Unit 3 Celebration Let’s enjoy a Christmas song. Jingle bells jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Jingle bells jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Dashing through the snow In a one horse open sleigh Over the fields we go Laughing all the way Bells on bobtail ring Making spirits bright What fun it is to ride and song A sleighing song tonight Jingle bells jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Jingle bells jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Now the ground is white, Go it while you're young, Take the girls along And sing this sleighing song. Just bet a bob-tailed bay, Two-forty as his speed, Hitch him to an open sleigh And crack! you'll take the lead. Do you know the origin of Christmas? Origin of Christmas The name Christmas is short for 'Christ's Mass'. A Mass is a kind of Church service. Christmas is a religious festival. It is the day we celebrate as the birthday of Jesus. There are special Christmas services in Christian churches all over the world. But many of the festivities of Christmas do not have anything to do with religion. Exchanging gifts and sending Christmas cards are the modern ways of celebrating Christmas in the world. And Christmas is the feast of the nativity of Jesus, which is on 25th, December every year. Christmas has become popular since Christmas cards appeared in 1846.
