Урок по страноведению "Jubilee glimpses of England"

Цель урока: расширение лингвострановедческих знаний и навыков учащихся по теме «Юбилейные события в Англии».

When these children were in the 9^th form we read some Shakespearian sonnets. And they translated them into Russian, now let’s listen to Shakespearian sonnet in our pupils’ translation.

Глаза ее совсем на солнце не похожи

И алость губ с кораллом не сравнить,

Белее снег, чем цвет ее груди

А волосы как проволока грубы.

Я видел много алых, белых роз

Но их не вижу на ее ланитах.

И в мире много ароматов есть,

Но запах ее слаще и сильней.

Мне речь ее мила,

Хоть тембр музыки приятней.

Когда ступает госпожа моя

Мне ясно: то походка не богини.

И все ж, о небо, ни к чему сравненья-

Любовь моя, ты - редкое явленье.

3.3 Релаксация

She became Elizabeth II at the age of 25 after her father’s death.

- If you look at the photo of this beautiful elegant lady you can say that she is very weak and gentle as all women seem to be. But she is a strong person, very popular and much respected all over the world.

   1. Беседа по теме «Олимпийские игры»»

• Now look at the screen again (Слайд 13). Do you see the date ‘July, 27 – August, 12, 2012’. Who knows what does it mean? What event was on that day? Maybe somebody watched or heard about it on TV?

• It was the date when the Olympic Games were held in London. This was the 3^rd time when London celebrated this important event. (Слайд 20)

• Let’s remember some symbols of the Games. What are they?

• They are the Olympic Flag, the motto, the mascots. (Слайд 21)

• You are quite right. Look at the Olympic Flag and describe it.

- The Olympic flag has a white background with no border. In the centre there are placed five interlocked rings. Each ring represents one of the five continents: blue is for Europe; red is for America; yellow is for Asia; green is for Australia; black is for Africa. (Слайд 22 – изображение олимпийского флага)

1. Проверка лексического материала по теме «Спорт» с переводом на казахский язык

• The Olympic programme includes a lot of sports.

• Will you name the kinds of sports I am going to show you? But your task is not only to name the sports in English but to give their equivalents in Kazakh. (Слайд 25- учащиеся смотрят картинки с видами спорта, называют вид спорта на английском языке и дают его эквивалент на казахском языке )

1. Задание «Собери олимпийскую сборную РК»

• It goes without saying that sportsmen from Kazakhstan also took part in the Olympic Games in London. But I am especially proud of the fact that 9 sportsmen from our oblast took part in the Olympic Games in different kinds of sport: athletics, wrestling, swimming, cycling, boxing. Kazakhstan left London with a total of 13 medals (7 gold, 1 silver, and 5 bronze)

• And now your task is to match the Olympic winners’ photos with their names, sports they took part in and medals they won. (Слайд 42 – учащиеся получают карточки: фотографии олимпийских чемпионов, фамилии, 3 вида медалей, виды спорта и должны соединить их вместе; на экране в это время показан клип на песню «Чемпионы», звучавшую на Лондонской Олимпиаде) – приложение 4 (ответы)

• Now look at the third date of our chart (Слайд 13).

• I will read you some sentences about a well-known person (Слайд 58). Try to guess who I’ll be speaking about. After that you will be able to discover the last date in our chart.

• It is impossible to speak about the English literature without speaking about this author.

• He was the brilliant poet, the marvelous dramatist, the greatest of the great. He was not of an age, but for all time. People called him “The National Bard”, “The Immortal Poet of Nature”.

• To be, or not be, that is the question:

Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer

The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,

Or to take arms against a sea of troubles

And by opposing end them.

• Быть или не быть - таков вопрос;

Что благородней духом - покоряться

Пращам и стрелам яростной судьбы

Иль, ополчасъ на море смут, сразить их

Противоборством?

• You are speaking about William Shakespeare (Слайд 58- фото У.Шекспира).

• Yes, it’s about William Shakespeare, I am sure Shakespearian words “To be or not to be…” are known by everybody. But I think you don’t know why I decided to remember him at our lesson. Of course William Shakespeare is known all over the world, he was a great person, poet, actor, playwright. But the reason we are talking about him is that April, 23, 2012 was the beginning of the International Shakespearian Festival in London. All his 37 plays were performed in 37 different languages to mark the London Olympics.

3.1. Паззл «Найти слова, связанные с Шекспиром»

- Look at the next slide. You can see the puzzle, all words from which are connected with Shakespeare’s life and biography. Your task is to find 10 words. (Слайд 59 – учащиеся выделяют найденные слова, связанные с У.Шекспиром на доске разным цветом)

(Sonnet, Hamlet, comedy, tragedy, Stratford, William, Shakespeare, Othello, Macbeth, Globe)

3.2. Декламация сонетов У.Шекспира

- You see that Shakespeare wrote tragedies, comedies, plays and sonnets. I’d like to speak about his sonnets. They are very popular and loved by people. All of them were translated into different languages. As for me I like them very much, especially in S.Y.Marshak’s translation. Our girls prepared to read one sonnet they liked more in English and in Russian. Listen to them! (учащиеся читают сонет 130 и его русский вариант в переводе С. Маршака)

• When these children were in the 9^th form we read some Shakespearian sonnets. And they translated them into Russian, now let’s listen to Shakespearian sonnet in our pupils’ translation.

Глаза ее совсем на солнце не похожи

И алость губ с кораллом не сравнить,

Белее снег, чем цвет ее груди

А волосы как проволока грубы.

Я видел много алых, белых роз

Но их не вижу на ее ланитах.

И в мире много ароматов есть,

Но запах ее слаще и сильней.

Мне речь ее мила,

Хоть тембр музыки приятней.

Когда ступает госпожа моя

Мне ясно: то походка не богини.

И все ж, о небо, ни к чему сравненья-

Любовь моя, ты - редкое явленье.

3.3 Релаксация

• Shakespeare’s sonnets are very musical. And there are many songs and romances on his words. Many famous singers in different countries sing them in different languages. Today I want you to listen to one of them. (Слайд 61 – прослушивание песни на слова У.Шекспира в исполнении Э.Уильямса )

Приложение 1

«A typical day in the life of the Queen of England»

The Queen begins her day like many other people – with paperwork at her desk. After reading the daily English newspapers, the Queen examines her correspondence: 200-300 letters or more per day! Of course she can’t read them all, so with the help of members of her staff she selects some letters to answer.

The Queen sees, separately, two of her Private Secretaries who bring the official papers and documents for her to read, approve and sign the information from all over the world. All of these papers are sent in the famous “red boxes”. After this it’s time for the audiences: when the Queen receives a number of important people (ambassadors, bishops, judges, etc.) Each meeting lasts 10 to 20 minutes.

Usually the Queen has lunch privately.

In the afternoons the Queen often goes out on public engagements (about 430 per year). If the engagement is outside London, the Queen travels by air using a helicopter or an RAF plane. In these engagements the Queen visits schools, hospitals, factories, military units, art galleries, hostels for the homeless and other organizations.

At the end of the afternoon the Queen may see Government ministers in a meeting of the Privy Council.

The Queen’s working day does not stop at the end of the afternoon. Once a week (usually on Wednesdays), in the early evening she has a meeting with the Prime Minister and they discuss government business and important things that are happening in the country.

At about 7.30 pm the Queen reads a report of the day’s parliamentary actions.

Sometimes the Queen attends a film premiere, a concert performance for a charitable cause, or a reception linked to organizations of which she is a Patron. The Queen also regularly organizes official receptions at Buckingham Palace (usually with other members of the Royal Family).

The Queen has many private interests to complete her working day. For example, she owns and breeds racehorses so she often sees her horses run at famous races like the Derby and the Summer Race Meeting.

Often, one of the last lights on in the Palace at nights is the Queen finishing her “red box” of official papers.

Of course, she has some free time, and some private life, but less than most people. At her leisure time she enjoys horse racing, fishing and walking in the countryside. She also enjoys Scottish country dancing.

The song ”A time for us”(Andy Williams)

A time for us, some day there'll be
When chains are torn by courage born of a love that's free
A time when dreams so long denied can flourish
As we unveil the love we now must hide

A time for us, at last to see
A life worthwhile for you and me

And with our love, through tears and thorns
We will endure as we pass surely through every storm
A time for us, some day there'll be a new world
A world of shining hope for you and me
For you and me

And with our love, through tears and thorns
We will endure as we pass surely through every storm
A time for us, some day there'll be a new world
A world of shining hope for you and me

A world of shining hope for you and me
