DEVELOPMENT

THE BEGINNING of the LESSON

Good morning, dear students! How are you today?

Are you ready to start?

That's great!

Let's read the words of wisdom. Do you agree with these words?

What do you think the problem of our discussion is?

Steps to success

INTRODUCTION OF THE LESSON

President Dmitry Medvedev announced 2009 as the year of youth in Russia.

This initiative of the head of our state became the logical continuation of the work to provide for the interests of the upcoming generation.

Youth is a very important period in the life of any person. This is the time when young people discover the world and tries to determine the place in the life.

This is the emblem of the year.

But what do you think is the most important in your life? Let's discuss

FOLLOW UP

Step 1 - LISTENING

Listen to the short texts and try to understand the main idea of them.

1) An educated person is one who knows a lot about many things. He always tries to learn, find out and discover more about the world around him. But the road to learning is not easy. Almost every teen is eager to enter a university and to get higher education.

2) The role of foreign languages is increasing today. Thanks to the knowledge of foreign languages you can read books in the original, talk to foreigners. Nowadays, skilled specialists are needed with profound knowledge of foreign languages like English, German, French or Chinese.

3) Young people have to earn money, because they want to be independent from their parents. Job gives the young people a chance to adjust themselves to the real life. All teenagers want to have a lot of money in order to dress well, to visit foreign countries, to buy books.

4) Communication is one of the most important problems of young people. It is important to find a good, real friend. The proverb says, "A friend in need is a friend indeed." You'd better make friends with gay and honest persons.

5) Another problem of the youth is the problem of love. Young people fall in love when they reach the age of Romeo and Juliet. But for a happy family life two people must not only love, but understand and respect each other.

Say, using the speech pattern:
The main idea of the text is :

What unites all the words in the web?

Step 2 DISCUSSION

What is success? What makes success? What do we need for it? Let's discuss how to make and achieve success.

The fate of empires depends on the education of youth
Aristotle, Greek philosopher

Speak about the importance of being a well-educated person.

To be a well-educated person I must : (study well, read a lot, get profound knowledge, pass my exams, enter the university, be hard-working, speak English well, know and use my computer perfectly)

Step 3

He, who knows no foreign language,
does not know his own one.
(Goethe, the great German poet)

In Russia, the last few years have seen increasing interest in learning foreign languages.

What are the reasons for learning foreign languages?

I want to read books, magazines and newspapers in English.
It is a subject in my curriculum.
It will help me to find a good job.
I want to travel abroad.
I want to study abroad.
I would like to watch films and TV programmes in English.
I want to speak with foreigners.
It will help me with my computer.
I would like to go abroad to work.

Step 4

Job or Money?

What is more important: to earn money or to get an interesting job?

Is money real wealth? If not, what is real wealth?

When the job is prestigious, money is of secondary importance!

What are you going to be?

I'm sure that I'll become a :
I'd like to be a :
I think that I'll be a :
I am afraid I don't know exactly.

I am sorry but I don't choose any trade yet.

True or False. Read and correct false sentences.

Hardly anyone believes that you are our future.

A few people are of the opinion that the whole generation is dying before our eyes.

Our country is the largest, the richest and the best in the world.

Most people think that you don't create anything.

Unfortunately, you do nothing.

The trouble is you smoke, drink alcohol, take drugs.

You don't have a dream.

Frankly speaking, you need nothing.

They say you are none.

It's true, because :
It's false, because :

Step 7 - TEXT

Hard work is a part of the American Dream. To be successful is important in America. Society doesn't like those who have achieved nothing. That's why all young people want to work hard. Without it, it's almost impossible to be successful.

Let' read and translate the text by chain.

Michael Webb's success began with the publication of a scientific work with the title "The Importance of Being Second-Rate". He gave his invaluable (неоценимые) rules for success, which should be memorized and repeated three times a day - morning, noon and night - by all who wish to rise step by step to success. If these ten rules are followed, success is guaranteed by the author.

Webb's Ten Little B's are:

  1. Believe in yourself - you are all right.
  2. Believe in your fellow-man - he's all right.
  3. Be pleasant - a face with a smile wins.
  4. Be reserved - talkers are dangerous.
  5. Be cautious - don't experiment.
  6. Be solvent - save a little every day.
  7. Be a worker - Drones have no money.
  8. Be open-hearted, open-minded, open-handed.
  9. Be respectful - the world was here before you came.
  10. Be American - a loving servant of God.

(Adopted from W. E. Woodward)

- Say which of the ten rules you would like to follow.

I'd like to follow the rule:

Step 8 - NAMES

Personal qualities are important for successful people. Choose one most important personal quality to describe yourself as a successful person. Name the adjective, which begins with the first letter of your name.

Step 9 -LADDER

Success doesn't come to you - you go to it!

Let's make a ladder of success.

Put the words to rank the importance of the following things in your life to achieve success.

The Steps to Success

ROUNDING - OFF

The young generation must be oriented on basic person's riches - health, education, creation of a reliable family.

This Year the main values of a young man will be aspiration to active vital position, creation and welfare of our Fatherland.

Your success depends only on you.

Well done!
