So, today at our lesson we are going to speak about traditional symbols (images) of two countries: Great Britain and Russia. You will also make a poster about images of Russia and learn how to present it to your classmates.
На слайде: Today you are going to: - speak about symbols of two countries; - make a poster “Images of Russia”; - learn how to present it.
II. Речевая зарядка.
Teacher:Have you ever been to Great Britain? What do you usually imagine when you think of Great Britain? Примерные варианты ответа: Big Ben, Stonehenge, gardening, double-decker buses, horse riding, Shakespeare, Elisabeth II
Teacher:Today at our lesson you will make a poster “Images of Russia” but before it let’s learn how to present such a project. We will do some tasks which will help you a lot. Раздаю раздаточный материал. Выполняем 3 задания.
III. Работа с текстом.
Task 1A group of British students wrote a report about images of Britain. Read the report and decide which poster illustrates it. When you read the report you can circle the symbols which the students have chosen for the poster. It will help you.
“Images of Britain poster project”
We will send our poster all over the world to schools, colleges and travel agencies. People abroad will see our poster and recognize the traditional images we show of Britain. They will also get a good impression of what British life is like today.
Many people think of Britain and immediately think of London. So we felt it was important to choose one typical image of London. We chose Big Ben because it is part of the Houses of Parliament, which stand for tradition. We decided not to include other tourist images because they don't symbolize the whole country in the same way.
Many people think of a British man in a dark suit carrying an umbrella, which is not very typical these days. We agreed that we should include the umbrella, however, because it says something about the weather, which people talk about all the time.
We all thought we should include an image of food or drink. Tea is a traditional image, but most young people now drink more coffee. We still eat a lot of fish and chips, so we decided on this to represent British food.
There are many types of music in Britain. We chose one musical instrument to give an idea of music in general. We were all determined to include a football because it originally came from Britain.
Finally, we made a decision to put ourselves in the poster because we believe that young people play an important role in British life. We considered that it was really important to show that Britain is a multi-cultural society, which makes it such a wonderful place.
Ответ: The left poster illustrates the report. Why haven’t you chosen the right poster?
Teacher: Pay attention to the organization (layout) of the report. Answer the questions.
How many parts does the report have? (3 parts) What do the students explain in the first part of the report? (They explain why they have decided to make this poster. This paragraph introduces the topic of the report.) What is the second part of the report about? (It is about different images. The paragraph explains why they have been chosen).What is the main idea of the last paragraph? (Britain is a multi-cultural society.)
Teacher: Presenting a report needs a special language. Let’s study the vocabulary which will help you to present your report.
Task 2. Look again at the text. The writers do not repeat the same words over and over again but use different ways of saying very similar things. Match the words from A with the words from B. Work in pairs.
e.g. to symbolize – to stand for
Before we check the task let’s pronounce some difficult words. Listen to me and repeat: symbol, symbolize, image, typical, determined. OK. Now do the task one by one. 1.to choose 2. to symbolize 3. usual 4. to put in 5.we think it’s a good idea 6. to want to do smth 7.symbol a. image b. typical c. to stand for d.to decide on f. we agree g to include
Task 3. Use the new vocabulary to answer the questions.
- Why did the writers decide to include an umbrella/ Big Ben/ fish and chips/ football/ guitar?
- Which images did the writers decide not to include? Why?
Teacher: Now imagine that you have been asked to take part in a contest of poster projects. I’m going to divide you into 3 groups and your task will be to make a poster called “Images of Russia”.
Делю учащихся на три группы (по 3-4 человека). Поделив на группы, спрашиваю: Is every thing OK? Do you have any objections? Maybe you want to work in another group.
Teacher: Before you start to make a poster in groups discuss different images of Russia and choose only 4 symbols. When you talk to each other, speak English and be active. You have 1 minute. Do it, please.
Пока ребята обсуждают символы, я раздаю каждой группе: альбомный лист, карандаши, ластик, фломастеры, клей.
Кладу на отдельный стол иллюстрации символов России: Кремль, Храм Христа Спасителя, Большой театр, Покровский собор и т.д.
Через минуту спрашиваю: Are you ready? Do you have any problems?
Teacher: Now when you have chosen the symbols, draw them on your poster. Please make simple drawings. You will have 10 minutes for this work. Don’t forget to write how your poster is called.
If you have any difficulties here on the table there are some pictures which you can put in your poster if you want. One member from your group may come here, have a look at them and choose a symbol or symbols which you need. You have some glue, so use it to stick a picture on your poster. If you don’t want, it’s not necessary to use these pictures.
Через 9 минут спрашиваю: Is every thing OK? Please, finish your work. If you have any problems raise your hand and ask me for help.
Через 1 минутуговорю:Now when you have made the poster, please, choose one person who will present it. Together decide (Наэкранеотображаетсяпландоклада)
- how to introduce your report
- how to explain the images you have chosen
- how to end your report
I’ll give you a list of phrases and words. Please, use them when you present your poster. (Указываю на список выражений на листе. Раздаю каждой группе свой список).You have 4 minutes.

Пока ученики работают, я хожу от группы к группе и, если необходимо, помогаю им советом.
IV. Презентация групповой работы.
Teacher: Well, your time is over. Are you ready?
Обращаюсь к первой группе.Who will present the poster of your group? You are welcome. Let me help you to attach the poster to the blackboard. (Прикрепляю постер магнитами на доску.)
Обращаюсь к остальным группам. Please listen to the report very attentively. After it you are welcome to ask questions and discuss the poster.
После презентации задаю вопрос: Could you explain why you chose …?
Спрашиваюудругихгрупп: Do you think these images really symbolize Russia?What’s your opinion about the poster?
Благодарю первую группу: Thank you for your report. It was excellent/ great/ good/ well done.Your pictures are very beautiful. Who drew them?Oh, you have a talent! Thank you for giving us clear explanations.
Обращаюсь ко второй группе: Now let’s listen to another group. Whom have you chosen to present the poster?
Слушаем презентацию второго постера.
Обращаюсь к другим группам: Now you are welcome to ask questions and discuss the report.
Благодарю вторую группу.
Обращаюсь к третей группе: Now it’s your turn to present your work. Who will speak on behalf of your group?
После 3го сообщения обращаюсь к другим группам: Now your questions and comments.
Если кто-то в качестве символа выбрал “матрешку”, “балет”, “фигурное катание”, я спрашиваю: I’d like to know why you chose …Is this symbol really Russian?
Do you know that the idea to make such dolls originally came not to Russian people but it was borrowed from another country – Korea? The first matryoshka appeared in Russia only in 1900.
Do you know that Ballet originally came from Italy?Do you know that figure skating originally came from Britain but it is an American skater, Jackson Haines, who is considered to be the "father of modern figure skating"?
Если эти символы не были выбраны, я помещаю их и несколько других на доску и говорю: Look at the pictures which you haven’t chosen. Are they all typically Russian symbols?
Затем рассказываю про историю возникновения матрешки, балета или фигурного катания.
Nowadays we are surrounded by many things borrowed from other cultures. Can you name any of them?
e.g. Coca-Cola , pizza, football, the Internet
Don’t you think that they have become a part of our culture too?So, what conclusion can we make?
Еслинемогутсделатьвыводсами, яговорю:Nowadays we should speak not only about cultures of different countries but about global culture too. It exists in almost every country in the world. We live in a multi-cultural society. Don’t you agree with me?
V. Рефлексия.
