Игра для уроков английского языка "Эпитеты"

Игра «Эпитеты»

Трудно переоценить роль игры на уроках английского языка. Здесь представлен один из вариантов игры, которую можно использовать на уроках английского языка в старших классах.

    Для подготовки к проведению игры, подберите текст, содержащий какое-нибудь описание и соответствующий уровню ваших учеников. Удалите из текста все прилагательные, а на их место вставьте пробелы. Сделайте копии текста по количеству участников игры.

    На уроке копии раздайте и предложите игрокам заполнить пробелы подходящими по смыслу прилагательными. Когда все будут готовы, игроки зачитывают по предложению. После того, как совместная версия будут озвучена, вы читаете оригинал. В это время, участники игры отмечают в своих текстах совпадения. Побеждает игрок, угадавший наибольшее количество прилагательных.

Once a little mouse who was not on very good terms with cats like all mice, decided to give herself a treat of cheese. To do this she had to cross over to the other side of the kitchen where the table was. She knew the cheese was there because she could feel its wonderful smell. But there was a small problem. The mouse was not sure if there were any cats in the house. She certainly wouldn't like to run the risk of being eaten so she sat inside the wall near the mouse hole and listened.

It must be mentioned that our mouse was not an ordinary one. She was the sort of gifted and she had some logic. She was taught to think twice before doing something to avoid unpleasant consequences. That was why she didn't hurry.

At last she heard someone barking. The mouse thought: ''It must be a dog. Dogs don't eat mice, and cats don't usually live where dogs are. It means I can get to the cheese quite safely.'' That was absolutely logical.

But to the mouse's greatest surprise as soon as she got out the mouse hole she was attacked by a big cat and eaten in some time. The thing is that it was the cat who was barking. ''Indeed, knowing foreign languages can open new possibilities and give you a wider picture of the world,'' said the cat to himself and made off a bird's song.
