ХОД УРОКА

1. The beginning of the lesson

(Приложение 4. Слайд 1)Учитель: Hello, Everyone. The topic of our lesson is BBFFAA.I want Mary to start our lesson with a wonderful poem by Reba Gibson.

Ученик:

You are there when I need you
You always have my back
You uplift me when I'm sad
You always make me smile
You cry when I cry
You smile when I smile
You laugh when I laugh
You never judge me
You always keep my secrets
You brighten up my day
You always show you love me
You are my sister from another mister
You are awesomely fantastical
Who am I talking about?
You, because you are my BBFFAA

Учитель: Now you see what BBFFAA means. That’s “Bestest Best Friend Forever And Always” and we are going to talk about friendship and close and dear friends. During the lesson you’ll listen to some other poems. Some pupils of your class tried to translate them into Russian. It was a difficult task but they did all their best to do it in lyrics. I’d like you to listen to the translation of the first poem (Приложение 5)

2. Warming-up

(Приложение 4. Слайды 2-3) Учитель: There are a lot of proverbs in different languages. You can see some Russian and English proverbs. Match them. One example for you:
“A friend in need is a friend indeed.” The Russian proverb with the same meaning is: “Друг познается в беде.”

English proverbs are:

Before you make a friend eat a bushel of salt with him.
A friend is not so soon got as lost.
Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver, the other is gold.
A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.
A man is known by his friend.
The only way to have a friend is to be one.
Money can’t buy friendship.
One man – no man.

Russian proverbs are:

Старый друг лучше новых двух.
Друга узнать – вместе пуд соли съесть.
Нет друга, так ищи, а нашел, так береги.
Единственный способ иметь друга – это быть другом.
Друга на деньги не купишь.
Один в поле не воин.
Скажи мне кто твой друг, и я скажу, кто ты.
Друзей-то много, да друга нет.

3. Reading

Wise people of different times have discussed the problems of friendship. (Приложение 4. Слайд 4) In the picture you can see a famous philosopher in ancient Greece. His name was Socrates.

Best friends are angels,

They always stay beside you,
Whenever things go wrong.

I'm glad that god blessed me,
With a good friend such as you.
A person to be there,
A person to get me through.
Never turn away from me,
I can't bear to be apart.
All the pain and suffering,

The one that brightens my day.
The one that cheers me up,
The one that's here to stay.

Emily Mathews

Distance never separates
Two hearts that really care
For memory spans the miles
And in seconds we are there.
We hear the voice
We see the smile
And deep inside we know
That friends remain a part of us
Wherever we may go.

So we can visit any time
No matter when and where
For distance never separates
Two hearts that really care.
