Yes, it is St.Valentine’s Day. It is a religious holiday which is celebrated in Great Britain, in many European countries and in the USA. And from the last year it is celebrated in our country too. This is a happy day because it is specially dedicated to celebrate love, affection and friendship. I want to start our lesson with you the beautiful poems.

 No one really knows the actual origin of Saint Valentine’s Day. I think it has its roots in several different legends that have found their way through the ages. Let’s listen them.

II. Аудирование рассказов.

1^st pupils – Many historians, however, seem to trace it to ancient Roman festival called Lupecalia. This celebration was held on February 15^th to honour Faunus the god of animal life, hunting, herding.

2^nd pupil – I’d like to tell you another legend about this holiday. When the Roman Emperor Claudius II needed soldiers, he made a law against marriage. Claudius believed that single young men better soldiers, and marriage would make men want to stay at home. A kind priest, Valentine by name, saw the love of young couples, so he married them secretly against the law. But Valentine was discovered and condemned to death.

3d pupil – Another legend says that Saint Valentine was a good friend of children. He was a Christian. He would not worship the Roman gods. That’s why he was put into prison. While he was there the children that he had befriended missed him and brought him loving notes. His jailer had a young daughter who was blind. And Valentine performed a miracle. He cured the jailer’s daughter of her blindness. Just before his death on February 14, he sent a farewell letter “From your Valentine”.

There are also some important symbols of this holiday. Let’s learn about them.

4^th pupil

Heart. Emotions are feelings such as love, happiness, anger, or fear. A long time 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.

5^th pupil

Red rose. The rose was the favourite flower of Venus, the Roman goddess of love. Red is a colour that stands for strong feelings.

6^th pupil

Ribbons. Ribbons go back to the days, when ladies gave ribbons to their favourite knights when they went to war.

7^th pupil

Lace. Lace comes from a latin word, it means “to catch”. Lace was supposed to catch the heart of a loved one.

8^th pupil

Cupid. Son of Venus, goddess of love. He could cause people to fall in love by piercing them with one of his magic arrows.

All holidays has its own traditions. And now I want you to read a short interesting text about it.

III.Чтение текста.
