2. Announcing the plan of the lesson.

Teacher: - Pupils, today we have an unusual lesson, devoted to travelling. During our lesson we shall go to Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva. We shall speak about these cities and their most important sights. We’ll recycle such topics, as ‘been to’, ‘adjectives with –ed/-ing’ and infinitive of purpose. We’ll sing a song and do tests you’ve prepared yourselves.

Well, I think we can start our lesson.

3. Recycling - Means of transportation.

Teacher: - Who likes to travel? I think, everybody. Trips are always wonderful. However, what is the most important thing in traveling? Firstly - vehicles. Tell me, please, what means of transportation do you know? We can travel by car, by bus – what else? …

(Pupils start listing means of transportation.)

Teacher: - Which is the fastest?

Pupil x: - A plane.

Teacher: - What about the slowest?

Pupil y: - On foot, I think.

Teacher: - The most exciting?

Pupil: - For me – train.

Teacher: - Why?

Pupil: - Because it is not slow and we have time to notice everything on the way.

4. Recycling - ‘been to’.

Teacher: - Great. Now I would like you to tell me what countries you have already been to.

As for me, I’ve been to Turkey. And you? Where have you been?

Pupil x: - I traveled by plane; Pupil y:- I travelled by train (etc).

5. Recycling - ‘Adjectives with –ed/-ing’.

Teacher: - Now I would like to know your opinions about the trips. For this you will need a rule ‘–ing and –ed adjectives’. Let me remind it: –ing adjectives describe a situation, person, or thing. For example:an interesting film, a boring teacher, an excitinf film. –ed adjectives describe how people feel. For example:I’m very interested in modern art. We were bored at the end of the lesson. She’s exciting about going there.

Can you give me your own examples?

Pupil x: - An amusing story, a shocking film, an exhausting journey.

Pupil y: - A bored person, an exhausted runner, a surprised visitor.

Thank you. To check your understanding I want you to tell me – how do these people feel? (There is a picture with 5 people having different face expressions.)

Teacher: - Tell us, please, how do these people feel?

Pupils: - The first guy looks frightened. The old man looks exhausted. The girl looks surprised. The both people look excited. The last girl seems worried.

Teacher: - Well done. Now, let’s practice the rule. If you remember, I wanted you to express your feelings about the trip you had.

Let me be the first. Here is my example:

• I’ve been to Turkey. I travelled by plane. It was amazing. Igotamazed.

(Pupils express their opinions.)

6. Recycling – ‘Infinitive of purpose’.

Teacher: - Now I want you to recycle infinitive of purpose. I hope, you remember the topic. Here you see a table. It consists of 2 columns.

(This time pupils see a slide – map of Uzbekistan with three cities marked..)As you’ve noticed we have three groups – representatives of the wonderful cities – Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva, the brilliant cities of our motherland. Leaders, come here and take three pyramids each for your desks. Each group consists of 6 participants. We are going to see a brief presentation of the cities. Our pupils have prepared information about one main sight each. We have a competition today and it’s starting right now. I want to see which group can remember more today about the three cities.

Don’t forget, pupils, your main aim is not only to present your town in a better way, but also to remember as much about the other cities, as possible. The more information you remember, the more chance to win you have.

Please, our first group – Samarkand – come out to the blackboard. We’d like to listen to your presentation.

Pupil 1: - Good morning to everybody. We’d like to present Samarkand. Samarkand (also known as"Stone Fort" or "Rock Town") is the second-largest city in Uzbekistan and the capital of Samarqand Province. The city is most noted for its central position on the Silk Road between China and the West, and for being an Islamic centre for scholarly study.

Pupil 2: - Here you can see the Registan - the ancient center of the city. It is one of the most relevant examples of Islamic architecture. It consists of three separate buildings: Madrasa of Ulugh Beg, Sher-DorMadrasah andTilya-Kori Madrasah.

Pupil 5: - In my picture you can see Observatory of Ulugh Beg (1428–1429), famous grandson of Amir Temur. In 1428 he founded a three-story observatory with a gigantic marble sextant measuring 40,212 (forty thousand point two hundred and twelve) meters and with an arc length of 63 meters.

