- Good morning, boys and girls! How are you?

- Imagine you have a chance to visit any country you want. Look at the map of the world and choose a country. So, come to the board, tick any country on the map and say why you would like to visit this or that country.
- Thank you, pupils. As for me I would visit Canada because I have a pen-friend in Canada and she invites me to come. Besides Canada has an interesting history. So, what do you think what theme of our lesson is?
- You are right. Today we`ll continue to speak about Canada. And the theme is “Interesting facts about Canada"

- Pupils, I`m pleased with your work today. I give you the following marks:
- Thank you for the lesson. Goodbye
- Good morning! We are fine, thanks. And you?
- P1: I`d like to visit the USA because it`s the home of Hollywood and Disneyland
- P2: As for me I`d like to visit Great Britain because it`s the country of the English language. I like English, I like England with its customs and traditions.
- P3: But I prefer Kazakhstan. It`s my motherland. It`s the most important and beautiful country in the world. (and etc.)
- P1: I think the theme of our lesson is “Canada”
-P1: Canada is huge. It`s the second largest country in the world. It`s very rich in natural resources and people. Canada is full of contrasts with one of the largest territories in the world and very small population, igloos and skyscrapers. Canada is multicultural. Since it welcomes immigration, more and more people come to live here every year.
-P2: The population of Canada is about 29 million people. The aboriginal people or First Nations had lived there for thousands of years before the Europeans came. People of different nationalities live in Canada. There are 2 official languages: English and French.
- Р3: They produce oil, gas. Timber, gold, nickel, aluminum, lead and 15 % of the world`s diamonds.
- Р4: Yes, I`d like to. A lot of the names of the cities and lakes came from the language of the aboriginal people. Eg. Canada comes from the Iroquoian word Kanata which means “villages”. The name of the lake Ontario means “beautiful lake”. Two other great lakes were called Erie and Huron after the tribes used to live in that area. The capital was called Ottawa after the tribe of Odaawaa. In 1787 the British founded the city of Toronto the name of which means “place where trees stand in the water”
- Р5: Can I? As for political system I must say that Canada is both a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy. Formally, the head of the country is the Queen or King of Great Britain
They do test. Then check up the partner’s test and give the mark
They thing a song “Me and my broken heart”
