The Procedure of the extra-curricular lesson
Good afternoon! I’m glad to see you today, sit down, please.
Declare an aim : We talked a lot of your, your friends, parents’ characters, and jobs and today I’d like you to sum up your knowledge. It will be the first part of our lesson.
Dear friends! Nice to see you! Today we are going to have an unusual lesson. Look at the screen. What do you see there?
P-s: We see our planet.
T: Is it beautiful?
P1: Yes, it is.
T: What is the name of our planet?
P2: Its name is the Earth.
T: I want you to think and answer the question: What is the Earth for you? ( На экране появляется вопрос“What is the Earth for you?” Внизу варианты ответов: a part of the universe, my home, a beautiful planet, a miracle, a place where I live, the wonderful world.
I’ll begin: The Earth is a part of the universe for me.
P-s: The Earth is my home. The Earth is a miracle for me. ……..
3T: Thank you for your answers. I like them very much. So what will we speak about at the lessоn?
P-s: We’ll speak about our planet. We’ll speak about the nature of the Earth.
T: You are right. We’ll speak also about the people’s attitude to nature. And the name of our lesson is “Nature and We”.
4)
T: So, let’s start. First of all let’s repeat the words of our topic
Nature, environment, ecology, ecological, air, water, forest, river, ocean, animal, to breathe, clean, dirty, plant, to plant, to pollute, polluted, pollution, to protect, protection, to keep, rule,
the atmosphere, toxins, dangerous, in danger, to kill, to burn, to bury, litter, to drop, to save
5)
T: Look, there are three underlined words: environment, ecology, and pollution. Do you know the meaning of them? Let’s try to explain these words. Look at the screen. Your task is to match these words with theirexplanation. ( Учитель предлагает ученикам сопоставить слова с их толкованием.)
Ecology air, water, and land, in which people, animals and plants live
Environment making water, air, atmosphere dirty and dangerous
for people, animals, and plants
Pollution natural balance between plants, animals and their environment
T: Now we know the explanation of the words: Ecology, Environment, and Pollution. If we say that the environment is polluted it means that there is no balance between plants, animals, people and their environment.
6).
Look at the screen and answer my question: Are people and nature friends or enemies? You have two cards: yellow and green. Those who think that people are friends of nature choose the green card. Those who think that people are enemies of nature choose the yellow card. Show me your cards. Why do you think so?
Prove that people are friends of nature.
Reading T: I see that you are real friends of nature. You know the green rules for campers.
But look at this picture. These campers are going home from the forest where they had a rest. They didn’t know green rules and they did a lot of ecological mistakes.
