Like I said, Christmas is a family day in America. We send Christmas with our family. With our family we don’t many things on Christmas. For example, we have a delicious Christmas dinner. Every family is a little bit different but my family usually ate things like ham, potatoes, pie, and many different things. But everything is delicious. This is a picture of my family having Christmas dinner. Do you know where I am? This is me! The dinner was very delicious. We also have presents in America, but giving presents in America and giving presents in Japan on Christmas is a little different. In America everyone gives and gets a present. When I was little I gave and got a present from everyone in my family. But of course I also got presents from Santa. Maybe Santa will come to your house this year. When we wrap the presents we put it under the Christmas tree. On the Christmas tree we put up bright lights and colorful ornaments. It’s very beautiful, especially when it’s dark. In America you can even look for a tree, and if you find one you can cut it down and take in home. It’s very fun but you must be careful. This is my tree at my mom and dad’s house last year. It’s very colorful and very nice. We also put lights on our house. You have to climb a tall ladder and put lights your house. This is a normal Christmas house. But some people really love Christmas so they have a super Christmas house. It’s very colorful. So these are a few things we do on Christmas in America  『English Shower １０』 今回のテーマは、「アメリカのクリスマス」です。ザック先生からの話を聞いて、日本とアメリカのクリスマスのちがいがわかりましたね。明日も引き続きクリスマスの話を聞きます。お楽しみに！ スピーチの内容は以下のとおりです。読み返して内容を確認してください。 〜Christmas in America〜 In 14 days it will be Christmas.

Christmas is on December 25th; everywhere it’s December 25th, but what do you do on Christmas? It depends (on) where you are. Japanese Christmas and American Christmas is very different. For example, in Japan you might have school or work, but in America, usually, we’re free: no work and no school. We can relax. In Japan, if you have time, maybe, you’ll see friends and have a party. In America we spend that day with our family. We do many things on Christmas but we also do many things on December 24th: Christmas eve. Many people get ready for Christmas on Christmas eve. For example we bake Christmas cookies. They’re great. We make delicious pies and other sweet foods. And we wrap presents in special tape and paper. It’s very colorful and nice. And on Christmas eve night many people go to church. We celebrate Christmas at church and celebrate Jesus’ birthday. So this is a little bit about Christmas in America.
