Did you watch TV or surf the Internet yesterday to find out what had happened in Russia and abroad?

2)You are quite right, but today we are going to speak about newspapers, which are the oldest source of information.

3)To make it easier for you to speak on the topic, we’ll learn a few new words. (Слайд 3).

First you are to match the English words and their Russian equivalents. Then you should explain the meaning of these words in English.

1. Teacher’s presentation of a story about the British newspapers.

(Просмотр презентации, сопровождаемый рассказом учителя о видах газет в Великобритании). (слайды 4-11)

In the UK they have two main kinds of newspapers: quality papers or broadsheets and popular papers or tabloids.

Tabloids report news in a very condensed form. They write about celebrities, the British Royal Family, sports, crime stories and scandals.

Quality papers give their readers long, detailed reports on the latest news and focus on more serious things: politics, economy, government, international events, business, culture.

Учащиеся слушают рассказ учителя и делают пометки.

1. IV. Answering the questions.

(Ответы на вопросы по презентации):

I hope you’ve listened to me attentively and can answer some of my questions.

-        What do quality newspapers focus on?

-        What do tabloids write about?

-        What quality and popular newspapers in Britain do you know?

-        Which of the facts refer to tabloids and which to broadsheets? (слайд 13)

-        What newspapers in Russia can you describe as quality papers and popular papers?

1. V. Work in groups. Speaking: making up a story.

(Работа в группах. Составление рассказа по заголовку).

Now, I’d like you to use your imagination and creativity.

Look at some newspaper headlines and try to make up a story to which these headlines can be titles. (слайд 14)

Thank you so much. Your stories were worth listening to. You are imaginative and creative. Well done!

Учащиеся разбиваются на группы по 3 человека (всего 4 группы). Разбить на группы можно, например, предложив учащимся вытащить бумажки разных цветов. Те, кто выбрал одинаковый цвет, попадают в одну группу.

Примерный ответ:

1)Hurricane Katrina fell upon the southern states of the USA yesterday. A lot of people were injured and some even got into hospitals. Many countries, such as the UK, Germany, Russia, China sent help to the territories affected by the hurricane. Schools are closed down and pupils are requested to stay at home.

2)Sensational Science.

Soon people will be able to have their personal information implanted in their hand. They won’t have to carry paper documents with them but just put the hand on the scanner which will read the necessary information. Etc

1. VI. Reading and speaking.

(Чтение газетной статьи и моно-логические высказывания на основе фабулы текста).

Now you are going to read some newspaper articles, but we’ll do it with the help of the Internet. Will you, please, get to www.masslitnetwork.org and find “Easy-to-read news articles”. Find the articles “Stress – Signs, Symptoms and How to Manage Stress” and “Earthquakes”, read one of them and say what interesting facts you’ve found out. You’ve got 5 minutes at your disposal.

Учащимся предлагается зайти на сайт www.masslitnetwork.org и прочитать на выбор любую из 2-х статей из раздела “Easy-to-read news articles” “Stress – Signs, Symptoms and How to Manage Stress” или “Earthquakes” («Стресс …» или «Землетрясения»)

После прочтения учащиеся рассказывают, какие интересные факты они узнали. (Так как статья “Earthquakes” достаточно большая, можно предложить учащимся прочитать только часть ее или те разделы, которые интересны учащимся. Время ограничено – 5 мин.)

1. VII. Pupils’ Interview.

(Интервью учащихся).

Friends, did you like the articles you read? Why?

Now I’d like you to answer more questions about articles but this time you’ll play the role of journalists. Each of you will get a question which you’ll have to ask the others. The more pupils you interview the better.

(Каждому учащемуся дается листок с косвенным вопросом. Ребята должны построить прямой вопрос и задать его как можно большему количеству одноклассников. Учащиеся свободно передвигаются по классу и задают друг другу вопрос, написанный на листочке. Время ограничено – 2 минуты. Для удобства и для экономии времени каждому ребенку выдается еще один листок с именами учащихся. (Приложение2) Напротив имени они пишут ответ, который дал опрашиваемый. Таким образом каждый ребенок и задает, и отвечает на вопросы. Количество вопросов должно равняться количеству учащихся в группе. Для того, чтобы данное задание было выполнено четко, дети должны быть знакомы с подобным видом деятельности. Через 2 минуты ребята должны отчитаться о том, что они узнали.)

1. VIII. Listening to the news and speaking.

Аудирование – прослушивание новостей.

As far as I can understand you are not very keen on reading newspapers. You prefer learning what’s going on using other sources of information. Now I’d like you to listen to the radio and say what is going on. So, will you, please, go on to my personal site www.teacher-english.ru and find the BBC radio on-line news. Listen to it and say what you’ve found out.

It wasn’t an easy task to listen to native speakers, but you coped with it quite well. What made it difficult for you to understand the speakers?

The more you listen the better you understand.

Учащиеся переходят на персональный сайт учителя и слушают новости в режиме on-line. Затем оникраткопересказываютновости.
