SCHOOL DAYS

The happiest days of your whole life
(So all the grown-ups say),
But I would never go to school
If I could have my way.
My pencil point is broken,
My pen’s run out of ink
My head’s just filled with sawdust
And with sawdust you cant think.
The happiest days of your whole life
(So all the grown-ups say),
But I would never go to school
If I could have my way.

Susan Whitworth

Сообщения учащихся с опорой на таблицу.

2. Практика в аудировании

Teacher: All mentioned countries have private schools. Why are private schools in Great Britain called public schools? Some students have found the answer to the question. The sources of information are different. Listen to them and decide who is right.

Сообщения двух учащихся:

1. Many years ago poor people couldn’t get education because it was very expensive. There were some organizations that gathered money for the poor. This money was used to set schools for children of people in need. So these schools were called public. Later these schools become rich with public money and become private schools. But English people are conservative. They used to call these expensive private schools public schools.

2. Historically, British education is famous has derived much of prestige from for the excellence of its private schools, called “public” schools because they were originally established for the children of the middle class, such as Eton College, Harrow School, and Rugby School. The students of the private schools came mostly from the middle, aristocratic, and wealthy classes, although some schools made the education of poorer children. A free system of voluntary schools developed during the 19^th century, especially in England and Wales, to extend educational opportunities to the lower classes. After 1833 the voluntary schools, founded by charitable and religious organizations, received some financial support from parliamentary grants. Public schools become very rich and not for poor students.

Teacher: To answer who is right we will read the original text from the English magazine “Speak out” (Приложение №2).

Учащиеся читают текст и высказывают свои мнения, доказывая их информацией из прочитанного текста.

Teacher: So we have done the 2^nd task of our lesson. Let’s learn more about English private schools. Listen to the story about Hampton private school and be ready to complete the sentences.
