Let’s start. Today we are going to work together. (Слайд №2)

The topic of our lesson is “Being independent”. We should understand how to be independent in our life, we should be ready to decide different problems and suggest different independent solutions. At the end of our lesson you should think of your own advice for people who want to be independent.

2. Вхождение в тему урока. Значение понятий.

Please, pay attention to the red color of our writing. It is also connected with the topic of our lesson.

- What means the red color? (Ученики высказывают свои предположения.) (Слайд №3)

Wikipedia explains: “Red means the power, the will to win, leadership. Red is the color of strong energy. Red gives self-confidence, the willingness to take action…”.

In brief description of test Luscher (scientist) red color expresses “the life force, striving for success, greedy desires of all life's gifts. It is the will to win, the desire to sport…. The choice of the red in the first place means the desire for fullness of life, leadership, creativity, strong activities.”

According to the topic of the lesson these qualities are necessary for the independent person.

- Being independent-what does it mean?

- Can you name some relative words?

- What does it mean? Independence - ? Independent – ? (Слайд № 4, 5, 6)

Some dictionaries explain these words in such way:

  • Independence – freedom from influence, freedom from control.
  • Independent – a person who does not have to depend on others, not depending on the help, advice or opinions of others.

3. Раскрытие темы урока.

А. Независимость – это умение отличаться от других. Независимость во мнении.

We live in society and we have to follow some rules of this society. (Слайд №7)

We all eat the same food, wear the same clothes and watch the same films; we are all in danger of becoming the same as everyone and in danger of depending on each other.

- In this case what should we do for our independence?

- Do you want to differ from others? What makes people different?

If you want to be independent, you should differ from others.

- But how? Many people believe this quality is the main thing in personality, especially in teens.

- In what matters can people differ? (Планируемые ответы учеников)

  • appearance
  • opinions
  • tastes
  • behavior and manners
  • views on life
  • preferences in music
  • fashion and clothes
  • relationship with friends
  • family relationships
  • relationships in school
  • attitude to money
  • dreams and plans for the future

(Слайд №8)

In all matters you express your own opinion, in such way you express your independence.

- What rules should you follow to express your own opinion? (Учитель выслушивает идеи учеников, затем делает обобщение)

Be ready to tell everybody your own opinion and explain it. Think different.

Today we are going to discuss only some options concerning independence. They are independence at home, independence in relationships with friends, independence of opinion, independence in choice.

В. Независимость в семье. (Слайд №9)

Let us speak of relationships in family.

- Have you ever heard of the generation gap, inevitable gap between parents and children? - What does “gap” mean?

- Do you know the causes of the generation gap? (Ученики дают возможные объяснения, учитель обобщает их ответы) (Слайд №10)

All teens consider themselves adult and independent people. They think they are ready to decide all problems without parents. It is not always true. Children want to be independent in family and parents want their children to obey and respect them.

- But how to keep independence in family and to be independent from parents? (Ученики дают предполагаемые решения проблемы, учитель обобщает их ответы)

(Слайд №11)

So, how to be independent in your family? It is very simple. Children should respect and love your parents.

С. Независимость в отношениях с друзьями. (Слайд №12)

There is a problem, which is closely connected with the previous topic. It is the relationships with friends.

- How to be independent in the relationships with friends?

D. Независимость в выборе. (Слайд №18, 19)

Let us discuss the matter of being independent in your choice. It’s very difficult in our life to decide something. There are many choices. One of them is to find yourself in job. Let us speak about choosing a profession. As you remember your home task was to say in brief about main aspects of your future profession, get ready to answer the questions about it and decide what qualities you should have to be successful in this profession. (Приложение 1)

(Несколько учеников выступают с аргументацией своего выбора профессии)

(Слайд №20-23)

My ambitions. (Слайд №20)

  • My motto is “Don’t give up, take this step, it doesn’t matter what they said.”
  • I’m ready to live my life with every difficulty I‘ll be given, I know I’ll overcome it. I’m ambitious.
  • I have chosen my future job: I would like to be a lawyer and work in Interpol.
  • I have skills need for this job: dedication, teamwork skills, strength of will.

My future job. (Слайд №21)

I'd like to become a programmer, because I think that this job should be interesting and not so hard for me. I like Mathematic and Informatics. Work with computer pleasures me. This job does not involve hard physical actions. I'd like to help people with their problems with computer programs.

My choice. (Слайд №22)

I have chosen my future job. I want to be an economist. I think it is very interesting to work with numbers and to solve mathematic tasks. When I have solved my tasks I feel satisfaction.

Being an economist is a very good chance to travel all over the world. I can speak people from different countries. I can improve my knowledge of foreign language.

Conclusion. (Слайд №23)

Finally, choosing the profession is the most important step in every person’s life. You have to be sober-minded to make a good decision. I have made it. And you?

If you are independent, you are ready to make choice.

If you are independent, you can suggest your own decision.

4. Заключение. Выводы. Рефлексия. (Слайд №24, 25)

Everyone has ambitions and wishes but sometimes we have no possibilities to make true our wishes. There is а great difference between our ambitions and real life. That is why you should remember it when you make choice, express your own opinion and communicate with your friends. Respect yourself and respect other people. And, of course, be independent.

- Are you ready to give advice – is it important to be independent? Why?

- What should we do for that? (Ученики делают свои выводы, учитель подводит их к главному выводу)

- Do you want to be independent?

- Follow this advice: be independent!

At home you should make up your own list of advice how to be independent and you’re your explanation.

Now to find out the positive results of our lesson you will be given the next task – draw in a schematic form your understanding the concept of being independent. (Ученики получают листы с надписями “being independent” в различной форме и конфигурации при помощи Microsoft Word, затем схематично пытаются изобразить это понятие, опосредованно идет процесс рефлексии). Then you should explain what you have drawn.

Thank you for your work.
