Autumn Festival

Good morning, dear guests. I’m glad to see you. I have got a letter. It is a birthday card. I don’t know whose birthday it is. But I think you like to travel. Let’s come with me to the magic country.

Neznaiko and the Queen.

N: Hi! My name is Neznaiko and who are you?

The Queen: Hello, my dear boy. I am a queen. Are you in a good mood?

N: Yes, I am.

The Queen: It’s great. And how old are you, my dear?

N: I m 8.

The Queen: Where do you live?

N: I live in Flower Town. My town is very beautiful. There are many flowers at every house I live in Blue Bell Street.

The Queen: So, you are the right boy. I wrote you the letter. I want to invite you to the party. I have got 4 daughters. Here they are:

Spring: I am green

Summer: I am bright

Autumn: I am yellow

Winter: I am white.

N: Oh, your daughters are 4 seasons

Spring: That’s right. Spring is green

Summer is bright

Autumn is yellow

Winter is white

The Queen: Good for you. And one of them has her birthday today. But who is she? My daughters tell you the riddle.

Spring: Its cold

Summer: Its rainy

Autumn: Birds don’t sing songs

Winter: It brings fruit and vegetables.

N: I don’t know

Spring: What a rainy season,

Summer: The sky is dark and grey.

Autumn: No sunshine any more,

Winter: No playing out of doors

The Queen: Dear Neznaiko, what season is it now?

N: I know, I know it’s autumn.

Autumn; Yes, it’s really me, the Golden Autumn. I come after summer when days become cool September, October and November are my months, I bring a lot of fruit and vegetables. The nature is beautiful. The leaves are red, brown, green and yellow. The days are short at nights are long. It’s often gloomy and rainy. Birds fly away. People go to the forest to gather mushrooms. They bring home baskets full of mushrooms. It’s also harvest time. And of course, this is the season when children go to school. One day you get up and see snow on the ground. Also I’m rich with gold and full of wonderful holidays. They are: the first of September- the day of Knowledge, the ninth of September- the World day Beauty, the first week of October-the Teachers Day, the 31-st of October – Halloween, the day of Pokrova and the Harvest Festival. And I’m the Princess of today’s holiday.

N: Let’s sing a song to Autumn Happy Birthday To You. (Everybody sing)

Autumn: Thank you.

N: Look, Autumn, the leaves are coming.

Leaves: Happy Birthday! Be happy and wealthy!

This is the season

When fruit is sweet,

This is the season,

When school-friends meet.

When noisy and gay

And browned in the sun,

With their books and bags

To school they run.

It is autumn, it is cold

I put on my yellow coat,

My hat and glovers,

My pants are grey

And I am warm and I am O.K.

It is raining, it is wet

I put on my violet hat,

Violet suit,

My glovers are white

And I am warm, I am all right!

The leaves are falling

From the trees

Yellow, brown and red

They patter softly

Like the rain

One landed on my heads!

Warm September brings us school,

Days are shorter, nights are cool.

Fresh October brings much fruit,

Then to gather them is good.

Red November brings us joy, Fun for every girl and boy.