Pupil 6: - The Shah-i-Zinda Ensemble includes mausoleums and other ritual buildings of 9-14th and 19th centuries. The name Shah-i-Zinda (meaning "The living king"). The Shah-i-Zinda complex was formed over nine (from 11th till 19th) centuries and now includes more than twenty buildings.

Pupil 1: - Thank you for attention.

Teacher: - Students, who has been to Samarkand?

Pupil: - The weather was wonderful. We went there in late spring for 3 days. We stayed in a hotel with the friends of ours. We saw Registan, Gur-Emir, TheShahi-Zinda there. I liked it a lot.

Teacher: - Thank you.Well, who is the next?

8.Presentation of Bukhara.

Teacher: - Well, who is the next?

Pupil 7: - We are! Good morning to everybody. The city we’ve chosen is Bukhara. Bukhara), from the Soghdian βuxārak ("lucky place"), is the capital of the Bukhara Province (viloyat) of Uzbekistan. The nation's fifth-largest city, it has a population of 263,400 (2009 census estimate). The region around Bukhara has been inhabited for at least five millennia, and the city has existed for half that time. Located on the Silk Road, the city has long been a center of trade, scholarship, culture, and religion. The historic center of Bukhara has been listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.

Pupil 8: - The title Po-i Kalan (meaning the "Grand Foundation"), belongs to the architectural complex located at the base of the great minaret Kalân. It was built in 12-14 centuries.

Pupil 9: - Kalyan minaret. More properly, Minâra-i Kalân, (Pesian/Tajik for the "Grand Minaret"). It is made in the form of a circular-pillar brick tower, narrowing upwards. Also known as the Tower of Death, as for centuries criminals were executed by being tossed off the top.

Pupil 10: - The Ismail Samani mausoleum (9th-10th century), one of the most esteemed sights of Central Asian architecture, was built in the 9th century (between 892 and 943) as the resting-place of Ismail Samani - the founder of the Samanid dynasty.

Pupil 11: - The Ark is a massive fortress located in the city of Bukhara, Uzbekistan that was initially built and occupied around the 5th century AD. The Ark was used as a fortress until it fell to Russia in 1920. Currently, the ruins of the Ark are a tourist attraction and house museums covering its history.

Pupil 12: - Mir-i Arab Madrassah. Little is known about its origin, although its construction is ascribed to Sheikh Abdullah Yamani of Yemen, the spiritual mentor of early Shaybanids. He was in charge of donations of Ubaidollah Khan (gov. 1533-1539), devoted to construction of madrasah.

Pupil 13:- Good morning. Our city is Khiva. "Khiva - City of Minarets". Located in the rich irrigated lands of Khorezm oasis on the lower reaches of the Amudaryariver is believed to be 2500 years old. Khiva retains more than 50 historic monuments and 250 old houses, mostly dating from the 18th or the 19th centuries.

Pupil 14:- Khiva is split into two parts – Dichan Kala and Itchan Kala. The outer town, called Dichan Kala, was formerly protected by a wall with 11 gates. Present-day crenellated walls date back to the late 17th century and attain the height of 10 meters.

Pupil 15:- Khiva - a unique city, rightfully claiming the title of "the seventh wonder of the world", thanks to its authentic atmosphere of the 'era of the beginning of time. " Most of the city of Khiva is similar to the open-air museum. And the nucleus of this museum - castle Itchan Kala. It is inside this fortress concentrated all the architectural masterpieces of Khiva.

Pupil 16:- In my picture I have the old town of Khiva. It retains more than 50 historic monuments and 250 old houses, mostly dating from the 18th or the 19thcenturies. The most well-known sight here is Abdulla Khan Madrasah (1855). It was built by Abdulla Khan's mother in 1855 in honor of MuradInaq's son who had been killed at the age of 17 in the fight against Turkmen yomuds.

Pupil 17:- One curious fact draws people's attention - the five Khiva's minarets are erected on the same line about 200 meters far from each other. Minaret of Djuma-Mosque is in the center of that line. It's 6.2 meters in diameter at the basis and 32.5 meters high.

Pupil 18:- "Khiva - Minaret KaltarMinar" (1855). A magnificent large tower in the central city square also kown as the Guyokminar ("green minaret"). It is the only minaret in the world entirely covered by a set of glazed bricks and majolica. It wasn’t finished as you see because of the khan death.
