III. Презентация проекта учащихся A SCHOOL UNIFORM

TEACHER: Clothes play an important in our life. And choice of course depends on the occasion. On the place we are going. As for students they have to wear a school uniform nearly every day. Is a good or a bad thing – this problem was investigated by Rezeda and her group. The floor is given to them.

A SCHOOL UNIFORM RAP:

School uniform
every day
Who looks cool
In navy and grey?
You mustn’t wear trainers
And your shoes are too dirty
You must be here
At eight-thirty
You mustn’t wear lipstick
Your heels are too high
You mustn’t wear earrings
And where’s your tie?
You must wear a blazer
And tie your hair back
Your socks must be white
Your shoes must be black
At last it’s the holidays
I can let down my hair
But I’m thinking
What shall I wear?

REZEDA: Who hasn’t heard such words? Everybody has. We looked into the problems connected with our school uniform. You see, we have to wear this outfit nearly half a day. That’s why it should be first of all beautiful, comfortable and cool. We decided to find out if teenagers like it or not. We interviewed students of all ages. Let’s listen to them.

(Идет фильм, снятый учащимися)

RADIK: So many people, so many opinions.

After thorough discussion we came to the conclusion that our school uniforms must be different from what we wear now. First of all it must be comfortable, practical, beautiful, not boring.

REZEDA: Now we’d like to offer you some outfits. It won’t be bad if we wear a folded skirt of bright colours, a nice cotton white shirt which is never out of fashion with a tie. It matches with a dark blue blazer and shoes with low heels of the same colour, a funny cap matching a bag and shoes. A dark leather bag will be the very thing. Now I think the outfit will be completed. We’d like to wear such a school uniform

VII. Презентация проекта “THE TEACHERS WORKING IN OUR CLASS”

(Учащиеся представляют компьютерную презентацию об учителях, работающих в данном классе)

MATVEI: Our project is called “The TEACHERS WORKING IN OUR CLASS”.

We are three in our group: Polina, Masha and me, Matvei

Our task was to look into the problem what an ideal model of a modern teacher is and whether our teachers suit it.

POLINA: After thorough consideration we came to the conclusion that a teacher must be attractive and smartly dressed because we all know the proverb “FINE DRESS HELPS TO IMPRESS”.

MASHA: And then his or her traits of character come. A perfect teacher ought to know his subject well (COMPETENT)

MATVEI: He must know how to organize classwork in more efficient way. (INTELLEGENT)

POLINA: He or she must be able to maintain discipline in class and makes students work hard and sets high standards (FAIR STRICT)

MASHA: She must be interested in his students and understand their problems. (UNDERSTANDING)

POLINA: respect students’ opinions and their individuality (POLITE AND TACTFUL)

MATVEI:

We asked students to write compositions about the teachers working in our class.

But they didn’t write their names. Your task is to guess who we are talking about.

MATVEI: (Учащиеся рассказывают о своих учителях, не называя имен, задача слушателей узнать в описании учителя)

1. Marina Anatolievna.

She has been teaching us for 4 years. Though she is young she knows her subject very well. She is tolerant and patient to us. She never shouts at us though we sometimes drive her crazy. This is she who gives us lessons of good and evil and helps us to understand the world. This is she who teaches us to treat people as we want to be treated by them. No doubt, we can trust and rely on her in any difficult situation. She will never fail us. She does everything in her power to make us friendly. To say more she has a good sense of humour. We do a lot of things with her: take part in different concerts, contests and others. When we are in trouble she is the first to come. She likes classical music Who is she?

POLINA:

2. Anastasia Michailovna.

This teacher has been working with us only for two years. But we have already loved her. She is small and slim. She is wearing glasses. We like the way she dresses and her pink jacket is quite recognizable. She likes working with a pointer. She is one of the most experienced teachers in our school. She can make complicated things understandable. We never waste time in vain at the lessons. We’ve learned that she likes gardening very much. When she was young, she was very sportive.

MASHA:

3. Gulnazira Vasilievna

I’d to tell you about another teacher of our class. In her childhood she enjoyed playing volleyball, she was very bossy and liked to give orders to other people and even now at her lessons she teaches us how to manage with this complicated life.

She is in her fifties but doesn’t look her age. She has got a round face with impressive eyes. Her hair started getting grey. She is a bit plumpish. But it does nothing to do with her character. She is a very interesting person. She is strict but fair. She knows how to make us learn her subject. She teaches us to understand the past of our country, learn a lot of dates connected with great events.

MATVEI:

4. Nina Pavlovna

She teaches us one of our new subjects. She was born in Leninogorsk and learned in our school, liked playing basketball and other sport games. She is good at cooking Russian pelmeni.

She is neither tall nor small. She is slim. Her face is oval with freckles which make her face attractive. Her hair is fair and short. The subject she teaches is difficult because we have to try to put science into practice doing different experiments. But it’s so interesting! Who is she?

MASHA:

5. Ilyusya Marselievna

This teacher helps us to travel all over the country. She has been teaching in our school for a long time. She is short and plumpish, she has got dark straight hair. She has a round face with confident expression and kind beautiful eyes. Her lessons are always interesting. She tells us a lot about different countries. She is an adventurous person. She is fond of travelling and never loses a chance to go on hikes with her family and her friends.

POLINA:

6. Nadezhda Victorovna.

She has been teaching us since we were in the 7form. At first we didn’t like her because she looked very strict, but later we understood she is one of best teachers in our school. Now we appreciate her modesty and honesty, her kindness and generosity. She knows her subject very well and can make difficult things understandable. Thanks to her we learned to solve problems in her subject. But you know it is not an easy matter. She is not only a skilled teacher, but a kind and understanding person. My classmates and I know how it’s sometimes difficult to teach and find a common language with us. But she does her best to do it . We respect her very much. She is so fond of her subject and wants us to love it too. And I think she succeeds in it. By the way when she was young, she liked to play volleyball and basketball. She likes lilacs very much and loves to cook buns, cakes and pies.

MATVEI:

So you see the teachers working in our class are competent, understanding, ready to give a helping hand to every pupil, that’s why we are very thankful to them for everything they do.

Some years ago our teachers were also young and studied at school. Of course, time passed and they grew older and changed. But how great these changes are. Let’s find them out! Try to recognize them in these photos. Who is who?
