«Написание личного письма в формате ЕГЭ по английскому языку»

Методическая разработка урока английского языка в 11 классе.

«Написание личного письма в формате

ЕГЭ по английскому языку»

Целью данного урока является обучение иноязычному письму. Среди четырех основных видов речевой деятельности (говорение, аудирование, чтение и письмо), обеспечивающих общеязыковую подготовку и формирование языковой личности обучающихся, письмо наименее осмысленно и недостаточно разработано. Однако письмо является надежным способом межкультурного взаимодействия людей друг с другом, а также важнейшим условием совершенствования устной формы общения (говорения). Кроме того, задания по письму включены в ЕГЭ.

Практические задачи урока:

• Учить находить дифференциальные признаки писем личного характера разных видов.

• Учить создавать собственные творческие тексты аналогичного жанра на иностранном языке.

• Обогащать словарный запас учащихся, обращая внимание на владение специфической лексикой для написания личного письма.

• Совершенствовать умение аудировать и читать с извлечением информации.

• Совершенствовать устную форму общения.

• Развивать языковое (абстрактное) мышление учащихся.

• Развивать учащихся интеллектуально.

• Способствовать развитию личности учащихся.

• Формировать знания о культуре, языке, реалиях страны изучаемого языка.

• Воспитывать положительное отношение к культуре англоязычных стран.

Оборудование:

Презентация Power Point компьютер, проектор, раздаточный материал с рекомендациями к заданиям, карточки-задания для групповой работы, учебник УМК « Happy English.ru» 11 класс, К. Кауфман, М. Кауфман. «Титул» 2012 год

Did you read my love letter?
Did it touch your heart?
When you read my love letter

Sunny days, smiling face

Reminiscing of good times

Did it touch your heart?
(Yeah yeah)
When you read my love letter

Sweet dreams, butterflies
Holding hands, side by side
Best friends, families

Dear Jane,

I’m terribly sorry that I couldn’t come last night. My sister fell ill and I was obliged to stay. I felt awful about letting you down and there was no way I could phone you.

However I would be very pleased if I could still help you in some way. I do hope I can still help you.

Once again I apologize for letting you down and wish you every success with your research.

Your friend,

Kate.

Dear Santa Claus,

        My name is Sally and I am 5 and 1/2 years old. I have been a very good girl this year. I help Mommy wash the dishes every night, and I listen to Daddy when he tells me to clean my room. I am also nice to my little brother, even though he can be really annoying sometimes.

        Thank you for all the presents last year. They were all really nice, and I played with all of them a lot. This year I would like a jump rope, a kitten, and a new bike. I really really want the bike.

        Please give my love to Mrs. Claus, the elves, and all the reindeer, especially Rudolph. I will leave some carrots for the reindeer next to your milk and cookies.

Love,

Sally.
