Ход мероприятия

  • Hello, my dear girls and boys! We are glad to greet you at our auction! All children like to play. That’s why we shall play the game “Auction” today.
  • There are two teams in our classroom and we have three members of our jury today. The first team is called …, and its captain is … . The second team is called … , and its captain is … . The members of our jury are: … .
  • Do you know how to play “Auction”? Listen to me, please.

Учитель объясняет правила игры [1].

Игра может проводиться индивидуально или между двумя командами. Вопросы игры поделены на тематические группы (по подтемам, которые были изучены). Выбор темы для ответа определяется при помощи кубика, на гранях которого даны номера, соответствующие названиям тем:

  1. Cats idioms.
  2. Monkeys idioms.
  3. Fish idioms.
  4. Pigs idioms.
  5. Birds idioms.
  6. Bee idioms.

Каждая команда (участник) перед игрой получает капитал 100 очков (“фунтов”). Участники торгуются за право отвечать на вопрос по выпавшей теме. Торги происходят в форме аукциона. Выигравшая команда выбирает вопрос по данной теме и после 30 секундного обсуждения отвечает на вопрос. Если ответ неверный, команда-соперник (участник) может ответить на вопрос. После каждого тура жюри подводит промежуточные итоги, а после последнего тура объявляется команда (участник)- победитель и проводится награждение. Выигрывает команда (участник), потратившая меньше денег и заработавшая больше очков. Учитель исполняет роль ведущего. Для оценивания ответов целесообразно выбрать жюри.

  • Now listen to the rules of our auction. It consists of stages, each of them includes 3 questions. These questions deal with the idioms we learned from the video lessons.
  • Let’s choose the 1st theme. This die will help us to do it.

Ведущий бросает кубик и читает тему.

  • Oh, it’s …. . Do you like it? You do! So, if you have a question on this topic, you have to buy it. So the 1st lot is “…” and the starting price is 10 pounds. Who wants to buy it for 10 pounds? One, two, three – it is sold. You’ve bought the question and you’ve bought the right to answer it. But if your answer is wrong, the other team could give their version. Now, please, captain, come to me and choose one of these cards. So, your question is … it costs …  points. You have 30 seconds to discuss it.

Pause

  • What is your answer?

  • …The final score is … Let’s congratulate the winners.
