ХОД УРОКА
1. Организационный момент
– Good morning, boys and girls! Where are going to have a conference “The World of English-speaking countries”. Some of you will play the parts of our guests, others will act as hosts.
2. Фонетическая зарядка упр. 34 стр. 42
Great Britain Italy upside down
New Zealand an island state
Australia cultural mosaic
the USA a “Lucky country”
Canada a real melting pot
– Match the countries and the word combinations corresponding to them
– Read them after me in chorus
– Look through the following passage from the article ”Multiculturalism in
Canada” and find out what the word combination “cultural mosaic” means (уучащихсяна
партах – карточки сотрывкомизстатьи «Multiculturalism in
Canada”).
…The difference from Brighton Beach (USA) is that not only the first generation of
immigrants to Canada preserve Russian traditions, but younger generations also try to
stick together “hanging around”, singing Russians songs solving “eternal” Russian
problems of “what to do?” and “who is to blame?”This supports the symbol of
Canadian multiculturalism known as “cultural mosaic” forming the nation of Canadians
as the quilt with district design of bright patches, representing this or that particular
culture (the symbol of the society in the United States is the” melting Pot” where the
next generations of immigrant families try to assimilate with “native” Americans).
