Ход мероприятия:
S1: Today we are going to celebrate St. Valentine’s Day. No one really knows the origin of it. There are many legends. According to one this day is connected with an ancient Roman Festival called Lupercalia. This was on February, 15 to honor the patron of husbandry
S2: The next story tells us that St. Valentine was a priest who would marry young couples secretly when the Roman Emperor Claudius 2 forbade marriages. He believed that single man were better soldiers.
S1: Another story tells us about St. Valentine who was a good friend to children. He was against the Roman Gods and that is why he was put in prison. When he was imprisoned the children brought him loving letters. It was on February, 14.
S2: Some people think that is why we give friendly and loving messages to each other on this day. Written valentines began in the 15th century. Paper valentines were especially popular in England. For a long time valentines were made by hand, but at the beginning of the 19th century factories began to make valentines. They were black and white pictures. Some of them were painted by workers in the factory. But most people bought pictures and did their own paintings.
There’re many symbols of Valentine’s Day. Listen to the stories about some of them.
Heart. Emotions are feelings such as love, happiness, anger, or fear. A long time ago people believed that all the emotions were found in the heart. In later years they thought only the emotion of love was connected with the heart. The heart is still a symbol of love and because of this; it is also a symbol of Valentine’s Day.
Red Rose. The rose was the favorite flower of Venus, the Roman goddess of love. Red is a color that stands for strong feelings. That is why the red rose is a flower of love.
Ribbons. Ribbons go back to the days when ladies gave ribbons to their favorite knights when they went to war.
Lace|leɪs| кружево. Lace comes from a Latin word; it means “to catch”. Lace was supposed to catch the heart of a loved one. Lace is a pretty fabric made by weaving together fine threads. Hundreds of years ago women carried lace handkerchiefs. A man nearby might pick it up and return it to her. Sometimes a woman might see a man she wanted to meet. She might drop her lace handkerchief on purpose to encourage romance. Soon people thought of romance when they thought of lace. They began using paper lace to decorate chocolate boxes and Valentine cards.
Gloves. Years ago when a man proposed marriage to a woman he asked “for her hand”. The hand became the symbol of marriage and love. Soon gloves also became a symbol of love.
Rings. In some countries men and women exchange rings when they became engaged or marry. Two or three hundred years ago Valentine’s Day was a popular day for giving an engagement ring. The ring usually had stone or jewel set in it. Diamonds are common in today engagement rings.
Love knot бант как символ любви, союза (завязывается восьмёркой). A love knot is a series of winding and interlacing loops with no beginning and no end. It is a symbol of endless love. People made love knots from ribbon or drew them on paper. Often, a message was written on the love knot. The message had no beginning or end. It could be repeated endlessly.
Love birds and Doves. Lovebirds are colorful parrots found in Africa. Most have red bills.
They are called love birds because they sit closely together in pairs. Doves were thought to be favorite birds of Venus |ˈviːnəs| Венера. They remain with the same mates all their lives. The males and females both care for their babies. As these birds are symbols of loyalty and love they are also symbols of Valentine’s Day.
Cupid |ˈkjuːpɪd|. Son of Venus|ˈviːnəs| Венера, goddess of love. He could cause people to fall in love by piercing |ˈpɪəsɪŋ| пронзив them with one of his magic arrows|ˈæroʊz стрела|.

St. Valentine’s Day is a Day of love. So many poems were written about love. Let’s listen to one of them.
Poem “Love is a wonderful thing.”
LOVE is a wonderful thing Though it’s sad.LOVE makes you happyAnd goes to your head.LOVE keeps you livelyWhen others are down.LOVE keeps you smilingNo face of a frown.LOVE keeps you warmOn a cold winter’s night.LOVE makes you daydreamMake things seem alright.LOVE seems for ever.LOVE never ends.Until those dreaded wordsLet’s still be friends.
Любовь – чудесная штука,Хотя и печальная жутко.Любовь счастьем тебя наполняет,И мысли твои собой опьяняет.Любовь придаёт тебе силы,Когда унынье владеет другими.Любовь улыбку твою бережёт,И хмуриться тебе совсем не даёт.Любовь тебя согреваетХолодной ночью зимы.Любовь приносит мечты.И видеть мир в розовом свете тебя заставляет.И кажется, словно любовь с тобой навсегда.Что любовь не уйдёт от тебя никогда,Пока мечты не умрут под словамиО предложенье остаться друзьями.
Poems sound so sweet because they are about love and friendship.
T: Well. Now I’d like to tell you some words about Valentine Facts and Superstitions.
Сотни лет назад в Англии дети одевались, как взрослые в день Св. Валентина. Они ходили, распевая песни от дома к дому. Одна из таких песенок звучала так:
Good morning to you Valentine,Curl your locks as I do mine -Two before and three behindGood morning to you Valentine.
В Уэльсе вырезались деревянные ложки любви и дарились 14 февраля. Сердца, ключи и замочные скважины были любимыми украшениями на ложках. Многие дарят своим друзьям и возлюбленным сладости. В Северной Америке и Европе шоколадные конфеты продаются в красивых коробках в форме сердца. Некоторые коробки украшены цветами и лентами.
В некоторых странах молодая женщина может получить в подарок отрез ткани от молодого человека. Если она сохранит его, это будет значить, что она выйдет за него замуж.
Некоторые люди верили, что, если женщина видела в День Св.Валентина малиновку это означало, что она выйдет замуж за моряка. Если видела воробья, выйдет замуж за бедняка, но будет очень счастлива. А если щегла, то выйдет замуж за миллионера.
А гадать на своих возлюбленных можно целый год. Вы уже знаете, что часто для гадания использовались яблоки. Если вы возьмете черенок от яблока и подбросите его, то в момент падения можно называть имена юношей или девушек. Вы выйдете замуж или женитесь на том, чье имя вы произнесли, когда черенок упал. А разрезав яблоко пополам и сосчитав количество семечек внутри, вы можете узнать сколько у вас будет детей.
Об этом может сказать и одуванчик. Когда вы подуете на него, то количество оставшихся семечек укажет на количество детей, которых вы будете иметь.
В День Св. Валентина молодые люди создавали много шума, догоняя друг друга с веревкой в руках. Боли от ударов они не получали, но зато получали огромное удовольствие.
За кого девушка выйдет замуж могут сказать и пуговицы. Если мы их сосчитаем, приговаривая: Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief, doctor, lawyer, merchant, chief.
Ну и конечно, несколько слов о Valentine’s box. Этой традиции более 2 тысяч лет. Вытаскивая валентинки из коробки, мы похожи на древних римлян, вытаскивающих имена возлюбленных из сосудов. Как прекрасно думать, как много людей сказали: “Будь моим Валентином”.
Now I’d like you to answer some questions:
What is the first name for Valentine’s Day? (Lupercalia. The Romans called it so)
