^ Ход урока:
I Организационный момент. (2 мин.)
Good morning, boys and girls! How are you getting on? I’m glad that you are fine.

Today we’re going to go on excursions to different parts of our planet. Imagine, that you start our journey to some mystic places on the earth. Look at the pictures and guess what places are they and where they are located. Which means of transport do you use travelling there from our city? We will try to discover some mystic places on our planet at the lesson.

Teacher: Which means of transport do you use while travelling?

Student1: I prefer travelling by airplane. You can travel long distances easily and it’s fun to fly.

Student2: As for me, I like travelling by train because you can see beautiful landscapes from the windows and enjoy nature. It’s comfortable to travel by plane and you have a good chance to meet new people and friends.

Student3: I think that the best way to travel is travelling by ship. You can relax and do a lot of interesting and useful activities on board a ship and see new cities and wonderful places.

^ II Речевая зарядка. (3 мин.)

The Earth is the planet full of mysteries. What do you know about these places? Let’s start our travel to such places.

Look at the pictures and tell me what you know about them. What makes these places mysterious?

Student1: These places are mysterious because they contain the remains of lost civilizations, they have strange buildings, unusual statues or temples.

Примерные ответы учащихся:

^ Easter Island: Roggeveen noticed that the island had very few trees or animals: no one knew why the stone statues had been built or how the stone was carved and transported: may be climate change is responsible for changing the island - no one knows exactly.

Kailasa Temple: the surface of the rock is covered with symbols and figures.

^ Machu Picchu: Known as “The Lost City of the Incas”, invisible from below, no one knows when the life in this city ended, it was forgotten until 1911. It hasn’t been destroyed unlike many other Inca ruins. It may have once been a royal residence: everything is made perfectly from dry stone. According to legends, the mountain has magical properties.

Delphi: It was a home of The Oracle, mysterious force said to be the spirit of the god Apollo that could apparently tell the future, some people say the Oracle is still there.

Примерные ответы учащихся:
Student A: I’d like to visit Machu Picchu.
Student B: Why’s that?

.

-Which place would you like to visit?
- I think I’d like to visit Delphi. I’ve never been to Greece. If I went there, I could ask the Oracle a few questions!
Student C: What do you think about mystic places? Would you like to see one of them?

Student D: I think mystic places are very exciting. They make our life more interesting and ch places keep us alive and in search of knowledge. I’d like to see Easter Island, because it’s a fantastic place to explore and investigate. I would like to take photos of stone statues and to learn more about this place.
^ VIII. Monologues of the students.
Student 1: Easter Island is a beautiful and mysterious place, which is located in the Pacific Ocean. There was something unusual on this island, a Dutch explorer, Jacob Roggeveen, noticed. The island had very few trees or animals; there were only a few thousand people, who lived there. Jacob Roggeveen noticed that there were 887 magnificent stone statues standing proudly all over the island. These statues are called “moai”, they weigh about 80 tonnes. There is no information about how they were built and were carved and transported at least 14 miles across the island. There are two versions on this issue. One theory is that a great civilization built the statues and cut down the trees to transport them and when the trees were gone, the animals died out and so did the people. Another theory is that climate change affected the island and its people.
Student 2: Delphi is one of the most amazing archeological sites in Greece. It was thought to be the centre of the known world. It was also a spiritual centre for several thousand years, because it was the home of the Oracle. He predicted the future and answered people’s questions. Many of the ruins that you can see today, including the Temple of Apollo, the treasures, the gymnasium, the stadium and the theatre date back to the 5th and 6th centuries BC. Some people say that the Oracle is still there, and if you listen carefully enough, you may hear it. Etc.
