March Seventeen
Don’t be seen
Unless you’re wearing
A touch of green.
A skirt, a shirt
A
button, a sock –
A splash of green
From the old shamrock.
If you don’t wear green
So, the Irish say –
You deserve a pinch
For St. Patrick’s day!
Слайд 4
Saint Patrick’s Day is a holiday that began
in Ireland. Saint Patrick is the patron saint of
Ireland but he was not Irish. He was born in England and he went to Ireland to work as a missionary and teach Christianity to the Irish.
Слайд 5
Saint Patrick’s Day is celebrated on March 17th
because it is the day that Saint Patrick died.
This day is an important religious holiday in Ireland. It is also celebrated in other parts of the world, but it is not very serious. In England, the United States, Canada, and Australia, people wear green and celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day with parades. In the city of Chicago, the river is dyed green on Saint Patrick’s Day! People all around the world who aren’t Irish like to celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day because it is a lot of fun!
Слайд 6
People wear shamrocks on Saint Patrick’s Day because
it is the symbol of Saint Patrick. A shamrock
is a small green plant with three leaves.
I have a little shamrock
Its green as green can be.
Watch me as I count the leaves
One, two, three.
Слайд 7
Sometimes people wear green hats to look like
leprechauns. A leprechaun is a small fairy that Irish
people tell stories about. They believe that leprechauns live at the end of the rainbow, and each leprechaun has a pot of gold. If you catch a leprechaun, you will get to keep his gold!
Слайд 8
I’m a little leprechaun, dress in green,
The
tiniest man that you have ever seen.
If you
ever catch me so it’s told
I’ll give you my pot of gold.
Слайд 9
Saint Patrick's Day is usually celebrated with a
