(Slide 2)

III. Warming up

T: Look at the places where people can have a good rest on holidays. Tell where would you like to go for holidays? (Slide 3)

S1: I'd like to go for holidays to some exotic places, because I like to taste exotic food.

S2: And I would like to go to Yalta, because I dream to see the fabulous castle "The Swallow Nest".

S3: I'd like to go to the Carpathian Mountains, because I dream about going up the Hoverla and watch the incredible view.

S4: I'd love to go to Crete. I have just read about it and want to see the ancient city of Knossos.

S5: I would like to go to Turkey, because there are lots of fantastic beaches there…..

IV. Listening

T: Thank you for your ideas. Now we are going to listen to the dialogue of two girls about holidays in Malta. Your task is to write down the adjectives from these dialogues, which are used with the following nouns: Malta, hotel, weather, beaches, and food. (Slide 4)

(Students listen to the dialogue for the first time and work on the cards)

T: Let's check up your answers. (Slide 4)

S1: Malta is fantastic.

S2: The hotel is beautiful.

S3: The weather is warm and sunny.

S4: The beaches are really gorgeous.

S5: The food is delicious.

T: You have coped with this task very easy. So try to answer these questions about Malta. What is Malta like? Where will the girls stay? What is the weather like there? Are there nice beaches? What about the food? (Slide 5)

(Students listen to the dialogue for the second time and work on the cards)

V. Pair works. Dialogical speech

T: And now act out a similar dialogue trying to persuade your partner to go on holidays with you. (See two previous exercises)

S1: How about the food?

S2: Oh, it's delicious - and there's a great variety to choose from.

S1: It sounds perfect. I'd love to come.

VI. Grammar review

T: Well done! Then tell what did you do while you were on holidays? Read the sentences and identify the tenses in bold. Then match them with the tense description. (Slide 6)

S1: The first sentence is in Past Simple. It is an action which happened in the past at the definite moment

S2: The second sentence is in Past Continuous. It is longer past action which was interrupted by the shorter one.

S3: The third sentence is in Present Perfect Continuous. It is an action which started in the past and lasted for some time.

S4: The fourth sentence is in Present Perfect. It is past action having visible results in the present.

VII. Writing. Grammar practice

(Pupils do the task on the cards)

T: Here are some more sentences for you. Test yourself and your neighbour will be your teacher. (Slide 8)

(Pupils write the sentences on the cards then exchange in pairs and check up)

VIII. Reading

T: Thanks for your answers. I'm proud of you. That's why I propose you to "travel in Vicky's letter" to the capital of Spain - Madrid. If you don't know it is a very beautiful city with lots of places to visit:

the Plaza Monumental - a large city stadium, where bullfights take place

the Prado Museum - one of the biggest museums in the world

Paella - traditional food in Spain, a dish made of shellfish and vegetables. (Slide 9)

P3: She tried Paella at a restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was excellent.

IX. Group work. Writing a letter

T: Would you like to go for holidays to Madrid? Probably, you would. But first in groups write the letter about some places you were in on holidays. Be attentive, while writing the letter describing your stay at a holiday resort, you should talk about the place,

accommodation, the weather, sights you have visited, activities you have been doing, the food, any good or bad experience you have had. Organize your thoughts in paragraphs. Use the plan. (Slide 11)

(Pupils work in small groups, and then present the letters in the class)

Group 1: Write about your visit to Paris (the Eiffel Tower, the Mona Lisa, frog's legs)

Group 2: Write about your visit to London (the Tower of London, the Big Ben, traditional English tea with milk)

Group 3: Write about your visit to Egypt (the Cairo Tower, pyramids, the Sphinx, exotic food)

Group 4: Write about your visit to Turkey (the Blue Tower, gorgeous beaches, Bоrek- пиріжки з сиром та шпинатом)

Dear, Ann,

How are you? I'm writing to you from Paris. I arrived 4 days ago with my friends.

We are staying in a wonderful hotel near the river. The weather is really hot and sunny.

We have been doing a lot of sightseeing. Yesterday we went up to the top of the Eiffel Tower. We also visited the Louvre and saw the Mona Lisa.

Last night I tried a traditional French dish - frogs' legs; it was tasty. While we were eating somebody stole my camera. Now I must buy a new one.

See you when I get back.

Love,

Helen.

X. Home assignment

T: Thank you for your letters. They were really very interesting. Today you worked in groups. And at home you'll have an opportunity to write a letter about your real holidays yourself. Don't forget to put it into the envelope and write the address.

XI. Summing up. Marking

T: In the Koran there is such a line "Bread feeds the body, indeed, but flowers feed also the soul and brain." So, tell can you taste the seeds? Which cloud are you on?

Dear, Angie,

I am writing to you from Madrid. My family and I came here on holidays ten days ago.

We are staying in a fabulous hotel in the city centre. So far, the weather has been fine.

We have been doing a lot of sightseeing. We have already been to the Plaza Monumental and a large city stadium. However, we haven't been to the Prado Museum yet.

Well, I promise to sent you some photos.

Love,

Vicky
