Неделя английского языка
В наше время изучение английского языка является особенно актуальным, что обуславливается все более ярко вырисовывающейся тенденцией развития международных связей и отношений России со странами всего мира. Английский язык является связующим звеном между представителями различных стран, которые имеют определенного рода общие интересы и цели. Поэтому, сегодня перед учителями английского языка стоят важные задачи: привлечь особое внимание детей к изучению языка, поддерживать интерес учащихся к нему, постоянно мотивируя их на различных этапах обучения.
В связи с этим проведение недели английского языка в школе приобретает особую роль – она помогает достичь этих целей, но для этого ее необходимо определенным образом спланировать, создавая условия для раскрытия творческого потенциала ребенка, который, возможно, не может быть раскрыт в рамках урока, а также учитывая особенности возраста школьников. С развитием информационных технологий, в наше время, эти условия можно создать с помощью мультимедийного сопровождения всех мероприятий. Также не стоит забывать о традиционных творческих групповых работах, таких как создание стенгазет, подготовка сценок, чтение стихов, исполнение песен и т.д. Ко всему прочему, это вырабатывает в ребенке уважение к культуре других стран, в частности к странам изучаемого языка. Проведение конкурсов, викторин также повышают интерес учащихся к языку и порождают среди них здоровую конкуренцию, которая призвана улучшить коммуникативные способности учеников. Вообще, вся неделя в целом должна способствовать тому, чтобы школьник мог применять знания языка во многих сферах жизни, и чем таковых больше – тем лучше.
План мероприятий, проводимых на неделе английского языка, может быть следующим:
Понедельник. Открытие недели английского языка – торжественная линейка; поздравление директора с открытием недели английского языка (оно должно быть обязательно (хотя бы частично) на английском языке); выступление руководителя ШМО и объявление плана мероприятий на каждый день недели английского языка; кроме того, красочное объявление о неделе английского языка и плане мероприятий висит при входе в школу. Конкурс чтецов. Конкурс стенгазет на тему «Great British writers» (вывешиваются, оцениваются в течение недели – в заключительные день объявляются итоги).
Вторник. Игра по станциям для 5-6 классов. Игровая программа для начальных классов.
Среда. Викторины по странам изучаемого языка для всех классов (6-9 классы). Проектные работы учащихся на тему «Sights of the English-speaking countries» (10-11 классы).
Четверг. Конкурс театральных постановок.
Пятница. Закрытие недели: подведение итогов, награждение. Заключительный концерт.
Задания, которые можно предложить для учащихся начальной школы:
1. Учимся приветствовать и знакомиться друг с другом.
2. Учитель раскладывает на столе карточки с буквами (буквами вниз), ученик вытягивает и называет слово на эту букву.
3. Guess the meaning (развивает и формирует навыки достижения смысловой эквивалентности иностранных слов).
Предлагаются следующие слова: radio, orange, zoo, kangaroo, television, popcorn, piano, milk, telephone, tiger, artist, actor, computer, photo, tomato, giraffe, computer и др.
(тот, кто угадывает слово – получает жетон)
4. Игра «Setting the table» («Накрываем на стол»).
Каждому ребенку раздаются: салфетка, пластмассовые тарелка, чашка, блюдце, вилка, ложка, нож.
Дети называют все эти предметы по-английски (тот, кто называет первым – получает жетон).
Далее учитель говорит: «Let`s set the table» (давайте накроем стол). Он дает указания, а дети выполняют указания («Take you napkin», «Put your napkin on the table», «Take your plate», «Put your plate on the napkin», «Take your knife», «Put your knife on the napkin» и т.д.).
После этого как столы будут накрыты, дайте команду: Eat! Дети выполняют команду, изображая процесс еды.
Тот, кто повторит процесс накрывания стола самостоятельно, произнося вслух каждое указание – получает жетон (по желанию).
В конце всех конкурсов определяется победитель и призеры по количеству жетонов, им вручаются призы.

Jester (поет речитативом) :
Once there was a lad that killed a King’s deer,
And gave its meat to his mother.
So he was to be hung at Nottingham Fair
And with him five another...
Guard: Listen! The Sheriff is coming to his castle in Nottingham!
Soldier (ведет арестованного): Where’s the Sheriff?
Guard: Here. What do you want? Who is this man?
Soldier: He is a Saxon. We caught him in the forest. He killed a King’s deer!
Sheriff: What? Did I hear correctly? Killed a King’s deer?!
John: We had no food. I had to kill it! I must feed my family!
Sheriff: How often must I tell you, people? The forest belongs to the King! The animals belong to the King! You mustn’t kill them! Hang him!
John: We were hungry. We had nothing to eat!
Sheriff: Take him away! You’ll be hung tomorrow!
(Открывается занавес – на сцене городская площадь, торговцы с корзинами, один из них торгует яблоками.)
Robin: Come and have a look! The best apples for a trifle! Take five-I’ll give you a knife! Take ten-you’ll get a hen!
Sheriff: What are you doing? Why do you sell apples so cheap?
Robin: My father left me a large apple garden, I don’t know what to do with the apples, so I give them to people.
Sheriff: Sell me your garden. Where is it?
Robin: Not far from here, sir. I’ll show you. But first I’d like to see the city.
Sheriff: What do you want to see? Here’s the castle and the prison. I’ve got five of Robin Hood’s men there. Come to the fair tomorrow and you’ll see us hung them.
Robin: Well, I’ll come tomorrow. And now follow me. (Уходят со сцены, занавес закрывается.)
Sheriff: We have gone so far, where is your apple garden?
Robin: We have come –here it is!
