Хід уроку
Teacher (T): – Good afternoon, everybody! Get ready for the lesson.
We’ve learnt the themes “England”, “Scotland”, “Wales”. We’ve learnt a
lot about Great Britain. It’s such an interesting country, isn’t it?
Today we have to revise the material we discussed at the previous
lessons. And it will be an unusual lesson. Let us have a competition. Do
you like this idea? So let’s make two teams and now, of course, we have
to choose the captains.
I. Choosing the captains.
T: Now I’ll say a few words about the country and you have to name it.
Try to guess. He or she, who knows th.e,an-swer – put up your hand
quietly. Is it clear?
The task for Team 1.
This country is famous for its beautiful scenery: valleys, mountains,
rivers. In the country there is the second highest mountain in Britain.
In this country you can follow the narrow rocky paths in the Snowdonia
National Park. What country is it? (Wales)
The task for Team 2.
This country is situated to the North of England. The capital of this
country is known as Athens of the North because it has a great past. In
this city there is a monument to the famous writer Sir Walter Scott.
What country is it? (Scotland)
(Two best pupils from Team 1 and Team 2 become the captains).
So you are the captains and you have to choose the colour for your team.
Take out any card you want.
O’K. Your colour will be red and your colour will be green. And
according to this you will get green or red pens.
II. Test: What do we know about Great Britain?
T: You already know a lot about Great Britain and its people, but some
things are easily forgotten. Let us brush up your knowledge of this
country. So take these sheets of paper and your pens. You have to write
down the number of the question and the right letter. Make the right
choice: a, b, c, or d. Listen to me carefully. (See Appendix 1).
And now give your sheets of paper to the other team and receive their
sheets of paper. Check up the answers and sum up the mistakes. Now look
at the keys on the blackboard and compare the answers. So, the points
are: Team 1 — , Team 2 — .
III. Quiz.
Now we proceed to the next task. You have prepared some questions about
Great Britain. So ask each other questions one by one. Let’s begin with
Team. . . You’ll get 1 point
for each right answer. (See Appendix 2).
IV. The Grammar task.
1) The next task will be connected with grammar. You’ve learnt the
phrasal verb to look. So let us check up your knowledge. We’ll give you
a number of separate words with this verb. You must choose the right
words and make two correct sentences out of them. Then read and
translate the sentences.
For example:
/looks up//the new words//she//his glasses//he//is looking for/
/in the dictionary//everywhere/
1. She looks up the new words in the dictionary.
2. He is looking for his glasses everywhere.
2) And what do you know about the Complex Object? Could you write the
sentences with the Complex Object in the Active and Passive Voice? We’ll
give you the cards with the task. You have to complete the table. So,
let us start. You have three (four) minutes. Now let us check up this
grammar exercise. You’ll get 1 point for each right sentence. (See
Appendix 3).
V. The captains’ contest.
Now it is our captains’ turn. What can you tell us about Scotland and
Wales? Choose any card you want and show it to everybody. So the captain
of Team 1 will tell us about Scotland and the captain of Team 2 has to
ask him 2 questions about this country, O’K?
And now the captain of Team 2 will tell us about Wales. You’ll get one
point for your pronunciation, one more point-for your questions, and one
more point – for your answers. For example, the questions for the
captain of Team 1 are:
1. What is one of the best known monuments in Edinburgh?
2. What is the Edinburgh military tattoo?
And the questions for the captain of Team 2 are:
1. Who is the patron saint of Wales?
2. What is the national game of Wales?
VI. The symbols of the countries.
We need two artists from each team for the next contest. Do you know the
symbols of England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland? Take these sheets of
paper and use many-coloured pens. You must draw:
for Team 1-the symbols of England and Wales;
for Team 2-the symbols of Scotland and Ireland.
You have to write their names too.
Show us your pictures, please, and read the names of these symbols. You
get 1 point for each symbol.
The symbol of England is a rose. The symbol of Ireland is a shamrock.
The symbol of Wales is a daffodil. The symbol of Scotland is a thistle.
VII. The crossword puzzle.
Look at the blackboard, please. You can see the crossword there with the
definitions of each word. Can you complete the puzzle? You’ll get 1
point for each right answer. The definitions:
1) the industrial centre of Scotland (Glasgow)
2) the oldest part of Edinburgh (Castle)
3) the most picturesque part of the Royal Mile (Cannongate)
4) the symbol of Scotland (thistle)
5) the capital of Scotland (Edinburgh)

2) The dialogue “A Trip to Wales” (See Appendix 4).
Thank you very much! You are real actors! Good for you. Each team has 1

IX. Descriptions of the words.
Now you’ll get 4 cards with the words for each team. You have to
describe them and then to read these descriptions to the other team. You
have to guess these words. You’ll get 1 point for each right answer.
The words:
1) a waterfall, a deer, a path, a valley 2) a meadow, a cow, a forest, a
