THE PROCEDURE

I. LEAD IN

1. Warm-up

T: Good morning, boys and girls! Nice to meet you.

Ps: Nice to meet you too!

T: Do you hear? Somebody is knocking at the door! Who is it?

Alice: Good morning kids! Do you know me? Right you are, I am Alice from Wonderland. I came to invite you to visit a new shopping center! Look at the photo of it. It is called "London". Do you know why this shopping center has such name?

P1: Because it is as big as London city?

P2: Maybe because they speak English?

Alice: Quite right. Because sellers and buyers speak only English in this shopping center. You can speak English too, can't you? It means that you can visit it. Do you want to visit "London" shopping center? Ok. It is far from your school and we shall travel there by magic bus (shows a bus).

2. The aim of the lesson

T: So, we are going to visit a big shopping center today. But before travelling tell our beautiful guest:

• Where do you live?

• Do you live in a house or in a flat?

• What floor is your flat on?

• What people live in your neighbourhood?

We know a poem about people in our street. Who can recite it?

All the people in our street

Are people that I like to meet.

I take a walk and say "Hello!"

To all the people that I know.

Some are happy, some are gay,

Some just look the other way.

• What shops are there in your neighbourhood?

• What kind of shop is "Kalach"?

• Do you go shopping?

• What do you usually buy?

Let's remember a poem about apples.

Apples are sour,

Apples are sweet,

Apples are juicy

And nice to eat.

T: Do you like doing shopping? Our pets like doing shopping too. Look at these funny animals - a Bear and a Bunny. Guess what? They also go shopping. Let's listen to a poem about them.

A bear and bunny

Have much money.

They go to the shop for carrots and honey.

When a bear and a bunny

Ask for carrots and honey

The man in the shop says,

"Where is your money?"

How strange and funny,

They really have money.

That's how they buy

Their carrots and honey.
