теперішнього Массачусетса, 1 из 50ти штатів США.
A: The ship’s passengers were Puritans – members of a religion sect which was unpopular in Britain because they wanted to reform the church of England.
I: Пасажирами корабля були Пуританці- члени релігійної секти, яка була заборонена у Британії, тому що її метою була реформа англійської церкви. ( На сцену виходять представники команди пілігримів).
Pilgrim1: We are Puritans.
Pilgrim2: We became ‘Pilgrims’ because we were traveling in search of religious freedom. We came to America to practice our religion freely.
І: Ми стали пілігримами, тому що подорожували у пошуках вільного віросповідання. Ми прибули до Америки, щоб мати змогу вільно молитися.
A: The people living in America were Native Americans or American Indians.
I: Люди, які населяли Америку були Корінними Американцями або Американськими Індіанцями. (вихід представників команди індіанців).
A: When the Pilgrims landed they founded the colony called Plymouth.
I: Коли Пілігрими зійшли на берег, вони заснували колонію під назвою Плімут.
А: They had only the belongings that they had brought on the small ship!
The winter was so cold! They were starving and nearly half of them died…
І: Із речей у них було лише те, що вони змогли взяти із собою на корабель. Зима була дуже холодною і майже половина з них померла тієї зими.
A: They became good friends with Indians and lived with them in peace.
I: Але вони здружилися з індіанцями і жили з ними мирно.
А: They helped the Pilgrims. They showed them how to hunt, to fish and plant crops.
І:Вони допомогли пілігримам, навчивши їх полювати, рибалити та вирощувати зернові на нових для пілігримів землях.
A: Thanks to the help of Indians, the Plymouth settlers had a good harvest the next fall.
I: Завдяки допомозі індіанців поселенці Плімута зібрали хороший врожай наступної осені.
A: In October 1621 they had 3-day feast of deer, fish and wild turkey and invited Indians to it.
I: В жовтні 1621 року вони організували 3денне свято з олениною, рибою і дикою індичкою та запросили індіанців на нього.
A: Pilgrims thanked God for his blessings.
I: Пілігрими дякували Богу за його благословіння.
A: The 1st Thanksgiving Day was a great success!
I: 1ий День Подяки мав великий успіх.
A: President Abraham Lincoln established Thanksgiving as an official national holiday.
I: Президент Авраам Линкольн зробив День Подяки офіційним національним святом.
A: Now every year on the 4 th Thursday of November American families and friends gather, have a feast and give thanks.
I:Тепер щороку в 4ий четвер листопада американські сім’ї та друзі збираються за столом і промовляють слова подяки .

(Команди вибирають побажання до Дня Подяки серед тих, які присвячені іншим святам).
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
Then sing, young hearts that are full of cheer,
With never a thought of sorrow;
The old goes out, but the glad young year
Comes merrily in tomorrow.
( New Year)
Because today's so special
it really wouldn't do,
to send one simple birthday wish
to last the whole year through...
So this wishes happy moments,
a day when dreams come true,
and a year that's filled with all the things
that mean the most to you.
( Birthday)
There is magic all around us,
You can feel it in the air,
For the lovely signs of springtime
are unfolding everywhere.
It's a time of fulfilled promise,
It's a time of hope and cheer,
Joyful time of resurrection
Blessed Easter time.
( Easter)
My love is like a cabbage:
Devided into two.
The leaves I give to others,
The heart I give to You!
( St. Valentine)
THANKSGIVING WISHES
May you have more reasons to be thankful, each and every year.
May the angels protect you
May the sadness forget you
May happiness be around you
May God bless you
Wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving
May your hearts and home be full of divine blessings on this Thanksgiving!
TASK III
Teacher: Thanks a lot! You have managed to do everything and I think you deserve some fun. This action-game is called “ Pin the feathers on the turkey ”. But before doing it let’s listen to the poem devoted to the turkey the main symbol of Thanksgiving.
This plump turkey spread his tail like a fan.
This plump turkey away he ran.
This plump turkey flew up in a tree.
This plump turkey gobbled at me.
This plump turkey said, “I’ll leave right away,
So the cook can’t find me on Thanksgiving Day.”
Now I’ll tie a kerchief round your eyes and you will have to pin the feathers on the turkey with blind eyes. ( На плакаті намальована індичка без хвоста, учні мають приколоти їй хвіст із зав’язаними очима ).
Teacher: Traditions define a holiday and make it special. In any generation they form a link with the past and comprise a heritage for the future generations. Thanksgiving gives an opportunity to feel this continuous contact of generations The tradition of celebrating Thanksgiving Day is deeply rooted in American history. And symbols of this holiday are just the same.
Pupil: Традиції визначють свято і роблять його особливим. В будь-якому поколінні вони утворюють зв'язок з минулим і включають в себе спадщину для майбутніх поколінь. День подяки дає можливість відчути цей безперервний контакт поколінь, традиції святкування Дня подяки мають глибокі корені в історії Америки. А символи цього свята такі ж як і були сотні років тому.

THE HORN OF PLENTY (THE CORNUCOPIA) – is a familiar Thanksgiving symbol of earth’s bounty, and reminds us how much of our food comes from the earth.
Pupil: Ріг достатку - це символ подяки щедрості землі, і нагадує нам про те, як багато нашої їжі родить земля
Teacher: We are also thankful to our nearest and dearest for many things. Let’s make a Horn of Plenty.

A THANKSGIVING PRAYER
Dear Lord, on this Thanksgiving Day
With grateful hearts we bow and pray
For blessings given from our birth
Exceeding way beyond our worth
For friends who've proven to be true;
For pets, which count as friendships too;
For home and country,
Health and love
All sent to us from Heaven above.
Lord, please continue to be near
And guide us through another year.
By Carol Neumann Jersey City, New Jersey
Господи, в цей День подяки
Ми схиляємось з прихильністю
У серці та молимося:
За всі ті милості, які дано нам з народження,
За справжніх друзів,
І щоб у житті було все погоджено.
За домашніх тварин,
За сім’ю і за рідну країну,
За здоров’я, любов,
І до рідної хати стежину.
За все, що нам зверху дано,
Ми молимось справжньо і щиро.
(Авторський переклад Паливоди Єлизавети, 11-Б клас,2010р)
The teacher thanks all pupils who have taken part in the festival and reads aloud his ( her) note.
The conclusion
It is good to pause one day each year to take an account of yourself and your surroundings. Thanksgiving gives an opportunity to feel this continuous contact of generations. Thanksgiving is a time for sharing. It is better to give than to receive. Let us appreciate everything we are given! Let us love our parents, relatives, teachers and friends! Let us say thanks for everything!
All together: THANKS!
