Christmas in England!
Apologies to anyone who has been eagerly awaiting for me to upload more blogs. So far I am really enjoying my time at IES DRE, working along side the teachers and with the students, as well as enjoying my time in Spain.
So far I have learnt a lot from Spanish culture, so in return, I thought I would share some culture from back home, and in this blog, I will refer to specifically to Christmas in England!
Here I have a presentation I made for my Music students about Christmas in England, Enjoy!
Christmas
in England!
Christmas
Films!
At
Christmas time, many christmas films are played on TV.
England has many classic christmas films, which
includes classic christmas music.
One example is a film called the Snowman,
which has a very
famous scene that includes a very famous christmas song!
Have you heard it before?
Christmas
Carols!
In England, it is a tradition that
children go round on Christmas day, or the days around christmas,
singing christmas
carols for their neighbours
knocking from door to door.
Although it is a tradition, not many
people do it as much anymore because it is seen as very religious, and England
is becoming more and more secular.
Usually, once you the children finish
their christmas
carol, they are given a sweet or some money and they move on to the next house.
Christmas
songs!
At christmas time, England plays many christmas
songs on the radio.
Many christmas songs are quite old now, but because
they are christmas
songs, they always get played, and no one ever gets bored of them.
Modern
Christmas songs!
Now there are more modern christmas
songs that get played at christmas
time!
But they are not as popular as the old
classics that get played in England.
But I Still like them very much!
One of my favourite christmas songs is Mistletoe by Justin Bieber!
My
all time favourite christmas
song!
My all time favourite
Christmas song, is by Chris Rea, called driving home for christmas!
