Now let’s read and translate the text “Decorating the tree” and then you’ll act it using these pictures.
Decorating the New Year’s tree
Right after lunch on Thursday, the boys goy ready to decorate the New Year’s Tree. Their father had put the tree up in the living room earlier in the day.
As the boys unpacked the boxes of decorations, Vanya asked, “Where’s your sister Olga? She’s going to help us, isn’t she?”
“She went to the library,” Kolya said. “She’ll help us when she gets home.”
“What’ll we do first?” Vanya asked.
“We’d better put the lights on first,” answered Kolya. “The old ones are in this box. The new ones are still in that package over there.” He took the old lights out of the box and began to wind them around the tree.
Vanya opened the package of new lights and took them to Kolya. Kolya wound them around the tree too.
“OK, they’re all on the tree now,” said Kolya. “Turn them on, Vanya. Let’s see how they look.”
Vanya turned the lights on. “Oh, they’re beautiful!” he said. “This tree is almost as bright as the one downtown.”
“Fine,” said Kolya. “Now you’d better turn them off again so we can finish decorating the tree.”
Next, the boys hung coloured glass balls on the branches of the tree. “We’re almost finished,” said Vanya. “If Olga doesn’t come home pretty soon, she won’t be able to help us at all.”
Just then Olga came in. “You’ve already finished decorating the tree!” she exclaimed. “I wanted to help you!”
“You can still help us,” said Kolya. “You can put the star on the top. Here. Stand on this chair.”
Olga put the star on the top of the tree. Then she got down off the chair and carried it to the other side of the room. “The tree looks beautiful!” she said. “It’s the best one that we’ve ever had!”
“It was fun to decorate it,” Vanya said.
At home you should write your own little story and draw some pictures of your story. And we’ll act the best stories.

I. Hello! Now we know that there are very many different holidays and every nation celebrates them in its own way. But there are some immortal things. I’ll name these things and you should try to guess the name of holiday.
II. Love to women and mothers – the 8th of March, Mother’s Day
Respect to heroes – Victory Day, the 23rd of February
Love and respect to our fathers – Father’s Day
Trust in God – Easter, Christmas
And now I’ll read you a text. Listen to it and then tell me who is the heroe of this text.
APRIL, 12
On April 12, 1961, at seven minutes past nine in the morning, Moscow time, the sputnik-spaceship “Vostok” was launched into space with a man on board. It was launched from Baikonur cosmodrom in West Siberia. At 10.55 after a round-the-earth flight the sputnik-spaceship landed near the village of Smelovka, Saratov region.
The first man who made the first space flight was a Soviet man.
He was the first man who could see with his own eyes that the Eearth is round.
This flight opened up a new page in the history of the conquest of space.
Do you know this man? Yes, his name is Yuri Gagarin. And now look at these cards with new words and try to guess their meaning. (Учащиеся читают новые слова и выражения и пытаются «угадать» их значение).
And now listen to the text once again and tell if these sentences are true or false.
O n April 12, 1961 the sputnik-spaceship “Soyuz” was launched into space with a man on board.
The sputnik-spaceship was launched from Baikonur cosmodrom in West Siberia.
The sputnik-spaceship was launched into space with a dog on board.
After a round-the-earth flight the sputnik-spaceship landed near the village Sosnovka.
The village Smelovka is in Saratov region.
The first man who made the first space flight was an American.
Yuri Gagarin was the first man who could see with his own eyes that the Eearth is round.
8) The first flight opened up a new page in the history of the conquest of
space.
And now look at these pictures and try to retell this text.
Now you will hear a boy talking in 3 different situations. For situations 1–3, choose and circle the best answer A, B or C.
My parents gave me a great present – a mobile telephone. They think that I’m safer if I have a mobile. But my parents made me promise that I wouldn’t spend a lot of time and money sending texts and would turn it off in classes. Of course, I promised.
I adore giving presents. Though I have never been good at finding them in advance. I have one friend who buys gifts in the week after Christmas for the following year. But as for me, I rush around at the eleventh hour to do my Christmas shopping.
It’s fun buying gifts for everyone. One problem is that you never have enough money. I get some money from my parents, but it’s not enough. So I can never buy what I want for my parents and friends. What exactly? Maybe, perfume for mum… Maybe a fluffy toy for my girlfriend.
The task:
His parents gave him a phone because:
A. Everybody already had one.
B. They wanted him to have a good social life.
C. They thought he was safer if he had a mobile.
The boy:
buys presents at the very last moment.
is good at finding presents in advance.
buys gifts in the week after Christmas.
The boy is complaining that he:
can’t think of what to buy for his nearest and dearest.
can’t find gifts which he wants to buy.
doesn’t have enough money.
Now let’s listen to your stories and then we’ll act the best ones.
At home you should practise new words and expressions.

Домашнее задание.
Hello! I think that now we know very much about holidays. So we’ll start our lesson from guessing riddles. Listen to the tape-recorder and then name the holiday.
II. 1) This holiday is celebrated as in Russia as in England. On this day you can meet someone who will try to pull your leg. Everybody likes to play jokes on this day. It is a day for fun. (April Fool’s Day)
2) It is a happy and nice holiday. On this day men give women flowers and presents, and do all the domestic work around the house. Sons and daughters help their mothers too: they make a cake, lay the table, wash the dishes after holiday dinner. (The 8th of March, Mother’s Day)
3) This holiday is very popular, especially with children. In every house there is a fir-tree. We like to decorate it with toys, little coloured lights, sweets and beautiful star on the top. It is a pleasant moment to get presents on this day. The presents are supposed to be sent by Father Frost and the Snow Maiden. (New Year’s Day)
4) This holiday has no fixed date. It is in commemoration of the resurrection of Jesus. People greet each other by the words “Christ is risen” and the expected answer is “He is risen indeed”. People also paint eggs and give them to one another as a symbol of eternal life. (Easter)
5) It is a spring holiday. Usually it is warm during this day. A couple of years ago it used to be a great holiday in Russia. People used to go to demonstrations to show their solidarity with the working class all over the world. They would sing patriotic songs and carry slogans and flags. (May Day)
6) This holiday is connected with the wonderful birth of Jesus Christ as it described in the Holy Bible. On that day more than 2000 years ago, Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem. It falls on December 25 by the Catholic Church and on the 7th of January by the Orthodox Church. (Christmas)
III. OK. Very good. I think that among these holidays you have your favourite one. Can you tell us about it? I think it will be not so easy. So to help you speak on this topic I give you topical patterns. (Ребятам предлагается текст-образец по теме «Мой любимый праздник».)
