The situation (Let’s imagine).
A group of English pupils are coming to our school. They are your future classmates. You are asked to discuss the plan of their meeting and the way you will acquaint English pupils with your school.
There are two questions on the blackboard.
- What do you need for the meeting?
- What can you tell them about your school?
Think it over for 7 minutes and make up your own plan.
После этого начинается обсуждение, выслушивается план каждого ученика, они рассуждают вслух, дают свое понимание обозначенной проблемы и на основе изложенных версий составляется общий план встречи.
For example:
- We meet English pupils near our school and get acquainted with them.
- The excursion to our school.
- Our class, teachers and timetable.
План обсужден, записан на доске. Класс делится на подгруппы, каждой из подгрупп поручается проработать свой вопрос в ходе подготовки к приему гостей.

После ознакомления с памяткой – инструкцией, каждой группе дается текст с извлечением частичной и полезной информацией по теме: “Primary schools in England”.
“Primary schools in England”
In Great Britain school begins at the age of five. Many boys and girls usually leave school at the age of sixteen.
In England the school year begins in September, but not always on the first day of the month, as school never begins on Monday. The English think that Monday is not a good day to start school. So pupils usually begin their school year on the first Tuesday of September (not always on the 1-st of September as we do).
Classes usually begin at nine. Pupils have a glass of milk or a glass of orange juice at eleven. At half past twelve or at one o’clock they usually have lunch – meat, pudding, juice, an apple or a cake. Their classes are not formal. They often sit on the carpet on the floor and listen to their teacher. They draw or play games. They often look at the animals they have at school – hamsters, rabbits or hares. Sometimes there are birds or fish in their classrooms.
English children have classes five days a week. They have classes on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Classes are usually over at four o’clock and then the pupils go home. They never have classes on Saturday and Sunday. Saturdays and Sundays are their days off.
Schools in England have names, not numbers. They often get the names after the place where they are (Green Hill School, Cedar Grove School) or after some famous or important people (St. Mary School).
At the age of five primary school children go to infant schools or infant classes where they spend two years till they are seven. In infant schools they spend much time outdoors.
They play different games, run and jump. They sing songs, dance and play a lot. Infant pupils learn how to use money in their classroom shop. They look at the pictures in interesting books, draw pictures in pencil and colour them. They learn how to get on with other children.
When children are seven they go to junior schools, where they spend four years till they are eleven. So in England children spend six years in primary school. When pupils are eleven or a little older primary school is over.
Junior schools are real schools. The atmosphere is more formal in junior classes than in infant classes. Pupils sit in rows and follow a regular timetable. Their subjects are: English, Maths, History, Nature Study, Geography, Art, and Music. In junior schools swimming, P.E. and Religion are on the timetable too.
But children spend a lot of time outdoors. They visit different museums and other famous and interesting places. Sometimes their teachers take them to London and other big cities. They walk and play a lot. In some primary schools children wear uniforms but in many primary schools they don’t.
После прочтения текста учащимся предлагается обсудить следующие вопросы.
- When does school begin in Russia and in England?
- At what age do children usually begin school? Do they sometimes begin school at the age of five?
- Are there usually carpets in classrooms in Russian schools? Is there a carpet on the floor of your classroom?
- Do children have classes outdoors?
- What games do you play outdoors?
- What interesting things do you learn in class?
Обсудив эти вопросы, каждая группа начинает распределение ролей. В группе 3 человека и каждый из участников отвечает за один вопрос из общего плана, он начинает работать в своем направлении, для организации приема английских школьников им необходимо:
- составить приветственную речь.
- Организовать проведение экскурсии по школе, показать свой класс.
- Рассказать о своих занятиях, учителях и одноклассниках.
