Физкультминутка:
Now, children, let’s do some exercises for our eyes! Up! Down! Left! Right!
And for our bodies!
Stand up please!
Hands up! Hands aside! Hands down!
Bend right! Bend left!
5. На стенах с 4 сторон четыре разные картинки или группы картин, изображающие
1) войну, беженцев
2) голод, бедность, бездомных, детский труд
3) исчезающие виды животных, глобальное потепление
4) ураган, торнадо и др. природные катаклизмы
Т: Look at the pictures on the walls and choose the picture you think reflects the most urgent global issue and go to that picture.
Дети подходят к картинке, которая, по их мнению, изображает наиболее насущную проблему.
Т: Which issue do you think is the most urgent nowadays? Why do you think so?
1) война, беженцы
I think that war is the most urgent issue because there are several places where it occurs on our planet and this country is involved in it from time to time.
Refugees are the most urgent issue now. People run away from places where they live because of different hostilities there.
2) голод, бедность, бездомные, детский труд
I think homelessness is becoming a very urgent problem because more and more people lose their homes and live rough.
Poverty is also rather urgent. Sometimes even in our city we can see people (beggars) who ask for money in the streets.
3) исчезающие виды животных, глобальное потепление
The climate on the earth is getting hotter and hotter and it is a very serious problem which is called global warming.
Some species of plants and animals have already disappeared and there are many endangered ones. This is a very urgent problem.
4) ураган, торнадо и др. природные катаклизмы
Natural disasters are not predictable and that is why are very dangerous. They really can become a serious problem because they damage people’s health and property.
Hurricanes for example occur in our Republic every year and cause bad damage. It is an urgent problem.
Heavy rainfalls can cause the floods even in our region to say nothing about snow melting in spring.
