Teacher:Hello, my friends. We continue studying theme “Tale time” and talking about Irish Literature, its myths, legends and folk tales. And I’m going to introduce a very famous Irish writer - Oscar Wilde and his “The Centerville Ghost” later. Besides, we’ll make a parallel to Russian folk tales and continue working with our project. And, of cause, while doing all these things we’re training our speaking, writing and reading skills.

Now open your books on page 21. Do you remember the text we read at our last lesson? Let’s check by answering my questions.

Ireland has a lot of stories. What groups do they belong to?

Students:myths and legends and folk tales.

Teacher:What are myths and stories about?

Students:Giants, saints, warriors and kings.

Teacher:Can you give me a name of a character from Irish myth or legend.

Students: Finn Mac Cumhal.

Teacher:What is he famous for?

Students:He and his warriors protected The High Kings of Ireland.

Teacher:And what are the most popular characters of Irish folk tales.

Students:Fairies, elves, leprechauns, etc.

Teacher:Will you tell me about leprechaun?

Students:It’s name means “small body”, it makes shoes and has a crock filled with gold. If you catch it ? it must tell you where its treasure is.

Teacher:Yes, you’re right. But imagine you meet a person from Ireland, England or Wales. He or she isn’t interested in stories of his or her country and starts asking questions about the character from folk tales of your country. So we should be ready to give such information. We have already known English equivalents of Russian characters. Here are some of them (on the screen). But we should also be able to tell something about them. By the way, it was your home task to write a paragraph about Russian folk tale character for our project. Ivan Dubrovin has even made a presentation which we’re going to see. Listen to his report and ask him questions.

Ivan Dubrovin:is presenting his story about Zmey Gorynych

Students:are asking questions

Now, let’s add some more descriptions to our project. We’ll divide the class into three groups. Each group will get a picture of a Russian folk tale character. You should write what your character looks like, what is it like, where it lives and what it usually does. The group with the best story wins.

Students:are discussing, writing down their ideas and then reading.

Teacher:Good for you. We’ll add your descriptions to our project. But I’d like to remind that we’re talking about Irish literature. And one of the well-known Irish writer is Oscar Wilde. Open your books on page 23 and read about him.

Students:are reading the paragraph about Oscar Wilde.

Teacher:I’m sure you know about his tale “The Centerville Ghost” in which a young girl save the soul of poor ghost. If you don’t understand what I mean the video will help you.

Students are watching the video fragment.

Teacher:Now you really know what we are going to talk about. Let’s read an extract from the tale and complete the sentences in exercise 3.

Now we know a little about Irish myths, legends, folk stories  and writers. But we are also very proud of Russian folk tales and writers and poets.

Your home task is to write about Russian writer or poet, for example, Pushkin.

You’ve worked hard today. Thank you and goodbye
