• Did you like our lesson? Why?

• How did you work in groups?

• What new did you learn today?

• When do we use Present Simple?

• What was more difficult: to find

• And what was the connection between the monuments?

6. Notes for the teacher: while introducing the theme teacher should explain children that the structure “famous for” means. And if the pupils don’t know what the country is famous for help them telling the names of the monuments and countries.

For example:

The USA famous for The Statue of Liberty, Great Britain is famous for Big Ben, Tower, or Buckingham Palace, Australia is famous for kangaroo and Sydney Opera House, Italy is famous for Learning Tower of Pisa etc.

Each group has a set of pictures of world famous monuments and of course it’s necessary to include the monument of our republic. For instance:

1. set: Big Ben: The Great Wall of China: Taj Mahal: Aksaray:

2. set: Shir- Dor Medresse: Pyramids of Giza: Sydney Opera House: Eiffel Tower

3. set: The Statue of Liberty: Stonehenge: Leaning Tower of Pisa: Djuma Mosque:

4. set: Coliseum: St. Basil’s Cathedral: Pantheon: Minaret Kalyan

If it’s difficult for pupils to name their works or to explain the connections between the monuments, the teacher should give samples of titles and explain the connection. For example, Miracles of the world or Culture heritage of the world, etc. And the connection between the monuments can be explained as all of them are the world’s heritage and each of them is the symbol of the country.

If children don’t know where the monument from the teacher should help them to find out what country it’s from or ask the whole class

• Children, do you know what country is famous for.

London (England) is famous for Big Ben:

China is famous for its Great Wall:
