Ход урока

  1. Организационный момент

Приветствие. Фонетическая зарядка

T: Good morning! Take your seats, please. How are feeling? I am very glad to see you. Hope everybody is alright.

Ss: I’m fine/ OK/ Thanks, and you?/

OR: We are well, thank you. And what about you? etc.

T: Thanks a lot. I’m alright and I would like you to read the tongue twister written on the board to improve your pronunciation. Could you, please, translate it. Can you tell me what sounds we are practicing?

You know New York.
You need New York.
You know you need unique New York.

Ss: We are practicing the sound [j]

T: Now I want you to read the tongue twister as quickly as you can. Well done!


Ознакомление с темой и задачами урока

T: Of course, New York is unique, as well as London or any other place on the globe and many people come to live to big towns and cities. Is it easy to live in the town? What do you think? Why?

Ss: In my opinion, people are fond of living in big cities because it is more comfortable and convenient here.

Ss: Living conditions are much better in towns and cities in comparison to villages.

T: I agree with you but if you look at the photos presented on the screen you can have second thoughts. These photos were taken in the streets of London by an amateur photographer Lee Jeffries. Who do you see in these pictures? What do they look like? How do you think they are feeling? Please, describe them. (Учитель предлагает учащимся описать фотографии, представленные в презентации)

Ss: People in the pictures are sad, ill. They don’t look happy.

Ss: They are wearing dirty clothes.

Ss: They have awful scars.

T: Who do you think they are?

Ss: I think they are homeless.

T: Right, they are homeless people. Unfortunately, homeless people are a common sight of a modern city nowadays. Now watch a video fragment on this topic. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VVeXr1t0t4) I hope it will help you understand the theme of our lesson. Try to guess what topic we are going to discuss today.

Ss: Today we are going to talk about the reasons why people become homeless, why they start to live on the streets.

abandoned • disused

Чтение текста и проверка понимания прочитанного.

T: On p. 84 of your textbooks there is a picture. Can you see it? Now read the title of the text. It is called “A life on the streets”. Could you guess what this text is about?

Task one

You have received а letter from your English-speaking pen-friend Sandra who writes:

Рефлексия

T: Now I want you to look at the sentences shown on the screen. Choose the phrases you like and complete them. They will help us to evaluate your work in the lesson.

T: In conclusion, I would like to recite a quote by Hans Christian Anderson, a Danish author.

Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom and flower.”

Yes, it's hard to see homeless people on the street. Whether you want to help for religious or moral reasons it can be very hard to know where to begin. Be compassionate, this is the most important emotion to have when helping the homeless. Homeless people want you to help them, but they don’t want to feel like they can't do anything themselves. Remember that they are not a charity case. Be respectful and understanding.

The most important thing is to be respectful. Treat them like people. They might just be down on their luck. Maybe get to know them more, or just be a friend to them. Don't be overly obvious that you feel bad for them, because that can be condescending. Help them keep their humanity.

T: Thank you for your attention. Good-bye.