Sheriff: But this is not a garden – this is Sherwood forest! And there lives ....
Robin: Robin Hood? Yes, I do! (Снимает шляпу и плащ.) Welcome to my place! We’ve got a lot of apples over here. And here is one for you! (Достает яблоко и ставит на голову шерифу, занавес открывается, на сцене стоят лучники, нацелив луки на шерифа.)
How much would you pay for your apple? (Шериф дрожит от страха, достает кошелек, отдает Робину.)
Robin: No, it’s not enough, give us your ring also. (Шериф отдает свой перстень.)
Now you may go, but don’t forget you’ve got a lot of friends in Sherwood. Don’t leave your apple!
(Шериф убегает.)
Brothers (свистят ему вслед, затем танцуют и поют):
Hey-ho, brothers,
Our homeland is Sherwood,
With no King, with no Sheriff
Our life is very good! (Занавес.)
Jester:
The sweetest apples grow in Sherwood,
The sheriff will never forget,
He wants to catch our friend Robin Hood,
But never he will Robin get!
(Занавес открывается, на сцене Робин Гуд и его друг монах Так.)
Tuck: So what have you decided to do, Robin?
Robin: I’m going to Nottingham fair. You and the brothers follow me. Let’s see what we can do to save John and our men from the Sheriff.
Tuck: But how do you want to enter the city? Sheriff is looking for you everywhere!
Robin: Don’t worry, I’ll invent something.
Tuck: Good bye, Robin, take care!
Robin: Meet you at the fair, fat monk!
(Робин идет по лесу и встречает нищего.)
Robin: Good morning, poor man. Where are you going?
Beggar: To Nottingham, sir. I don’t have any money on me. Look, sir, only empty pockets. May I go further by my way?
Robin: No, stay where you are. I like your clothes.
Beggar: My clothes? But they are so old and shabby! Who needs them?
Robin: I do. Put them off.
Beggar: Oh, sir, if you take my clothes, what shall I wear?
Robin: I’ll give you good money for them. Four gold coins.
Beggar: Four gold coins for these? Are you kidding? You must be a king to pay four gold coins for this rubbish. But you are not a king. Oh, I know who you are! Here, my clothes, my shoes, everything!
Robin: Wait! I don’t need everything! Pooh! Your shoes are so smelly! But here you are. Four gold coins and your new clothes.
Beggar: For me? New clothes and four gold coins? I feel like a new man!
Robin: You are a new man. And I am a poor beggar. Sorry, I must go. I should get to Nottingham quickly. Good bye and thank you!
Beggar: Thank you, good man. Thank you, Robin Hood!
(Народ собирается на площади, выходят солдаты, звучит музыка-входит шериф.)
Sheriff: Quiet! You know the law! These men are criminals! They killed the King’s deer! They must die! Who of you will come and kill them? I give forty gold coins to the man who hangs them. But remember, he must be a Saxon, because according to the law only Saxons can kill Saxons.
Robin: I’ll hang them for that money.
Sheriff: Are you a Saxon?
Robin: Ye, I am. Give me the money and I’ll hang them gladly!
Sheriff: Here is your money. Hurry up, hang them! (Барабаны.)
Robin: Stop. First I must hear their confession. It’s also a law, isn’t it, Sheriff? (Подходит к лесным братьям, стоящим в толпе с закрытыми капюшонами лицами, шепчется с ними.)
Sheriff: Come on. Perform your job quickly, beggar. I want to have my dinner.
Robin: Dinner? Some more apples for dinner, Sherif? (Достает рожок, дает сигнал, люди в толпе снимают капюшоны, набрасываются на стражу, освобождают братьев, все убегают.)
Sheriff: Catch them, why are you staying here? The city is full of Robin Hood’s men!
Jester:
Ha-ha-ha! What a day!
Robin helped them to escape!
Ha-ha-ha!All Saxons laugh!
Robin Hood is our love!
Robin: Welcome to Sherwood, brothers! We need good shooters to fight the Sherif.
Tuck: Don’t worry. We’ll help your mother. We’ll send her food and money.
Brothers: Thank you, friends. We’ve always dreamt to stay with you and to fight for all the poor!
Robin: Let me introduce you my stuff. Here are my best shooters!
(Занавес открывается, братья поют и танцуют.)
Hey-ho, brothers,
We all live in Sherwood!
With no King, with no Sheriff
Our life is very good!
Robin: So these are my brave men!
Marian: And women!
Robin: And a woman- the most beautiful woman of Sherwood forest – Maid Marian.
Marian: Thank you, Robin. Don’t be so pompous! Half of your «brothers» are women!
Robin: What do you mean, Marian?
Marian: I mean what I say: half of your brothers are ... sisters! Girls, he doesn’t believe. Let’s persuade him! Our hero! Our glorious Robin! He thinks only men can fight properly! We also want to fight for freedom and justice! We don’t like just sitting at home changing nappies and cooking!
Tuck: Cooking! Marian, I want to eat again!
Marian: Then go and cook your meal yourself!
Tuck: But you must cook for me! You are a woman!
Marian: I must? Not in this play! Have you ever seen a law saying women MUST cook? So, go and find it, then I’ll cook for you. And meanwhile you may eat this. (Дает ему яблоко.)
Robin: Stop, you two! Don’t argue. Only all together we can win over the King and the Sheriff. Let’s better sing our song!
We live in this green forest, the forest of Sherwood
We fight the rich, we help the poor with our Robin Hood!
Jetser:
And if you are in danger or needing any help,
Just say this name, just say this name,
Just say this name again!
All together: Robin Hood! Robin Hood! And life will change for good!
