ХОД УРОКА
Начало урока:
Звучит фрагмент из песни «Улыбка» из мультфильма «Крошка енот». Музыка В Шаинского, Слова М. Пляцковского
От улыбки хмурый день светлей,
От улыбки в небе радуга проснется,
Поделись улыбкою своей,
И она к тебе не раз еще вернется.
И тогда, наверняка, вдруг запляшут облака,
И кузнечик запиликает на скрипке,
С голубого ручейка начинается река,
Ну а дружба, начинается с улыбки.
С голубого ручейка начинается река,
Ну а дружба начинается с улыбки.

World Smiley Day
Bet you didn’t know there’s a World Smiley Day!! Well, now you know. There is a
special day of the year at the beginning of October for us all to celebrate the little
yellow smiley face we all know and love. It is just a circle with two dots in the middle,
to represent eyes, and a half circle for the mouth. The smiley is everywhere today. How
many times do you use a smiley in your text messages? How often do you quickly scribble a
smiley on a memo or draw one with your finger on a bathroom mirror? Even tiny children can
and do this. The happy little face is now one of the most recognizable images on the
planet. And what a great image it is. If we could all follow this simple little symbol,
what a wonderful world this would be.
Bet you also didn’t know that the smiley was the design of an American artist. His name
is Harvey Ballwell, but he died in 2001. He created the smiley face in 1963. In 1971, two
businessmen used it in a campaign to sell novelty goods. They produced badges, coffee
mugs, t-shirts and bumper stickers and suddenly smiley was worldwide. The Smiley name and
logo is registered in over 100 countries to produce many different goods and services.
Harvey Ballwell wanted to use his creation for a good cause. He decided that the first
Friday in October each year would be World Smiley Day. The theme for this day is: "Do
an act of kindness; help one person smile." It’s a shame this day isn’t every day
of the year.
