Cultural intellectual show (8 класс).

Greeting: Hello, ladies and gentlemen! We are glad to see you at our cultural intellectual show.

1. Every nation has got its own customs and traditions. The culture of each nation is really unequalled.
2. As well as national costume, national dishes and a national sport, a nation should have a dance. Argentina has its tango, Poland has the polka, Russia has the russkaya plyasovaya and England has the Morris.
3. Every May Day outside the village pubs of England you can see colorfully dressed people gimping into the air, waving handkerchiefs and sticks with bells jingling from their clothing. They perform a traditional Morris dance and welcome the return of spring.

Let’s sing and dance.

Spring is here, spring is here

That’s what people say.

The birds are flying north again

To wake us every day.

                                                                Spring is here, spring is here

                                                                That’s what people say

                                                                 We can run and jump again

                                                                 We out our sled away.
