Its a month away from Christmas and decked the halls with holiday cheer here at TREE. Decorations are not only inside the school, we have strung Christmas lights outside as well. According to early Christmas traditions, only the Christmas Tree had any sort of luminaries. Until this time, Christmas Trees were decorated with lit candles. Lighting candles and placing them on a dry tree was incredibly dangerous. Many house fires occurred around this time, but people took the risk anyway. Edison`s Christmas lights were much safer than using candles and more versatile too! Edison himself strung Christmas lights outside around his home during the holiday season so people passing by could see! From this time on, decorating the outside of one`s house became a common Christmas tradition for people in America.
At TREE, we do our best to expose our students to American culture in an effort to give them a deeper understanding of English. English fluency isn`t just knowing the words, culture is important too! Happy Holidays.
