Good morning, guys! I’m glad to see you! I hope everybody is ready to work.

We have already learnt a lot of information about famous people. Look at the screen. Can you tell me what we are going to speak about at our lesson? (слайд 1)

You are right. Our main topic for discussion will be  the famous people depicted on the English banknotes. Do you want to know what these people are famous for? Would you like to know it?

Let’s divide into some groups.

Who is interested in Biology?

Who is interested in Economics? Who is interested in History? Who is interested in banks?

Look! We can see Queen Elizabeth 2,  Charles Darwin, Elizabeth Fry, Adam Smith and Sir John Houblon on the screen (слайд 2). Each of the groups has to make some search to find out some facts about one of these people. And then you must complete a table about a person and inform the whole class how these men made their names. One of the men depicted on the English banknote is Sir Edward Elgar, the British composer. You will be working to his music. You have only 15 minutes. Good luck!

Группы получают перечень сайтов, таблицы, которые они должны заполнить
