Урок-сказка "Встреча Рождества в Англии" в начальных классах

Разделы: Иностранные языки


Цели урока:

  • знакомство с традициями празднования Рождества в англоязычных странах;
  • создание атмосферы праздника на уроке, обеспечивающей высокую мотивацию в обучении.

Задачи:

Учебные:

  • развитие речевых и языковых компетенций учащихся (монологической и диалогической речи);
  • обобщение пройденного лексико-грамматического материала;
  • формирование навыков аудирования и письменной речи.

Воспитательные:

  • привитие и развитие уважения к культуре и традициям англоязычных государств;
  • формирование чувства уважения, взаимопонимания, поддержки друг друга.

Развивающие:

  • развитие кругозора учащихся и его социокультурной компетенции;
  • развитие навыков лидерства, умения работать в группе;
  • формирование навыков культурного общения с одноклассниками;
  • развитие творческих способностей каждого ученика;
  • формирование творческой активности ученика на уроке;
  • развитие умения анализировать, сопоставлять и обобщать полученную информацию.

Оборудование урока (новогодние и рождественские украшения, наглядные пособия с видами Москвы и Лондона, музыкальное сопровождение), костюм учителя – “Белоснежки” - всё способствует продуктивному общению учителя со своими воспитанниками в ситуации, максимально приближенной к реальной жизни. В “сказочной” атмосфере все дети становятся очень активными участниками урока и с огромным желанием выполняют все предложенные задания.

Класс/группа делится условно на “русских” и “английских” школьников. Дети могут приготовить бейджики (name-badges) с именами Ученики сами начинают урок, поэтому этих детей надо подготовить заранее, так как они “исполняют” роли. Также следует продумать, кому будет отведена роль “корреспондента” или это задание можно предложить в процессе урока (в зависимости от уровня обученности ваших детей).

Урок будет более эффективным, если использовать интерактивную доску при выполнении задания “Письмо Буратино”, “Лестница-чудесница” – тогда у детей появится возможность продемонстрировать навыки письменной речи или можно предложить просмотр мультимедийной презентации с видами Лондона; также можно сделать слайд с заключительной песней (на мотив всемирно известной песни “Happy birthday!”)-дети с удовольствием исполнят её вместе с “Белоснежкой”!

(В конце можно устроить чаепитие и даже пригласить родителей).
