A short speech on the Christmas tree (Classes 3 to 5)
Good morning, everyone. Today I will speak about the Christmas tree.
The Christmas tree is usually an evergreen tree, like a fir or pine. Because it stays green even in winter, it stands for hope. Families decorate it with lights, bells, baubles and a bright star on top, and keep gifts under it for Christmas morning.
To me, the Christmas tree is a symbol of joy, sharing and togetherness. Merry Christmas and thank you.
