-Dear children! What is the weather like in London? It is foggy and rainy! And I'm sure you know that London is situated on the bank of the Thames.

-Let's listen to the poem about the Thames and the nature in London in autumn.

SYMPHONY IN YELLOW

(by O. Wilde)

An omnibus across the bridge

Crawls like a yellow butterfly,

And, here and there, a passer-by

Shows like a little restless midge.

Big barges full of yellow hay

Are moved against the shadowy wharf.

And, like a yellow silcen scarf,

The thick fog hangs along the quay.

The yellow leaves begin to fade

And flutter from the temple elms,

And at my feet the pale green Thames.

Lies like a rod of rippled jade.

-Pupils read the transcription of the following words:

Canada the United States

Spain the South of England

Great Britain the North Africa the Mediterranean

the Pacific (ocean)

the Indian (ocean)

the (English) Channel

the Mediterranean (sea)

the North sea

the Panama Canal
