                                      Ход урока:

1. Организационный момент.

Исполнение песенок “Say Hello”, “How  do you do?”

2. Создание проблемной ситуации.

Teacher: I am very glad to see you. How are you? Are you OK?

So the theme of our lesson is “Famous People”.

Famous people… What does it mean?

Student 1: I think that a famous man is a man who is known by everybody.

Student 2: I have found out the meaning of the word “famous” in the “Oxford Student’s Dictionary of Current English”. The author of this dictionary is A.S.Hornby, the famous English linguist. So “famous” means known widely; having fame.

The word “famous” also has some synonyms:

Well-known – known by many

Outstanding – in a position to be easily noticed; attracting attention (because so good); successful.

Task 1:

 What famous English do you know?

Students: Margaret Thatcher, Michael Faraday, Isaak Newton, William Shakespeare, Robert Burns, etc.)

(На доске портреты известных людей  и их имена.)

Task 2:

Teacher: Students, let’s remember some facts from the biography of one of the famous English.

Student: I want to tell you about Michael Faraday. Michael Faraday, one of the famous English scientists was born in a poor family. He didn’t learn much and spent a lot of time playing in the street. When he was 14 he got some work in the bookseller’s shop. So Michael could read books. The young boy read a book written by Humphry Davy, English greatest scientist of that time. He liked it so much that he tried to get work in Davy’s laboratory. Soon Faraday became Davy’s laboratory assistant. Like Davy he became interesting in electricity. Michael discovered that electricity could be made by a machine. Nowadays we can say without Faraday and his work we can have no electricity and of course we can have no telephones, no radio, no television.

Task 3:

Teacher: Whose portrait is this?

Student: It is William Shakespeare.

Teacher: Now let’s read the text about William Shakespeare and answer the questions.

                      William Shakespeare

                           (1564 – 1616)

   William Shakespeare is one of the greatest and the most famous writers in the world. He was born in 1564 in Stratford-on-Avon. It was a small English town. His father wanted his son to be an educated person and William was sent to the local grammar school. When, as a boy, he studied at school, he had no time. When he had a break William liked to go to the forest and to the river Avon.

   At that time actors and actresses visited Stratford-on-Avon. William liked to watch them. He was fond of their profession and he decided to become an actor.

   Young Shakespeare went to London. There he became an actor. He began to write plays too. Shakespeare was both an actor and a playwright. In his works Shakespeare describes the most important and dramatic events in life. His plays were staged in many theaters, translated into many languages and they made Shakespeare a very popular man.

   The writer’s most famous plays are “Othello”, “King Lear”, “Hamlet” and “Romeo and Juliet”.

   He wrote 37 plays. He was connected with the best theaters in England for 25 years.

   William Shakespeare wrote a lot of poetry. His poems have been published in many languages. They are well-known. We don’t know a lot of facts about Shakespeare’s life. We can only guess what kind of man he was, that’s why there are a lot of legends about his life.

   William Shakespeare died in 1616. His plays are still popular and millions of people admire them.

                poetry – поэзия

                to admire – восхищаться чем-либо

                playwright – драматург

                           Questions

1. Is Shakespeare one of the greatest and the most famous writers in the world?
2. Where was he born?
3. Where did William study?
4. What did he like to do when he was a little boy?
5. What did William Shakespeare work as?
