Комментарий: Итоговый урок – ролевые дебаты является обобщением изученного материала по темам “Chores; What did life use to be; Jobs”.

Цель дебатов: обсудить проблему с разных сторон и прийти к общему мнению.

ВАЖНО: Учитель перед началом дебатов обязательно оговаривает критерии оценки деятельность обучающихся на уроке: оценивается их спонтанная речь и аргументированность их высказываний, и НЕ ОЦЕНИВАЕТСЯ грамматика. Важно дать детям понять, что основная их цель – говорить.

Примерный ход урока:

Hosts: Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. We are glad to welcome you on our talk show. Today we discuss a very acute problem – change of social roles. Today we invited professor Sam Blake to comment on this problem …

Участник выступает в соответствие с ролевой карточкой, другие участники и ведущие в праве задавать вопросы.

Ведущие предлагают высказаться следующему участнику.

Далее ведущие задают вопросы другим участникам, регулируют дискуссию.

По истечению времени ведущие подводят итоги обсуждения.

Выводы по уроку: Данный тип урока проводился в 7 классах впервые. Сложности: не все обучающиеся могли четко аргументировать свою точку зрения; иногда обучающиеся сменяли тему спора; типичные грамматические ошибки: отсутствие окончания –s у глаголов 3 л. ед.ч., неверная форма множественного числа (childrenS; womAn; womanS), отсутствие вспомогательных глаголов при построении отрицательных и вопросительных предложений. Положительные стороны: слабые обучающиеся смогли проявить себя, начали говорить и чувствовали себя свободнее, обучающиеся вели живую беседу, смогли применить изученную лексику на практике.
