ХОД УРОКА:

1 Вступительное  слово учителя:

   Dear students!  To the west of England lies a small, almost secret country called Wales. It is a land of green and grey: green fields, valleys and hills; grey mountains and sky, grey mining villages and grey stone castles. We have read about the history, geographical position, about the surface of this country, etc. But  there is much more interesting about this part of  Great Britain. Your task was to find some  information  about Cardiff – the capital of Wales, about  culture, St.David – the patron of Wales, National Parks, national festivals and what’s not. Your task wasn’t easy: you had to prepare a project:  a slide –show and a story on your topic.

    Listen, some of your friends are meeting at a café  and  they are speaking about Wales. Let’s have a look!

 (8 учащихся  беседуют в « Кафе» - один из проектов)

2  P1:   Hi,  Helen, haven't seen you   for a long time! What have you been doing? Where have

             you been hiding?

 P2:   I've been working on my talk about Wales for the last week and spent many hours in the library.

 P3:   Wales? What can be interesting about that part of Britain? No big cities, no picturesque scenery, no interesting facts on the history of the country.

  P2:  Aren't there? You can't imagine, Ann, how wrong you are here. The book I'm reading says: "Though visitors don't need passports to cross the border from England into Wales, they soon realize that they are entering a country with its own geography, culture, traditions and language."

   P4:   What do you mean? Don't the Welsh speak English?

  P2:   They do. But the Welsh language is spoken widely, especially in the north of the country and it is still the first language for many people. By the way English is taught side by side with Welsh in schools.

   P5:   Is Welsh different from English?

   P2:  Very much so. Welsh is one of the Celtic languages, like Scottish and Irish Gaelic. Even if your English is fluent you won't be able to understand Welsh.

   P6:  Interesting. And what about the cities? I hear that Wales is agricultural; there are few cities there, rather small and unimportant.

   P7:  Let's not argue, but look up in the book I'm reading. I know at least one big city in Wales. It's Cardiff, its capital and the main port.

   P1: (looking through the book) You are right. It says: "Cardiff is an industrial city, which also has a castle, a cathedral, a university. There are other big towns in Wales too, Swansea and Newport among them." OK. But what about the scenery, the history, the culture?

   P2:  The west coast, mid Wales and North Wales are wild and beautiful. Wales has high

           mountains, including Mount Snowdon, the second highest mountain in Britain.

   P3:  I have always thought that Wales is a land of green fields, forests and farms.

   P4: And you have been right. But it is also a land of mountains and valleys, streams and

         waterfalls. In North Wales you can follow mountain paths for miles and miles.

   P6:  Tell me a few words about Mount Snowdon.

   P7:   Got interested? OK. In summer, when the sun is shining, Snowdon looks very peaceful

          and beautiful. A little train runs to the top and the walk is not at all hard. But in winter

          the mountains can become very dangerous.

    P5: But do climbers go there?

    P7: They do, but every year climbers get lost in bad weather or fall and injure themselves.

           When this happens, the Mountain Rescue Service has to go out to look for the

          climbers.

   P5:  I see. And what about Welsh traditions and   the history of the country?

   P4:   Sorry, girls. I've got to run. Here are my notes. I made them during the lecture by Mr

          Roger Davis, a visiting professor from Wales. If you're really interested you can look

          through my notes. They are all on Welsh traditions and culture. Though they are very brief

          you can find them useful.

3  Учитель:

   Well, thanks a lot!  You have  mentioned some interesting facts about Wales. Now it’s high time to listen to your projects.

4  Учащиеся в группах по 2-3 человека рассказывают про Уэльс, сопровождая свой рассказ электронными презентациями.

