ХОД УРОКА
Учитель. Good afternoon, boys and girls! Today you'll see a mini-show which is devoted to the popular holiday «Halloween». Welcome to our Halloween Party!
Ведущий. Good afternoon, boys and girls! Halloween is one of the best holidays for children. People celebrate Halloween on the 31-st of October. Halloween colors are orange and black. During the early years of the Christian era people celebrated Halloween with games, bonfires, parties. Today, of course, Halloween has degenerated into a candy-collecting orgy by costumed youngsters who travel from house to house crying out»Trick or Treat!»
