Ход мероприятия

Good morning, boys! Good morning, girls! I am glad to see

you.

Учитель приветствует детей и предлагает им разделиться

на 2 команды по 5–7 человек в каждой команде.

Today we shall play the game “Sea Battle”. We have two

teams. I hope you know how to play this game. You will try

to guess where the ship of the enemy is. Then you will have

the task. If the pupils of one team do the task better, than

another, they will have the ship. At the end of the game the

teams will count the ships and we shall find out who is the

winner.

Учитель привлекает внимание детей к игровому полю, за-

ранее вывешенному на доске, и напоминает детям правила

игры «Морской бой». Команды по очереди открывают клетки

игрового поля, на котором расположено 6 кораблей. Каждый

корабль занимает 1 клетку игрового поля. Если команда на-

звала номер клетки, на которой расположен корабль, обе ко-

манды выполняют задание. Команда, выполнившая задание

лучше и успешнее, получает корабль. Выигрывает команда,

которая «захватила» больше кораблей.

Учитель вывешивает на доске картинки и достопримеча-

тельности столицы Великобритании: the Grand Canyon, the

White House, the Statue of Liberty, the Capitol. Команды пред-

ставляют по 2–3 рассказа.

1. It is the White House. The part where the President of the

United States lives and works is not open to the public.

The White House is one of the most beautiful places in the

capital of the USA. It consists of 132 rooms. You can visit

the library, the Red Room, the Blue Room and the Green

Room which have some fantastic old furniture.

2. The Grand Canyon is one of the places which attract the

tourists visiting America. The canyon is one mile deep

and 277 miles long. There are different kinds of plants and

animals on the opposite sides of the canyon. The south side

is a dry and desert country. The north side has tall forests.

The canyon looks different at different times of the day and

in different seasons and weather.

3. You can see the Statue of Liberty. It was built in New York

Harbor in 1886. It was a gift to America from the people

of France. About 12 million immigrants passed through

New York when they came to America. The first thing they

saw after their long trip was the Statue of Liberty, which is

America’s symbol of freedom.

4. The Сapitol is the tallest building in Washington, D. C., and

the most famous building in the United States, because it is

the place where the laws are made. The Capitol is surrounded

by a beautiful garden with many trees and flowers. You can

visit the Capitol from 9 a. m. to 3:45 p.m. In the Capitol you

can learn a lot about the first settlements in New England.
