                                                            I.Introduction

    This course is about using computer learning technologies in the process of teaching English in school. When I was going to start listening to the course I intended to discover information about technologies that would make my lessons more colourful and more interesting. My students are young learners of the Primary School so they have some special features that require some special efforts to make learning effective, to involve more pupils and encourage them. They are slow, their attention spans are short, and they like to play games, sing songs and move. They meet a lot of difficulties in learning foreign letters, writing, reading and grammar, but our first task on this level is to teach them oral speaking.

     While we attended lectures of the course we had got a lot of useful we had got a lot of useful information about Internet sites and their contents. We were informed a lot about possibilities of using Internet sites both for teaching and educating ourselves.

     The main topics covered during the course described how to get information about everything you like and also how to create your own space in the Internet  to save all the information you need for work and place your own information.

     Firstly, we discussed the computer and Internet terms in English. Then we learned to create a Power Point Presentation that could be connected with any Internet sites, video and audio files, images and links.

      Secondly, we debated short and long term projects on different topics that could be individual or group or even school-linked. Then we considered the efficiency of plenty of different web quests and could make our own web quests for our pupils. We found some web quests that we would ever use in the classroom. Finely, we learned to organize our own space in the pbwork.com site.

    Thirdly, we observed the educational features of social network in terms of performing projects. Then we learned to create our own blogs with different pages

                                                      4

and any contents.

     Fourthly, we could make our own digital audio files and use The Internet sites that correct the English pronunciation. Moreover, we learned to use the Internet for real instant communication and improve our English in Use skills.

     At last, we created our own websites, discussed  Nearpod possibilities and observed free educational courses in the Internet. Besides, we learned to use the Internet for creating of different types of puzzles, crosswords, exercises, playing games and making other funny and colourful things.

      Since I have joined the course every my lesson includes some Internet technologies.

      We suggest this lesson plan to your attention because we consider it to be gripping   and involving for the age and level our young learners of the Primary School. Our students like to move, to play and to discover unknown things. They all are keen of sports. That is why we choose Playing Golf because it seems to be a part of both English culture and sportive life. It is popular among people of different ages and also among children as in the UK as in the USA.  It is not popular in our country so long, but we have Golf courses in Scolkovo and somewhere else, besides it is more interesting for all of us to speak about this unexplored matter.

                                           1. Content

  We chose a blog technology for concentrating all the information on our own Golfblog in the Google Browser.   We place a Web Quest about Playing Golf there.

We can make permanent additions and change  the content by adding new pages to have a chance to return to this theme again.

  We chose some sites for usage in the classroom. Most often we referred to a very interesting Slide Show from the Golf Digest. It is called How to Play Golf. A Beginner’s Guide From Golf Digest. It contains enough information to perform the part of task. Click  http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-instruction/golf-beginners-tips#slide=1 to have a look.

    We use video files from youtube.com  to illustrate play grips. There are very detailed and easy explanations from the native speakers too. Firstly, Brian Russel starring. Click    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H25jGApaqQM  and you can watch him playing. The traditional rules of playing in a team we can learn from the Wikipedia.org site. Click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golf#Team_play and grab a little passage about Team play from here. Some exiting information for reading you can have on the site about junior teams in PGA (Professional Golf Association) from America. It is all about young golfers of the same age as my pupils are. Click

http://www.pgajrleaguegolf.com/usa/  and watch. There is a very interesting video and short speeches of young golfers trainees, children and parents about PGA Junior League Golf.     The last site of interest for this lesson is about famous people who are fond of Golf. Click http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1059503-the-20-best-celebrity-golfers/page/6  and you can meet 20 Best Celebrity Golfers such as Justin Timberlake and Michael Jordan. Also we advise to visit another site about famous people

https://www.americangolf.com/blog/mulligans/the-10coolest-golfing-celebrities-to-round-out-your-foursome/ and meet 10 coolest golfing celebrities from Hollywood and TV.

