1. Предъявление темы урока

T: Good morning, students. Sit down, please. Look through the windows. The day is good enough for traveling, isn’t it? So let’s talk about traveling. You know we are going to London next week on the 25^th of December, because we take part in the exchange program so we have a lot of work to do today. We should learn something about good manners decide what way is the best for traveling and, buy our tickets to London.

III. Аудирование. Развитие умения воспринимать речь, предъявляемой в звукозаписи, на слух.

T: Well, I see you enjoy traveling. I offer to refresh your knowledge of good manners before traveling because the British are called well-mannered people. But don’t forget that some good manners can seem strange for us Russian people. There is an English proverb “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” Can you explain it? Can you give the Russian variant? So listen to some sentences and fill the missing words into the gaps. (Card №2)

Don’t make a lot of 1 in public, especially at night when other people are 2 .

Say “please” and “ 3 ” . Queuing is a 4 English tradition. Don’t spit (плевать) in 5 _____ . Most English of customs is 6___________ .

Don’t walk round in 7 forcing (сталкивая) people off the pavement.

Key(slide №2):

1. noise; 2. sleeping; 3. thank you; 4. great; 5. public; 6. queuing; 7. crowds

T: Now read and translate them into Russian because they are very important. (pupils translate)

T: Well done. As you are going to take part in the exchange program you may live in the families of the British. That’s why you should know well how to behave at the table. A person with a great sense of humour once said:” On the continent people have good food. In England people have good table manners”. The poem by C. Graham called “Take your elbows off the table” will help you to have them easier.

Recite it, please.

Take your elbows off the table.

Keep those big feet on the floor.

Take your hat off when you come in.

You’re not outside anymore.

Keep your mouth shut when you are eating.

If you’re hungry, ask for more.

But take your elbows off the table,

And keep those big feet on the floor.

T: In my eyes all these rules are very simple. But it’s not so easy to remember for what different knives and spoons are, in what cases we should use them. Look at the slide №3 to know how to set the table and say about location of each thing.

P1: A meat and fish knife is on the right of the plate. It’s big.

P2: A bread and cheese knife is on the right of the plate near a bread and cheese knife. It’s smaller than a meat and fish knife.

P3: A soup spoon is near the bread and cheese knife.

P4: A meat and fish fork is on the left of the plate.

P5: A spoon and fork for dessert are to the north of the plate.

T: What is the difference between a meat and fish fork and a dessert fork?

P6: A meat and fish fork has four cogs and a fork for dessert has only two cogs.

T: Right you are. Nobody will laugh at you in Britain.

V. Чтение. Развитие умения читать с извлечением нужной информации. Овладение средствами выразительного чтения

Т: The most popular kind of transportation in London is the London Underground. Londoners call it the “tube”. Let’s read interesting information about it. (Card №3)

HOW OLD IS LONDON’S TUBE?

The London Underground, or “tube” as it is often known, was the world’s first city underground railway. It began operating in 1863, when the Metropolitan Railway opened a line between Paddington and Farringdon. Even in those days traffic jam caused by the horse drawn vehicles generated complains and letters to The Times, and as a result construction work began on the underground railway in 1860.

Although Londoners were originally sceptical about the project, calling it “the sewer railway”, the service was an immediate success. Trains were steam operated.

Now the numeral lines of the Tube help yearly millions of British subjects and tourists from all over the world reach their destinations – museums, shopping centers and other attractions of the British capital. At the Tube one can buy a daily or a monthly card to travel within a certain area.

Nearly 1,3 billion passenger journeys were made on London buses in 2008. In that year London buses ran 358 million vehicle kilometers. The familiar double-decker buses are one of the most distinctive sights in London and no visit to London would be complete without a trip on one of them. Shops sell many things representing the famous London double-decker such as tea caddies, teapots, photo frames and other things to attract tourists.

Sewer- канализация;

steam- пар;

caddy- чайница

VI. Говорение. Развитие умений диалогической речи. Овладение диалогом-расспросом

T: To go by the Tube and double-deckers you should get to London. How to do it easier?

S: You should go to a travel agency.

T: Your home task was to use your imagination for making up dialogues in a travel agency. Who wants to present the dialogues? (two couples)

Travel agent: Good afternoon. Can I help you?

Visitor: Yes, please. I’d like to go to Britain this spring. Where can I get some information about holidays in Britain?

Travel agent: Oh, that’s quite easy. I’ll give you some travel leaflets. You’ll find lots of information there.

Visitor: Thank you. Um… I’m fond of boating. I’d like to go boating and visit some boat museum. What can you suggest?

Travel agent: No problem. We have some special tours.

