Хід Проведення:

 

Leader 1: Dear Friend! You are welcome to our party, dedicated to St. Valentine's Day, which is always held on February 14th and brings us happiness and good luck. St. Valentine is one of the popular holidays in Europe and America. It is the day, when boys and girls, sweethearts and lovers, husbands wives, friends and neighbours, and even the office staff, exchange greetings of affection, undying love or satirical comment. On that day people send Valentines, special cards with messages, to their wives and husbands, relatives and even neighbours. Traditionally, you must never write your name on it. Merry Valentines have remarkable poems, others are humo­rous. Almost all of thorn ask «Be my Valentine».

Leader 2: Love! Happiness! Beauty! There are not so many days in a year when we pronounce these pleasant words. Today you have an excellent chance to take part in party — games. Hap­py St. Valentino's Day!

The song: «My heart will go on» is playing.

Pupil 5: Weeks before the fourteenth of February, shop windows are decorated with red paper hearts, red streamers and boxes of chocolates. Heart-shaped cakes and sweets are baked and gifts such as perfume and jewellery are promoted by department stores. Red roses are orde­red from florists, dinner reservations are made and presents are bought in preparation for Va­lentine's Day. Even cards and small gifts are made by young children at school.

Pupil 6: On Valentines' Day, many people wear something red, since it is considered to be the colour of love. Gifts, wrapped in shiny paper and red ribbons, are exchanged, women receive bouquets of flowers and people express their feelings to their loved ones. In the evening, ma­ny couples choose to dine at romantic restaurants while others enjoy spending time together at home. Valentine's Day is a time to let people know how much you love and appreciate them. It is a day that makes everyone feel romantic and happy.

Leader 1: (says to (the audience) St. Valentine's Day has roots ir several different legends. But we prefer the following one.

Three students perform a scene.

Scene:

Author: Three hundred years after the death of Jesus Christ, the Roman emperors still deman­ded that everyone believed in the Roman gods. Valentine, a Christian priest, had been thrown to prison for his teaching. Moreover, the emperor forbade all the men to get married because he was sure that

marriage makes men weaker and he needed only strong men. But Valentine broke the law and was beheaded.

 

 

A Roman: Valentine, you are accused of spreading your false ideas. Besides, you secretly mar­ried couples, counter to the laws of the Roman emperor. Tomorrow on the 14th of February, you will be executed. We'll fulfill your last wish.

Valentine: I'd like to write a farewell letter to the jailer's daughter. «My sweetheart!

Tomorrow we'll part forever. Thank you for your kind heart and tenderness. In this dark Ja­il our hearts were touched by the fire of love and truth. May God bless you with wisdom and compassion.

Your Valentine».

Author: Years passed. Valentine became a saint. St. Valentine's now is a day for sweethearts. You can show your love to a person by sending presents, flowers or «Valentines», greeting cards named after the message that St. Valentine wrote from his jail.

 

The song «Only you» by Elvis Presley is playing. All the students leave the stage.

 

Leader 2: So, dear students, you’ve just got to know the history of this day. Divide into two teams and choose captains. And now I need both captains from each team. You will take part  in such competition: I will give yon the sentences with one word missing, and different answers to them. Yon have lo choose the correct one.

Pupils 7: Hundreds of years ago in England, many children dressed up as adults on Valentine's

Day. They went singing from home to home. One verse they sang was:

Good morning to you, valentine: (unlock your locks as I do mine - Two before and three behind. Good morning to you, valentine,

Pupils 8: In some countries, a young woman may receive a gift of clothing from a young man. If she keeps the gift, it means she will marry him.

 

Pupils 9: In Wales wooden love spoons were carved and given as gifts on February 14^th. Hearts, keys and keyholes were favorite decorations on the spoons. The decoration meant, «You unlock my, heart! »

 

Pupils 10: Some people used to believe that if a woman saw a robin flying overhead on Valen­tine's Day; it meant she would marry a sailor. If she saw a sparrow, she would marry a poor man and be very happy. If she saw a goldfinch, she would! marry a millionaire.

 

 Pupils 11: In the middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to, see who their valentines would be. They would wear these names on their sleeves for one week. To we­ar you heart on your sleeve now means that it is easy/ for other people to know how you are fe­eling.

 

Pupils 12: In Britain, people spend $22 million on. Valentine's Day, with traditionally romantic people buying 7 million red roses! In the more exclusive parts of central London, a single red rose could cost a young lover up to $10! Your Valentine's Day, flower or gift can really show 'how much' you care!
