Objectives
■ To read a narrative text and understand the story.
■ To build up an area of vocabulary associated with Christmas.

■ To talk about childhood memories.
Resources used
Pictures/photos you have showing Christmas activities in the UK and any Christmas cards you have received from Englishspeaking friends.
Possible problems
Students may find some of the vocabulary in the text a little difficult and be unwilling to read it quickly the first time, when they are only required to extract the Christmas vocabulary.
Background
A traditional British Christmas includes: in the morning looking into the stockings hung the night before to find out what presents Father Christmas has left; at lunchtime a big meal with turkey, Christmas pudding (a heavy, sweet pudding containing a lot of dried fruit and often covered with burning brandy or brandy butter) served hot. Paper crackers containing paper hats, novelties and jokes are pulled after the meal. Most families decorate the house with paper garlands, balloons, holly and mistletoe and have a real or artificial fir tree decorated with lights. Routes through the material
■ If you are short of time, set some of the exercises for homework and omit Exercise 8.
■ If you have time, students can develop Exercise 7 into a letter to an English friend describing an important festival in China.
Language Power: pages 84?C85.

Exercise 2
Useful vocabulary: calendar, (play) cards, carol service,
Christmas Eve, decorations, jokes, polar bears, speech, windy. Encourage students
to guess the meaning of the other words when they have done Exercise 3.
■ If you wish, divide the class into groups and ask each group to read one paragraph and note down the Christmas words.
■ The groups then report back to the class and all the students read the whole text and find the Christmas words. If students include words associated with winter (e.g. snow, igloo) rather than Christmas specifically, discuss with the students if these should be included in the Christmas words.
