Ход урока

The beginning of the lesson.

T: Good morning, dear pupils!

Today we are going to continue our talk about ecology, ecological problems, the influence of a man on the environment, the importance of keeping our nature clean. You will find out how other people protect the environment and wildlife and think of the ways you can protect the environment.

1. Evocation

( The teacher draws a cluster on the board)

Which words are associated with the word "ecology"?

Ecology

Look at the pictures and say what they are about? (Presenting thematic pictures)

answer the questions.

T:

What is the current situation with the forests/rivers/air?

What happens in our country?

What ecological problems are the most important in our region?

Do you believe that our environment is in danger? Why/why not?

Do you agree that our nature is dangerously polluted? Why?/ Why not?

Do you agree that because of land, air, and water pollution our plants and animals are dying? Why/Why not?

Why do you think our environment is polluted?

Do you find that pollution is a very serious problem nowadays? Why?/Why not?

Why can't fish live in rivers?

Why are the birds, animals and the wildlife in danger?

Do you think our planet needs protection? Why?

II. Realization of meaning

T: Yes, you are quite right. The ecological situation is very serious in our country.

Now I want you to see the presentation about ecological problems. Be ready to answer my questions.

1. Many animals are disappearing nowadays. People cut down trees and many animals lose their homes.

2. Plants and factories send smoke into the atmosphere. The results are changing of climate and global warming.

3. We have a problem with dirty air too. People can't breathe in big cities because the air isn't fresh.

4. Water is very important for us and without drinkable water we'll die. Different plants make water dirty. People can't drink this water and animals die in this water.

5. People leave rubbish at the seaside too. It is also very bad.

6.The result is very sad.

T: What do you think people should do to protect our nature?

Example: We must(not)…

P-s:

1. We must protect our nature and animals from disappearing.

2. We must keep water clean and mustn't leave rubbish on the roads.

3. We must keep air fresh and mustn't send smoke to the air.

4. We must think about our atmosphere and global warming.

In Britain there are a lot of people who think about the future of our planet. Your home task was to find out what Nick does to help the Earth? Please, say if it is true or false.

I think there are a lot of ways we can help to save the Earth. For example, we can reduce land pollution. One way is to remember the three R's (to reuse, to reduce, to recycle). I save plastic food containers. You can make good water toys from them. Before I buy something, I ask myself the following questions: "Can I recycle it?" If I cannot I try not to buy it in order not to spoil the environment.

I try to help the planet. I've asked my mum to help me to make a protecting area for birds and other wild animals. We have planted trees. We've also made a pond to help frogs. I want to be the kid who saves the Earth!

Now, please, find out if these statements are true or false according to the text.

1-Nick thinks that there are not many ways we can help the Earth.

2- Nick tries to reduce air pollution.

3- Nick reuses plastic containers to reduce land pollution.

4- The boy is indifferent to the planet.

5- Nick takes care of the environment and wildlife.

T: Now I want you to express your opinion to the question "How to be friendly to the environment?" What does it mean? Organize a role play according to the technology "RAFT" ("Role, Audience, Form, Topic"). Divide into groups and choose roles. (scientists, ecologists, .)

P1: I help the world. The problem of ecology is important in our country. Our nature is in danger. There many ecological problems. I never pollute nature. I don't leave rubbish at the seaside.
