Ход урока.
1. Good morning boys and girls. I am glad to see you at our lesson. “The Pleasure of Reading” is our topic for this term. Today we’ll speak about our reading habits, about the importance of reading and of course about English and American writers.
2. All people have different reading habits: some can’t live without reading, others don’t read at all exept TV programme. And what about you?
- How much time do you spend on reading?
- What kind of reading do you prefer: do you like reading books? newspapers? magazines?
- Do you read books only for your Russian Literature classes or do you do any extra reading?
- How old were you when you began reading? Do you remember what book was the first that you read?
- Do you collect books? How many books do you have at home?
- What does reading do for you? Is it important part of your life? In what way can reading be useful to people? (ex 1 p.137).
3. Now you can say what is reading for you. Finish the phrase: “Reading is....”.
4. I’ve prepared some quotations of famous people about reading. But they are mixed. Please make up sentenses and translate them (a group work).
- I / cannot /live / without/ reading / (Thomas Jefferson).
- Words / are/ the voice/ of the/ heart /(Confucius).
- Reading/ is/ to the mind/ what exercise / is/ to the body/ (Richard Steel).
- A library/ is/ a hospital/ for the/ mind /(Anonymous).
- Reading / is / a basic tool/ in the living/ of a good/ life/ (Mortimer J. Adler).
- A book/ is/ a garden/ carried/ in the pocket/ (Chinese proverb).
5. At home you prepared covers for some famous English and American books. You can see them on the blackboard. Now you’ll read extracts from these books. Match them with the covers of the books (Ex.2 p.138-139).
6. One minute speaking. You have only one minute to tell you classmates about your favourite books, writers and characters. What can you recommend them for reading.
7. Today we have a very good oppportunity to speak with an expert of A.Milne’s biography. Not long ago we read about this famous writer and spoke about his books. I am sure Natasha knows a lot of his life and can give us many interesting details.
8. It seems to me that somebody is waiting for a word. I have one more surprise for you. The heroes of A. Milne’s book “Winnie- the -Pooh” have come here. This is Rabbit and this is Winnie- the- Pooh. You are welcome.
Winnie-the-Pooh: (громко) Is anybody at home? (стучит в дверью, за дверью слышен шум)
Rabbit: No. Don’t shout so loud. I can hear you quite well.
W.P.: Sorry. Isn’t there anybody here?
R.: Nobody.
W. P. There must be somebody there, because somebody said, “Nobody.” Hello, Rabbit, isn’t that you?
R.: No
W.P. Well, could you very kindly tell me whre Rabbit is?
R.: He has gone to see his friend Pooh Bear who is a great friend of his.
W.P.: To his friend Pooh? But this is me.
R.: What sort of me?
WP.:Pooh Bear.
R.: Are you sure?
W.P.: Quite sure.
R.: Oh, whell, then come in.
(Вини Пух с трудом протискивается в дом кролика.)
R.: You were quite right. It is you. Glad to see you. I am just going to have dinner.
(Винни Пух и Кролик садятся за стол.) Honey or condensed milk with bread?
W.: Both. But don’t bother about the bread, please.
(Через некоторое время) Thank you. Now I have to go!
R.: Good-bye, Pooh! Иностранные языки в школе, №2, 1992г.

My books are just standing on bookshelves
That I’m always happy to read
My favourite’s under my pillow.
The English book is what I need.
Chorus: Read books, read books,
They were invented to read, to read.
Read books, read books,
English book is what I need.
The book that was written in English
Improves your knowledge as well,
It teaches your lexics and grammar
And how the English words spell.
Chorus.
