T. Good morning, students! Welcome to our lesson! How are you ?

Warm-up.

( W)

Lets precide our lesson. Have ever seen a hot air balloon?

Where have you seen?

Ok, lets imagine that we are in air balloon. Take these baloons and dream. We are all in the sky.

What do you see at this moment?

We see beautiful nature etc.

If we see a beautiful nature today’s our theme of the lesson is “Places of natural beauty”

That’s why your hometask was to prepare presentation about Kazakhstan’s reserves.

We invite the first group to the board presentating of their preparation.

Korgalzhyn State Nature Reserve
Kazakhstan reserves. The Biggest nature reserves in Kazakhstan

Korgalzhyn a wetland paradise The centuries-old culture of Kazakhstan, a wealth of attractions and unique nature charm visitors not only with their beauty but also with their uniqueness. In the very heart of Kazakhstan, 160 km northwest of Astana, awaits the Kurgalja National Preserve. Korgalzhyn National Park is the largest preserve zone in Kazakhstan, occupying an area of about 258.9 million hectares, including 198,000 hectares of wetlands.

Despite being under 3 hours from Astana, and possessing a collection of birdlife that has recently attracted a nomination for UNESCO World Heritage Site status, the Korgalzhyn area remains surprisingly unknown, even within Kazakhstan.

The vast wetland area, a combination of virgin steppe and lakes, is home to wolves, marmots and saiga. However, it is the birds, and the pink flamingo in particular, that are the real attraction.

Located at the crossroads of two migration routes, the wetlands act as a giant motorway junction service station for birds (Lake Tengiz alone has the capacity to feed 15 million birds).

On its territory there are no large trees, as this is the domain of low grasses and bushes typical for the steppe area. The Kurgaljinski lakes are rich in fish, including edible species. They are golden and argentine crucian, ide, pike, tench, perch, and roach. Lake Tengiz (which stands for 'sea' in Kazakh) is the largest in the reserve.

It is made unique by the pink flamingoes, nesting on the islands of the ancient lake. Here lives the world's furthest northern colony of these wonderful birds. They lived here even in the Paleocene Period, when the whole Tengiz-Kurgaljinski Depression was covered with the Tetis Sea.

Aksu Canyon is 15 km long and 500m deep canyon in Kazakhstan. It is situated in the north-west of the Tian Shan mountain range 200 km north-east of Tashkent. It has an alpinecharacter with nearby mountains reaching over 4000m. The Aksu-Djabagly Nature Reserve, though relatively small in area, it is rich in wildlife and included in the UNESCO world heritage site Western Tian Shan. The Aksu-Zhabagly Nature Reserve harbors 1312 vascular plants .^[3] Some of the largest genera are Astragalus, Gagea, Allium, Carex and Oxytropis. There are 44 rare plant species that are listed as endangered in the red data book of Kazakhstan,^[4] including the native wild apple (Malus sieversii), wild grape (Vitis vinifera) and several wild tulip species (e.g.. Tulipa greigii). The lower parts of the reserve are covered by semi-desert, scrub and steppe, which form a colorful carpet of geophytes in the spring. There are 44 mammal species in the Reserve that are enlisted as highly endangered in the red book of Kazakhstan.^[6] The most prominent species are the snow leopard which is, however, rarely seen. Somewhat more frequent is the Himalayan brown bear, the Tien Shan argali (Ovis ammon karelini), the Indian crested porcupine (Hystrix indica), and Menzbier's marmot.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Differentiation – how do you plan to give more support? How do you plan to challenge the more able learners?

Assessment – how are you planning to check learners’ learning?

Health and safety check

• More support can be given in the speaking activity when learners define new words, express their opinion on the matter.

• More able learners can be appraised withprovidingthem a kind of creative work to express their opinions

• Facilitate and structure discussions, check students’ understanding through procedural questions

• Through estimating written tasks

• Learners will be safely seated at a comfortable distance away from electrical outlets and cables, monitors and recorders.

• Monitor classroom space when students start moving around
