Yesterday (20/12/13), 6th of
primary students were performing a theatre about a famous novel written by
Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol". During this week, they have been
practising the performance in the conversation class and the last school day
before holidays, they performed in front of 5th of primary students who had read this book in their English class.
Here you have a summary of the story
"A Christmas Carol" and some pictures. Enjoy!!
Ebenezer
Scrooge was a rich, old man. He had a lot of money but no friends. He was very
mean, he hated spending money and he hated Christmas. Scrooge
was in his office with Bob Cratchit, who worked for him for very little
money.
Mr.
Scrooge and said: ‘Excuse me, sir. Tomorrow is Christmas
Day, can I stay at home with my children?’
Scrooge
was angry and he said ‘I
don’t pay you to stay at home! Christmas, everybody talks about Christmas! I
hate Christmas!’
After work
Scrooge went home. On
the door was a face. It was Marley’s face – the man who worked with him and now
was dead. The ghost said: ‘Three Spirits will visit you tonight.’ and went
out of the window.
At one o' clock.... ‘I
am the Spirit of Christmas Past’.
The
Spirit showed Scrooge the time when he was a young boy.
At
three o’clock the second Spirit came. It was the Spirit of Christmas Present.
The Spirit took Scrooge to Bob Cratchit’s house. The
family was very poor, they had very little food and one little boy was ill. Scrooge said: I promise I will think about Christmas
next year. Please, take me home now. Spirit, Spirit, where are you?’
He
saw a man dressed in black. ‘Are you the Spirit of Christmas
to come?’ He
showed Scrooge a grave. There were no flowers and no people there. ‘Who
is it?’ asked
Scrooge. On the grave were the words: ‘EBENEZER SCROOGE’.
In
the morning Scrooge woke up in his bed. ‘I am alive, I am alive, I am so
happy!’ He
jumped out of bed singing and dancing. ‘What a beautiful day it is. I
love Christmas.
I love everybody!’’ MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW
YEAR!