Гр.1 :  The History and the Language of Wales

   The story of the Welsh people is one of determined resistance to invaders – the Romans, Saxons, Vikings and finally the English. After the fall of the Roman Empire in 410 AD, the barbarian Anglo-Saxons invaded Britain. Legendary kings and princes, like King Arthur, won important victories against the Saxons, but gradually these original ‘Britons’ were pushed west, into the hills and mountains of Wales. Welsh princes fought hard against the English, but Wales was finally conquered. In 1301 Edward I gave his son the title of Prince of Wales and in 1536 Wales was united with England.

   Despite the conquest, Wales has maintained its unique culture and strong national identity, particularly through its language. Welsh, a Celtic language, very different from English, is one of the oldest languages in Europe. However, in the nineteenth century and first half of the twentieth century, the Welsh language declined. The British government made English the official language and English was the only language allowed in schools. The number of Welsh speakers went down from 80% to under 20% of the population. Since the 1960s, though, there has been a revival of the Welsh language. Welsh is also an official language, it is taught in schools and there is a Welsh  language TV channel.

Гр.2 :  National Musical Instruments of Wales

   Wales has  unbroken  musical traditions. Folk musicians play the fiddle,  the harp, the crwth, the pibgorn, the whistle and the flute.

   The fiddle.  Wales has a long tradition of fiddle playing and its music was popular with the great Romany families of Wales. The players wrote down their tunes, that’s why the repertoire has been preserved. Many manuscripts from 18th and 19th centuries contain tunes which appear very similar in style to contemporary classical or popular music.

   ( Звучит мелодия, исполняемая на национальной скрипке)

   The harp. The harp was used as a dance instrument and for playing tunes and airs. The tradition owes its survival to the gypsy families (цыгане) of Wales who kept harp playing alive.

   In Wales the triple harp was popular, an instrument with three rows of strings as opposed to the conventional harp which has one row.

  It has been the tradition in Wales to play the harp on the left shoulder with the right hand playing the lower strings and the left playing the higher ones. This style of playing is possibly unique to Wales.

  (Звучит мелодия на   валлийской арфе)

  The whistle and flute.

The penny whistle or tin whistle has been a popular instrument with players throughout the world owing to its low cost, ready availability and ease of construction.

The penny whistle or tin whistle has been a popular instrument with players through out the world owing to its low cost, ready availability and ease of construction.

  The oldest whistle found in Wales is believed to be 900 years old and was found at Chirk castle. It appears to have been made from the bone of an animal. In the 19th century it was used to accompany the dancing when no harp was available.

  A close relation of the whistle is the flute. Until the late 1800s most flutes were made out of wood, although most are now made from metal. It was usually played with other instruments such as the harp and fiddle.

   (Звучит мелодия на деревянной флейте и свистульке)

   The pibgorn.

The pibgorn is a simple reed instrument once popular with shepherds and cattle drovers.

The pibgorn is a simple reed (язычковый муз. инструмент) instrument once popular with shepherds and cattle drovers.

  It is made up of a wooden pipe and the horns of a bull. One horn is used as a mouthpiece and another to form a bell end which helps amplify the sound.

  The pibgorn consists of six holes for the fingers and a thumb hole at the back, similar to a recorder, giving a range of 8 notes.

  It was used for playing dance music and passing the time on the cattle droves. Pibgorns are rare instruments, although they can be made to order by specialist instrument makers.

   (Звучит мелодия на пастушьем рожке (волынке).)

    The crwth.  One of the oldest of traditional Welsh instruments.

    The crwth is a form of stringed lyre which uses a bow to play the strings. There is archaeological evidence to suggest that similar instruments were in use 5,000 years ago in ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt.

     The range of notes is limited, with a range of just a single octave, and all the strings are played at the same time. The sound created has a droning quality, which can be strange to the unfamiliar ear.

    There are a number of crwth players in Wales, including Cas Meurig, who continues to develop the crwth repertoire, and Robert Evans, who with vocalist Mary-Anne Roberts, recreates ‘cerdd dafod’, literally ‘dance of the tongue’.

One of the oldest of traditional Welsh instruments.
