Presentation Transcript

Slide 1: 

The Night Before Christmas www.hiyah.net Press the spacebar

Slide 2: 

T’was the Night Before Christmas

Slide 3: 

When all though the house

Slide 4: 

Not a creature was stirring

Slide 5: 

Not even a mouse.

Slide 6: 

The stockings were hung

Slide 7: 

By the chimney with care

Slide 8: 

In hopes that Saint Nicholas

Slide 9: 

Soon would be there.

Slide 10: 

The children were nestled

Slide 11: 

All snug in their beds

Slide 12: 

While visions of sugar-plums

Slide 13: 

Danced in their heads.

Slide 14: 

And mama in her kerchief

Slide 15: 

And I in my cap

Slide 16: 

Had just settled down

Slide 17: 

For a long winter’s nap.

Slide 18: 

Then out on the lawn

Slide 19: 

There arose such a clatter

Slide 20: 

I sprang from my bed

Slide 21: 

To see what was the matter.

Slide 22: 

Away to the window

Slide 23: 

I flew like a flash

Slide 24: 

Tore open the shutters

Slide 25: 

And threw up the sash.

Slide 26: 

The moon on the breast

Slide 27: 

Of the new fallen snow.

Slide 28: 

Gave the luster of mid-day

Slide 29: 

To objects below.

Slide 30: 

When what to my wondering

Slide 31: 

Eyes should appear?

Slide 32: 

But a miniature sleigh

Slide 33: 

And eight tiny reindeer.

Slide 34: 

With a little old driver

Slide 35: 

So lively and quick

Slide 36: 

I knew in a moment

Slide 37: 

It must be Saint Nick.

Slide 38: 

More rapid than eagles

Slide 39: 

His coursers, they came

Slide 40: 

And he whistled and shouted

Slide 41: 

As he called them by name. Reindeer Needed:

Slide 42: 

“Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer!”

Slide 43: 

“Now, Prancer , and Vixen!”

Slide 44: 

“On, Comet! On, Cupid!

Slide 45: 

“On, Donner, and Blitzen !”

Slide 46: 

To the top of the porch!

Slide 47: 

To the top of the wall!

Slide 48: 

Now, dash away! Dash away!

Slide 49: 

Dash away all!

Slide 50: 

As dry leaves that before

Slide 51: 

The wild hurricane fly

Slide 52: 

When they meet with an obstacle

Slide 53: 

Mount to the sky.

Slide 54: 

So up to the housetop

Slide 55: 

His coursers they flew

Slide 56: 

With a sleigh full of toys

Slide 57: 

And Saint Nicholas too.

Slide 58: 

And then in a twinkling

Slide 59: 

I heard on the roof

Slide 60: 

The prancing and pawing

Slide 61: 

Of each little hoof.

Slide 62: 

As I drew in my hand

Slide 63: 

And was turning around

Slide 64: 

Down the chimney

Slide 65: 

Saint Nicholas came with a bound.

Slide 66: 

He was dressed all in fur

Slide 67: 

From his head

Slide 68: 

To his foot.

Slide 69: 

And his clothes were all tarnished

Slide 70: 

With ashes and soot.

Slide 71: 

A bundle of toys

Slide 72: 

He had flung on his back

Slide 73: 

And he looked like a peddler

Slide 74: 

Just opening his pack.

Slide 75: 

His eyes

Slide 76: 

How they twinkled!

Slide 77: 

His dimples

Slide 78: 

How merry!

Slide 79: 

His cheeks

Slide 80: 

Were like roses

Slide 81: 

His nose

Slide 82: 

Like a cherry!

Slide 83: 

His droll little mouth

Slide 84: 

Was drawn up like a bow

Slide 85: 

And the beard on his chin

Slide 86: 

Was as white as the snow.

Slide 87: 

The slump of a pipe

Slide 88: 

He held tight in his teeth

Slide 89: 

And the smoke

Slide 90: 

It encircled his head

Slide 91: 

Like a wreath.

Slide 92: 

He had a broad face

Slide 93: 

And a little round belly

Slide 94: 

That shook when he laughed

Slide 95: 

Like a bowl full of jelly.

Slide 96: 

He was chubby and plump

Slide 97: 

A right jolly old elf

Slide 98: 

I laughed when I saw him

Slide 99: 

In spite of myself.

Slide 100: 

A wink of his eye

Slide 101: 

And a turn of his head

Slide 102: 

Soon gave me to know

Slide 103: 

I had nothing to dread.

Slide 104: 

He spoke not a word

Slide 105: 

But went straight to his work

Slide 106: 

And filled all the stockings

Slide 107: 

Then turned with a jerk.

Slide 108: 

And laying his finger

Slide 109: 

Aside of his nose

Slide 110: 

And giving a nod

Slide 111: 

Up the chimney he rose.

Slide 112: 

He sprang to his sleigh

Slide 113: 

To his team gave a whistle

Slide 114: 

And away they all flew

Slide 115: 

Like the down of a thistle.

Slide 116: 

But I heard him exclaim

Slide 117: 

As he drove out of sight.

Slide 118: 

“Merry Christmas to all!”

Slide 119: 

“And to all a good night!”
