Грамматическая игра по станциям с использованием карточек

Цель игры: закрепление и систематизация грамматического материала

Реквизиты:разрезанные карточки из пособия «Грамматика английского языка».

Ход игры: группа учеников делится на команды по 2 человека. На доске пишутся имена игроков. На партах раскладываются карточки. Мы называем их «станции». За каждую «станцию» дети получают 1 балл, если все выполнено верно, и 0.5 балла, если допущена ошибка. Баллы учащиеся сами фиксируют на доске. В конце занятия выявляются победители.

Кроме закрепления грамматического материала, учащиеся учатся сотрудничать друг с другом, работать в команде, брать на себя ответственность.

Лексическая игра «SHOW ME PLEASE…»

Цель игры: отработка изученной лексики.

Ход игры: учащиеся выходят на свободное место в классе. Педагог говорит: «Show me please a cat/ play hockey/tall/ bad /etc.» (список слов готовится заранее). Ученики «показывают» эти слова с помощью мимики, жестов и голоса. Получается очень интересно и весело!

Игра «ШПИОНЫ»

Цель игры: концентрация внимания на чтении материала в книге.

Ход игры: перед прочтением материала педагог говорит: «Сейчас мы все превращаемся в шпионов. Посмотрите в свои шпионские книги и следите за главным шпионом, т.е. за мной». Педагог читает то, что написано в учебнике (иногда разными голосами). Затем просит продолжить чтение учащихся, говоря фразу: «Читайте, шпион Коля!» Дети в восторге! Они всегда следят и ждут, когда их спросят.

Игра «WARM/COLD»

Цель игры: закрепить изученные стихотворения или песенки.

Ход игры: водящий выходит из класса. В это время в классе прячется игрушка. Участники договариваются, какое произведение будут исполнять, пока водящий ищет игрушку. Приглашается ведущий. Педагог говорит: «You are looking for a dog/cat etc.» Участники начинают петь или читать стихотворение, повышая свои голоса, если ведущий приближается к спрятанной игрушке и понижая, если он от нее отдаляется.

holiday   Flag Day On June 14, 1777, the new United States Congress proposed that the country create its own national flag to replace the former British Union Jack. In August 1949 President Harry S. Truman proclaimed June 14 as Flag Day in all states.   Independence Day Often simply called “the Fourth of July”, this holiday celebrates the day (July 4, 1776) on which the Continental Congress ratified the Declaration of Independence, which proclaimed freedom from the British monarch King George 3, who had up to that time rued the 13 American colonies.   Memorial Day The first Memorial Day dates back to the time following the Civil War. In 1866 residents and veterans of Waterloo, New York, agreed to close their shops and business on May 5 in order to decorate the graves and honour the memory of the many soldiers buried in the local cemetery. This is why the holiday was originally called Decoration Day. In 1882 the name was changed to memorial Day, and its focus was broadened to include soldiers who had died in previous wars.   Thanksgiving Day It all started with the Pilgrims. In the autumn of 1621, the harvest was so good that the Pilgrims found themselves with enough food to put away for the winter. The settlers decided to celebrate the event and thank God for the success of their harvest. Today, the 4th Thursday in November is the biggest travel day in America and more people fly, drive and take trains to be with their families.     May Day May Day was not widely celebrated in the United States during its early years, because the Puritans disapproved of frivolous festivals. However, in certain regions of the country, particularly where later English immigrates settled, May Day still looks much the same as in rural England, complete with May baskets full of flowers, a Maypole, and a May Queen.   Labor day The first Labor Day parade was held in New York City in 18882. Subsequently the idea spread, and various states, beginning with Oregon in 1887, declared the first Monday of September as a legal holiday. Finally, the United State Congress declared it a national holiday on June 28, 1894.
