Конспект открытого урока “Where there is a will, there is away”

Good morning. . I’m glad to see you again. Take your seats, please.

How are you?

I’m fine too, thank you.

What date is it today?

What is the weather like today?

 Well, I see that you are ready to start our work. Let’s start it!

First, I want to say that we are going to have a very interesting lesson today.

As you may remember, recently we’ve come across with a topic “Where there is a will, there is a way” in our student’s book (Spotlight Module 2). I would like to reveal this topic from the other point of view.

Look at the screen.

Here are some English proverbs. Match the two parts of them.

Well done!

 What are all these proverbs about?

Yes, all of them are about the power of will. We are going to speak about it and not only about it today.

How do you understand the meaning of the proverb “Where there is a will, there is a way”?  What does this proverb teach us to do?

Good, that’s it!

Look at the blackboard.

«How to overcome difficulties in unusual situations and not to lose hope and self-confidence»?

At the last lesson we discussed a lot of different life situations due to the topic of the module 2, learned the words and word combinations, which help us understand some terms and notions. Open your vocabularies and revise them.

We talked about stressful situations, peer pressure, exam stress and problems connected with them.

 Today I’d like to give a talk about a more general problem which concerns everybody – COVID 19. It’s a worldwide issue, which took more than three years to be solved. And it is thanks to the strong willpower and unification of the humanity that we could resist this awful epidemic.

The epidemic came all of a sudden. Millions of deaths, diseases and restrictions. It changed our life entirely. It affected all the spheres of our vital activities. First it seemed to have no end. Scientists were unable to do to anything. However, people demonstrated strong will and managed to resist it.

Now I suggest to name some positive aftereffects of Covid. The struggle was durative and hard, but it was also educational. We learned to build temporary hospitals in two days, we learned to help the elderly, we learned to work day and night to save people’s lives. Moreover, the period of lockdown taught us a lot of useful things. Some of them found their place in our life and has become an inseparable part of it. Here we must remember the topic of our lesson-“If there is a will, there is a way”. Not only have we found a way out, but also we took a lot of benefits from it. Can you name some of them? Sveta, what can you say?

Good, Sveta, I do agree with you. Who else wants to tell us about his opinion?

Good, Sasha. I like the way of your thinking. Andrey, What would you like to add?

Let me agree with you, Andrey. I am also a great fan of online shopping.

 In my turn, I want to add that one of the biggest achievements of that period was online education, which proved to be not less productive than the traditional one. Also the transition to online work is surely a great innovation. People learned to economy their time and liked the idea of working from home. Needless to talk about online services – online shopping and delivery services. It must be mentioned that today, when Covid is nearly over, we still continue using these services and have no intention to stop it. It’s very comfortable and time-saving.

  We shouldn’t forget about one more prominent result of Covid -  CHARITY. People learned to help and support, to empathize and love, to appreciate and thank, to overcome and win.

All these above-mentioned achievements are very valuable and worthy; obviously, they built our character and made us better.

Here we must also mention some funny and curious events, which occurred during that period. As it is known, “Humor saves the world”.

During the long period of worldwide lockdown, people, in order to get out of stressful situations, came up with ways of self-entertainment. Some took up new hobbies, others set free their imagination. Can you remember any funny things people used to do in the period of lockdown?

  People started to make medical masks from socks, pants and even bras. Making masks influenced the fashion industry, too. Modern designers released collections of glamour masks. Until now you can meet see them on some people.

Then came the fashion of self-made dresses from linen, pillows and blankets. Every modern girl had a selfie wearing such clothing.

In some European countries, there were cases when people organized concerts from balconies for neighbors. Musicians were playing music in their balconies, while the neighbors were dancing and singing with them from their balconies, thus having a great time. It was very cool!

In fact, I’ve prepared a presentation on this topic, which depicts the all the above mentioned events. Let’s enjoy them together.  (Приложение 1-презентация)

Here are those funny and glamourous masks you’ve talked about. You see how creative people are and it’s very cool.

In this slide you can see those modern girls wearing pillows. By the way, they look rather nice!

Of course, I also liked the idea of balcony concerts. As far as I remember, the concerts were held in Spain. Moreover, not only did people play concerts in their balconies, but they also organized sport time. . The trainer was doing exercises in the street while people were repeating his motion in their balconies. Such kind of events united people and helped them overcome depression.

There have also been some cases of online marriages via Zoom. The bride and the groom were being engaged in front of the camera, while their friends and relatives were congratulating them from the other side of the screen.

There was also a number of cases connected with news presenters, who were airing from home. When the program ended, he forgot to switch the camera off and stood up. Oooops! He turned to be in pants! There were no trousers on him. It was so ridiculous!

In fact, there have been thousands of both sad and funny events - today we remember all these things with a smile. We can say that together we could overcome all the difficulties. That’s because mankind is strong, willful and determined.

That’s all for today, I hope you enjoyed your lesson.

Now write down your home task:

Think of another interesting topic for the next extracurricular lesson.

 Have a nice day! Good – bye, everybody!
