Discussing: Let’s discuss the text.

What information was new for you?

Let's use the mind map to sum up all the facts.

I remind you what it is.

Mind map- is a special scheme that shows the way of our thoughts. It is a structure of our thinking. It will help us to summarize and analyze all the information. The main idea is placed in the center of the scheme. You can use different pictures and signs to illustrate your ideas. The branches of your mind map will be of different colours.

A mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged around a central key word or idea. Mind maps are used to generate, visualize, structure, and classify ideas, and as an aid in study, organization, problem solving, decision making, and writing.

3. На  стадии рефлексия (Reflection)  осмысление учащимися своей деятельность на уроке  проходит  через использование приемов «Синквейна» и «Шесть шляп».

The next task is to make your own cinquains about  The USA. If you forget what it is, I’ll remind you. It is a kind of poem consisting of 5 lines (this word has a French origin; cinq means five in French). The first line is a general word, the second line consists of two adjectives which describe this country, the third line includes 3 verbs on the topic, the fourth line is the main idea of your “poem” (It must consist of 3-4 words) and the last line is a synonym of the general world.     For example:  «American Holidays"

                                                          *Thanksgiving

                                                          *Happy, thankful

                                                          *Get together, pray, thank

                                                          * It’s celebrated by all Americans.

                                                          *Charity

And now it’s time to start. Presentation.

It’s time to come to the conclusion.   «Six Thinking Hats» (Эдварда де Боно)
