V. Подведение итогов занятия.

Teacher: Our lesson I would like to finish with the poem “Different Languages” (Cлайд №14)

I met a girl
Who came from another land.
I couldn’t speak
Her language,
But I took her by the hand.
We danced together,
had such fun,
Dancing is a language
You can speak with anyone.
