T: Listen to me, children, and then be ready to do a test.

(Рассказывает о путешествии Р. Чанселора, показывает его путь на глобусе.)

“In 1553 Richard Chancellor wanted to go to China across the Arctic Ocean. When he reached Archangel his ship had problems. He left it and went to Moscow to meet Ivan IV. The Russian Tsar was very nice to him. After that Ivan IV and Mary Tudor, the Queen of England, wrote letters to each other. When Mary’s sister Elizabeth was Queen of England she also wrote to the Tsar. The first treaty between England and Russia was in 1734.” [1]

(После аудирования учащиеся получают листы с тестом, затем слушают текст ещё раз и выполняют тест. Приложение.)

5. (На доске – портрет В. Шекспира.)

T: In the XVI century a famous Englishman was born. He was a writer and an actor. He died in 1616. Who was he?

(Учащиеся отгадывают.)

T: This time we’re traveling to the XVII century.

Please, listen to the song and then sing it together. (Звучит песня “London’s Burning!” Затем учащиеся исполняют её вместе.)

T: This song tells us about the Great Fire of London. And here is a part of the text about the Great Fire. Find the things which are wrong, then correct them.

6. T: Well, kids, our last journey is to the XIX century.

(На доске портреты А. Кристи, А. Конан-Дойля, Ч. Чаплина.)

T: Many famous people were born and lived in the XIX century, for example: Agatha Christie, Sir Arthur Conan-Doyle, Charlie Chaplin. Guess, who of them I’m speaking about:
