In our last English
lesson we talked about Guy Fawkes Day! Who, when, where, how, and why is
the Guy Fawkes Day celebrated? Let me answer this questions. This day is celebrated
in Great Britain on November 5th. Children make figures, called the “guys”, out
of rags or old clothes and display them in the street. The kids call out “Penny
for the guy!” and collect money from passers-by. In the evening when it gets
dark, people let of rockets and Catherine wheels, born on bonfires and make
parties. But why do the British people celebrate this day? They celebrate the Guy
Fawkes Day in memory of an unsuccessful plot to blow up the King and Parliament
in 1605.
I hope you know now more about this day an

See you soon,
