Ведущий: Good afternoon, dear friends. We are glad to see you here. Today we are going to tell you about a wonderful spring holiday. Now we will listen to about Easter traditions and symbols.
P1. Every country has its traditions. In England traditions play a very important part in the life of the people. Easter comes on a Sunday between March and April. Just before Easter the schools and colleges usually close. The students have a week or ten days of spring vacation. Easter is a church holiday. Easter marks the end of winter and the beginning of spring.
P2. At Easter people buy new clothes to wear on Easter Sunday. There is a popular belief that wearing three new things on Easter will bring good luck in the year. After church services many people like to take walks down the streets in their new Easter hats suits. This colorful procession of people dressed in bring new spring clothes is called the Easter Parade.
P3. Another custom is decorating eggs for children. In many parts of the country, eggs are hidden in the yards and the children have to find them. Little children believe the Easter rabbit comes and leaves the eggs for them. That’s why Easter candy is made in the form of eggs, little chickens and rabbits. Eggs are the symbol of new life. An old English custom is to roll hardboiled eggs down a hill. The last egg to break bring good luck to the one who has rolled it.
Ведущий: - Now let’s listen to the history about Easter traditions and symbols.
P4. The cross. Christ was crucified on a cross, so has come to have a special meaning to Christians. It represents Christ’s victory over death. It is significant Easter symbol.
P5. The Lamb. Jesus was known as the Lamb of God. At one time, the Jews sacrificed a lamb during a Passover festival, and early Christians adopted this as a sigh of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. Lamb is now a traditional Easter meal, and cookies and cakes are often made in the shape of a lamb for Easter.
P6. The eggs. Of course, eggs represent new life. Long ago, some people believed that the earth was hatched from a gigantic egg! Eggs have been exchanged for centuries. Ancient Egyptians dyed eggs and gave them to friends as gifts. In England, friends wrote messages on colored on in many parts of the world today. Some of the most elaborately decorated eggs are Ukrainian found in E. Europe. Often eggs are left by the Easter bunny for children to find on Easter morning much to their delight!
P7, P8. Easter Rabbits. In America and around the world, many children believe that Easter bunny brings Easter eggs and hides them for finding on Easter morning. Where did this tradition begin? There are many different legends, but here is a popular one.
Long ago in Germany there lived an old, loving woman who adored children. Each year she would give children gifts to celebrate spring. One year she had nothing to give because she had grown very poor due to a great famine in the land. All she had here some eggs. She did not want to disappoint the children, so quickly before they arrived for the gifts, she colored the eggs and hid them in the grass. When the children arrived, she told them to run out into the lawn to find their gifts hiding there. Of course, the children ran out into the yard in search of their surprise. Just as one of the children uncovered the eggs, a large rabbit hopped away. So the children thought that the rabbit had left the eggs for them! And ever since have searched for the eggs left by the Easter rabbit on Easter morning.
Ведущий: Alex wants to tell you about this day in Russia.
P9. В этот весенний день, когда на согретых первым солнышком пригорках поднимают пушистые головки желтые цветы мать – и – мачехи, глаза встречных полны особой теплоты - христиане всего мира празднуют Пасху, светлое старейшее и известнейшее из христианских церковных торжеств. В старину люди пели колядки.
Солнышко, ведрышко
выгляни в окошечко,
Солнышко покатись
Красное нарядись.
Скоро пасха придет
Кто нас покачает,
Как у нынешних ребят
Веревок не бывает.
У Казани у реки озеро воды
Молодец коня поил, коня вороного
Коль водицу конь не пьет,
Молодца горе берет.
В карман руки он сует.
С рублик денег достает
С рублик денег достает
Красным девкам дает.
Кто не даст нам яйца - околеет овца.
Не даст сала кусок - околеет телок
Нам не дали сала - коровушка пала.
Вьюница – молодица.
Выходи на крыльцо,
Выноси красное яйцо
А не вынесешь яйцо,
Разломаем все крыльцо.
Ведущий: Let’s listen to some poems and songs.
Bunnies
Bunnies are brown, Bunnies are white
Bunnies are always an Easter delight
Bunnies have ears all pinkish inside
Bunnies all like to hop and to hide.
Bunnies are cuddly, the large and small,
But I like the chocolate ones best of all.
Hot cross buns
Hot cross buns
Hot cross buns
One a penny
Two a penny
Hot cross buns
If you have no daughters
Give them to your sons.
One a penny
Two a penny
Hot cross buns.
Humpty – Dumpty
Humpty – Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty – Dumpty had a great fall
All the king’s horses
And all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty – Dumpty together again.
Rabbits
A family of rabbits lived under a tree
( close hand and hide under tree which is other arm)
A father and mother and babies three
( hold up thumb, then one finger, then the rest.)
Sometimes the bunnies would sleep all day.
(close right hand.)
But when night time came, they liked to play.
( hold up three fingers.)
Ведущий: Now, we are going to sing the songs.
Easter Bells
Easter Bells in churches ring,
People in the churches sing.
Ring – a – ling-a, Ring – a – ling-a, Ring: Sing – a – ling-a, Sing – a – ling-a, Sing.
Easter Bunnies
The air is like a butterfly
With frail blue wings,
The happy earth at the sky
And sing, sing, sing.
At Easter Time
The little flowers came throw the ground. At Easter Time, at Easter Time:
The pure white lily raised its cup. At Easter Time, at Easter Time.
They raised their heads and looked around. At Easter Time, at Easter Time.
The crocus to the sky looked up. At Easter Time, at Easter Time.