                                                       6

    This fascinating game has got a rich impact in British and American life and in the Internet sites either. So, we had a chance to collect a lot of material for our further research. Firstly we’d like to pay attention to a video from monkeysee.com about young golf  nuts. It helps to encourage young kids to play and speak about Golf. Click http://www.monkeysee.com/play/13331-fun-golf-drills-for-kids  and listen to a speech full of enthusiasm about Fun Golf  Drills for Kids by Jay Golden.

    Then we found out a very interesting video about the correction of the golf posture on videojug.com with Mark Barlow. This video is supplied by a short text, so we can have both a good piece of language and enthusiasm. Click http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-correct-golf-posture?channel=sports-and-outdoors  and you can train right now. Then we should read, discuss and try without a ball in the classroom. At last we would like to learn a shot called pitch. Click

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhA2W0Lm1mA  and you can find a serial of short video with Rick Stronger which will perfectly teach you to hit a ball, swing and stop hitting fat in Golf.

  Secondly we want to show a short video of a good quality with subtitles when green smooth golf courses are shown. Click  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-P2rXk9e3U and listen to Jim E.Smit in Tiger Woods.

      All these videos with subtitles could train us to play golf and in addition train our listening skills.

                                       2. The  lesson plan

                                                a) The aims of the lesson        

       The main aim of the lesson called Playing Golf is developing speaking and exploring skills of our pupils and giving them a lot of information on Regional Studies and native English language. As one of the main aim of the lesson we consider developing their exploring skills by means of using the Internet sites.

    Some subsidiary aims that we try to achieve are connected with studying skills, reading and writing skills, successful communication skills and so on. We approved of drawing up the results of the investigation by means of Power Point Presentation and any other Internet tools. We appreciated the team work both in the classroom and at home with the family.

                                  b) The intended audience

   This lesson is intended for a group of 12-14 pupils of the 4th grade. Their age should be up 10 years old. They should be fans of computer games and Internet and have User of the Internet skills to a certain extent. Their level should sometimes be as high as Elementary level. They have to read small unknown authentic texts and choose some information to perform the task. They have to fill in the forms, search images and compose short reports.

                                 c) Technological equipment

     Technological equipment required for the lesson includes computers, a projector with a screen, the Internet connection, a printer, all that stuff we can meet in our English language study. In case you don’t have more than one computer in the classroom you should give a special homework for your young computer fans. Then you should extend this lesson into two lessons and undertake   a kind of a short Project.

                                  d)  The lesson stages

     The lesson lasts 45 minutes. The detailed information about the task of the Quest besides the second part we can find in our Golfblog if we click http://webquestgolf.blogspot.ru/

     At the beginning of the lesson a teacher explains to the pupils the theme and presents new words. All pupils are divided into 5-6 groups with 2-3 pupils in each group. It takes about 3 minutes.  There are 5 main stages of the lesson.  

1) Pupils watch the video with Brian Russell. It takes 5 minutes.

                                        Conclusion

      The course about using computer technologies and the Internet during the lesson seemed to be exciting and very useful for work in the classroom. From our point of view the most involving  part of the course  is the part about blogs. I also liked pbworks space. Personal space in the Internet allows saving a lot of information, use it afterwards and sharing with friends.   Creating pictures, dialogues and leaflets are enjoyable and fun. I mean pimpampum  sites. For young learners the most involving  site would be British Council sites. We could sing songs, print and read texts of these songs, do a lot  of grammar exercises. We found  a lot of Quests about food, fairy-tails in Quests garden site and we'd like to undertake our own project using the content   and ideas of these quests.  We use Audacity site to create a Power Point Presentation about Pupil's Speaking Skills. Now we can send e-mails to parents or place it in our nsportal blog.

    We met some difficulties in our work with Hot Potatoes puzzles, we print them, try to solve  and  then could see the answers. We could use Vocaroo site, but it worked slowly. We had got a few attempts.  We had a good time in the classroom while we had been watching Video for children, cartoons, playing computer games for beginners.

    This course met our expectations. Short Video films  proved to be especially useful, while Power Point Presentations and quests garden seemed to be the most practical tools for teaching young learners. I like YouTube, videojug, monkeysee best of all. We had a lesson devoted to Golf-beginners-tips and pupils made reports, using images from the Internet and even Power Point Presentation on their own.
