Then, I shall describe the decorations.

Christmas is a family event. However, not everyone(provide figures/stats) see Christmas as a religious festival. None Christian’s also celebrate Christmas. (None Christian’s indicates anyone which isn’t a Christian and thus covers Athesist’s, Hindu’s etc.).

Shops make a vast amount of revenue due to Christmas marketing, as the typical family spends $ 800 every year on Christmas gifts. Other than gifts a family must purchase decorations, cards, food and many other things. (folie mit dekoration, karte und essen auflegen) (folie mit geschenke)

An abundance of Christmas cards shall be posted; some people send cards out on the first of December. (folie mit karte) .

There are many traditions in America. The traditions have many origins because people have emigrated in America from different countries, most notably Ireland, England, and Spain. (folie mit verschiedenen flaggen auflegen).

The typical home generally has the following decorations. A Christmas tree, A mistletoe branch, and Poinsettias.

Christmas trees were an idea which originally surfaced in Germany. One decorated a tree with Christmas related paraphernalia, such as a Star, baubles, figurines of Angels/Santa Claus, lights, and tinsel.

(Folie mit Mistelzweig auflegen)

Mistletoe is originally from the United Kingdom, and they are usually created from mistletoe branches. One hangs a mistletoe branch above their doorframe. Anyone which stands under it may be kissed,but, when someone is kissed, a berry must be removed from the ivy branch;  nobody may not be kissed when there isn’t a berry on the mistletoe branch.

Poinsettias are originally from Mexico, and are placed on a fireplace. The tradition to use poinserrias for Christmas decoration arose due to a fairytale in which a child was too poor to buy something for Jesus’s birthday and thus was instructed by an Angel to pick poinsettias.

Okay. My topic today is „Christmas in the USA

Now I want to write a short overview.

First I want to give you some general information.
Next, I'll tell you something about the decorations.
Then I'll show you a few american Christmas Songs.
Then I will do something about the days of Christmas.
Also, I will tell you something about Santa Claus.
And finally, I tell you what Americans eat for Christmas dinner.-

Christmas is for many people a family event, but not everyone see Christmas as a religious festival. Many Jews and Muslims celebrate Christmas, although it is not in their religion.

Also for shops it is a good time. They make a very good turnover. Families spend on average $800 every year on gifts alone. This doesn't include decorations, cards, food and many other things.

Many Christmas cards will be sent out. Some people have already started to send the first cards. Here is an example. Chloe's grandma sends a postcard to wish her Merry Christmas.

There are many traditions in America. The traditions have many origins because people have emigrated to America from different countries.  The Christmas tree is originally from Germany, the mistletoe is originally from england and decorating the fireplace with poinsettias is taken from Mexico.

Mistletoe:
One hangs the mistletoe branch on the doorframe or on something high. Everyone, who stands under it, may be kissed,  but after every kiss one berry must be picked and if no more berries hang on it, nobody can be kissed anymore, until a new mistletoe branch is hung.