Visitor: Um… One more question, please. How much will it cost?

Travel agent: In this leaflet you’ll find all the prices.

Visitor: Thank you.

Visitor: Hello.

Travel agent: Oh, hello. What can I do for you?

Visitor: Um… I’m going to the UK in August. And I’d like to make the most of my holidays. What would you advise me to visit?

Travel agent: Oh, there are a lot of special tours. They’ll take you to all the important remarkable places. Um… just a minute. I’ll give you some travel brochures. You can choose yourself. There’s a lot to see.

Visitor: Thanks. That’s great. I’m interested in British history and literature. And what’s the weather like in August?

Travel agent: August? Um… It’s usually quite warm.

Visitor: Warm? Oh, good. Um… Can you tell me anything about travel procedures, what travel documents do I need? How much money can I take? Things like that.

Travel agent: All that information you’ll find in the leaflet. Here you are.

Visitor: Great. Thanks. Oh! One more thing…

Travel agent: Yes.

Visitor: Can I take my dog with me?

Travel agent: Your dog?!! Oh, no, taking pets on holidays to the UK is not permitted.

Visitor: Oh. What a pity! Well… Thank you very much for your help and leaflets. See you soon.

Travel agent: Bye.

VII.Зарядка

T: How can you get to London?

S: We can get there by plane, by ship.

Up and down, up and down. ( поднимаем и опускаем руки)

Which is the way to London Town? (шагаем на месте)

Where? Where? (повороты в сторону)

Up in the air. (смотрим вверх)

Close your eyes (закрываем глаза руками)

And you are there. (разводим руки в стороны)

VIII. Говорение. Развитие умений диалогической речи. Овладение полилогом.

T: Fancy that the week has already passed. You are in the plane that is going to fly to London. Ann is a stewardess (S) and the rest students are passengers (P). You are sitting and talking with each other.

S: Ladies and gentlemen! In a few minutes our plane will take off. Our flight from Sheremetyevo to Heathrow will last 3 hours. Fasten the bells, please. Don’t smoke. Thank you.

P1: Heathrow? What’s that? We are flying to London, aren’t we?

S: Don’t worry. It’s an international airport in England. It’s the biggest airport in the UK and the world’s busiest one. Heathrow is about twenty miles east of London. It has twenty-eight million passengers per year.

P1: Oh, thank you for the information.

P2: I’m fond of history and Britain seems to me to be living history.

P3: What a pity I didn’t buy a newspaper in the bookstall before the flight. What a bore.

S: Are you boring? I offer you to kill the time by doing the crossword. In the distinguished squares you can read the name the second major British airport.

(students write on the interactive board)

1. The biggest country in the UK.

2. The fastest and the most expensive kind of transportation.

3. A two-way ticket.

4. This holiday is celebrated on the 31^st of October.

5. This thing is necessary to get to a foreign country.

6. A place where you can buy “package” holiday.

7. A kind of transport that needs a lot of energy.

S: So the name of the second major British airport is …

All the pupils: Gatwick.

S: You’re absolutely right. It’s about thirty miles away to the south of London. Gatwick has about ten million passengers per year.

P4 Do you know that today all British people celebrate their main holiday Christmas?

P5: Yes, of course.

P6: Do you know what song they sing at Christmas?

P7: They sing the song “Jingle Bells”. We sing it every year at Christmas at our English lessons.

P8: I offer you to sing it now. So you’ll be closer to the British.

Everybody : With great pleasure.

(children sing “Jingle Bells”)

Jingle Bells John S. Pierpont

1. Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh,

O’er the fields we go, laughing all the way.

Bells on bobtail ring, making spirit bright,

What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight!

Chorus: Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.

Oh! What fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.

Oh! What fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!

P10: It’s wonderful to discover new places. Travel has always been a part of people’s education. It teaches them about art and culture.

P11: When I look at the photos in travel leaflets I see empty beaches, friendly people and very delicious food. But in real life dreams very rarely come true.

P12: Don’t be so pessimistic. Everything will be great. I’m sure.

P11: Soon we’ll check it.

S: Ladies and gentlemen, in a few minutes our plane is landing at Heathrow airport. Fasten the belts, please. Thank you, goodbye.

IX. Подведение итогов. Рефлексия

T: So our flight and the lesson are over. Our nest lesson is “The tour about London”. At home think of the places of interest you would like to visit and reasons why you’d like to visit them. And read the text at page 241, ex. 6. Be ready to make in international call from England.

T: Children, did you like the lesson? What did you like? And what was unusual for you? Perhaps you knew something new? What was it?

You worked well, everybody tried with all might. That’s why your marks are only good and excellent. (slide №7)
