Teacher: Hello, children and guests. I‟m glad to see you today at our lesson. I think you remember it very well that we often spoke about reasons of travelling to Great Britain and other English-speaking countries, about their most popular places, famous people and even organized virtual sightseeing tours. But today let‟s invite the foreigners to come on a visit to our country. So our main purpose is to make foreigners interested in our country and acquire a wish to visit Russia.

II. Актуализация знаний учащихся

Teacher: Imagine that your foreign friends have come on a visit. What would you

tell them about our country first? I think the map and some pictures on the screen

will help you. (Click On Russia, Unit 1)

Pupil 1: The full name of my country is the Russian Federation. Russia is one of

the biggest countries in the world: it is situated in the eastern part of Europe and

the northern part of Asia. The territory of my country is over 17 mln square

kilometers. The size of Russia is really hard to imagine. It stretches from south to

north for four thousand kilometers, from east to west for nine thousand kilometers.

Pupil 2: Russia is a country of long rivers and deep lakes. The longest and the most

popular rivers are the Ob, the Lena, the Yenissei, the Volga and others. It‟s

interesting to know that the Volga is the longest river in Europe. The Baikal is the

deepest lake in the world and it is known that it contains as much fresh water as all

five Great Lakes taken together.

Pupil 3: Russia is a country of long history and a lot of old traditions. Very often

foreigners come to our country to visit our historical museums and art galleries.

Even in our small town there is a Museum of History and Art. It tells a lot of

interesting facts about our place and our people. And one more thing – foreigners

enjoy visiting our shops and markets so as to buy Russian traditional souvenirs:

samovars, matryoshkas, tableware from Khokhloma, painted boxes in the style of

Palekh and others.

III. Совершенствование навыков чтения с различными стратегиями.

a) совершенствование навыка чтения с целью извлечения полной

информации и построения диалога на основе прочитанного

Teacher: I think that tourists who come on a visit to our country are very much

interested in our history, our symbols and traditions. Really Russian symbols are

worth seeing and telling about. Look at the screen and read the text about the

Russian flag and the Russian emblem…But half of you will read the text “The

Russian Flag” and the other half will read the text “The Russian Emblem”. After

reading you‟ll have to exchange the information you‟ve got.

(диалог-обмен информацией – учащиеся работают в парах, обмениваясь

полученной из текста информацией)

b) совершенствование навыка чтения с целью излечения

отдельных деталей и построения монологического высказывания на основе

прочитанного.

Teacher: I agree with you that Russia is a very large country. But we are more

proud for our greatest people. You can‟t but agree that our motherland has given

the world talented scientists, famous philosophers, well-known inventors,

outstanding musicians, writers, artists and, of course, creative politicians. They

make the national property of our country. You have Word Webs before you.

Write everything you remember about Peter the Great.

Учащиеся заполняют словесные паутины, опираясь на свои знания из

истории и общие знания, обмениваются информацией друг с другом.

Teacher: Look at the screen, find the text about Peter the Great, read it and fill in

the Word Webs again. Compare your clusters and read all the new information

you‟ve got.

После этой работы учащимся предоставляется возможность подготовить

монологические высказывания о Петре I, используя заполненные словесные

паутины, как план.

монологические высказывания учащихся могут быть такими:

Every country is proud of their people and

especially people who did much for the

improvement and development of our Motherland.

I’d like to tell you about Peter the Great who was

a great personality. He was the tsar of Russia for

43 years. He was the first Russian emperor. It

was Peter the Great who “opened the window into

Europe.

Teacher: One of the topics which has always been interesting for tourists is the

question of the political system and democracy in Russia. The questions which

they more often ask are the following:

- Is Russia a democratic country?

- What political and social rights do citizens in Russia enjoy?

- What do you think of the voting system in your country?

And it‟s not a secret at all that those who come to Russia from abroad want to

find some drawbacks with our democracy and political system.

Can you name any contemporary outstanding politicians in our country?

учащиеся называют Путина В.В., Медведева, Зубкова,

Teacher: Can you name the qualities any politician should have? Fill in this Word

Web “What a Real Politician Should Be?” and roleplay the following situations.

Презентация проектных работ учащихся с использованием мультимедийных

средств.

Teacher: Your hometask was to make a miniproject under the title “Welcome to

Russia” and be ready to defend your ideas. Let‟s do it now. Look at the screen and

present your works. Учащиеся по очереди представляют свои проектные

работы. Во время их защиты они сообщают источники, которыми они

пользовались во время подготовки.

IV. Заключительный этап урока. Подведение итогов, выставление

оценок, комментирование.We would be very happy if we could

convince the foreigners to come to our country.

Look at the message from Nick, a French boy studying in Canada. Read it

and say what he finds interesting and boring about the school.

После прочтения и выполнения задания данного перед текстом, учащимся

предстоит заполнить следующую таблицу и провести параллель, сравнив

школу Ника со своей.

a) Find in the text the following facts and complete the table.

Nick‟ school in Canada Your school

1 The size of school very big and old very big and not so old

2 The type of school a boarding school a secondary school

3 Timetable 6 lessons; sports every day 6 lessons; 3 P.E. a week

4 Favourite subject English English and History

5 Problems in studying English consonants Pronunciation

6 Punishment Stay away from school A message to parents

7 Attitude to school Fantastic, interesting I like my school

b) Now compare Nick‟s opinion with the situation in your school.

e.g. 1) Nick says that his school is big, my school is rather big too.

2) Nick says that from 2 o‟clock to 4 they usually do some sports, but we

have P.E. only 3 times a week.

Моделированные ситуации общения

Hi there! I am Nick. I go to the best school in Canada. I really like my school. The

building is big and very old. It is boarding school – that means we live here. There

are two dormitories: one for boys and one for girls. Every day we have about 6

lessons. From 2 o‟clock to 4 we usually do some sports. I like football best of all.

Then we have tea and some rest.

My favorite subject is English. It is fantastic. At the lessons we play a lot, sing

songs and even dance sometimes. Our teacher is very good. We can agree or

disagree with him whenever we want to. At the beginning of the lesson we listen to

the tape recorder and answer questions. If we don‟t pronounce English sounds well

we work at them at home. I have some problems with consonants. But all the

exercises are interesting to me. If we do not know what to do, we always ask:

“What do we do now?”, “Shall we do this?”. I always get „excellent‟ for my

English classes. Well, not always – sometimes…

I hate it when somebody makes crib sheets, they are so small that you can‟t read the

letters, so they don‟t help really. If a teacher finds them, he will give you detention.

I myself got detention when I tried skiving off. It was because of one of our sneaks.

She told the teacher about me. So I had to stay away from school for a week. That

was horrible. I had nothing to do at home.

I won‟t skip classes any more … I hope…
