Teacher: Good morning, children! Glad to see you!

Pupils: Good morning, teacher! Glad to see you too!

 

Teacher: Today we have got the final lesson on the topic “Sports”. We shall revise the material of our previous lessons and speak about sports in our life. We shall find out what sports the British, Americans and Ukrainians like or maybe dislike.

 

Thousands years ago ancient Greeks said: “A sound mind is in a sound body.”

And now look at the motto and explain, please, the meaning of this proverb and give the Ukrainian equivalent.

 

P: If you want to be healthy you must go in for sports. Ukrainian equivalent of this proverb is “У здоровому тілі – здоровий дух”

 

Teacher: Millions of people who go in for sports know from their own experience that this famous saying is true.

At the same time a great number of people don’t go in for sports. Some of them realize that sport is useful but prefer watching sport on TV to going in for it themselves.

And what about you?  Do you want to become real sportsmen?

But children they must have certain qualities f character to achieve good results in sport.

Today we shall know what a real sportsman should be. Let’s do it with the help of different exercises at our today’s lesson. After doing each exercise you will know the adjective that characterizes a real sportsman.  

We’ll pyramid them after each task in order to reach the top, to become a real sportsman.

Is it interesting for you? Let’s go.

There are a lot of proverbs and sayings on the topic  “Sport”. Do you know them?  Give the Ukrainian equivalents to them.

 

• P1: Quicker! Higher! Stronger!

(Швидше! Вище! Сильніше!)

• P2: Fortune favours the brave.

(Де відвага, там і перемога.)

• P3: It is above all to take part in, not to win.

(Головне – участь, а не перемога)

• P4: If at first you don’t succeed, try again.

(Вперше не вдалося – спробуй ще раз)

• P5: The best of the sport is to do the deed and say nothing.

(Найкраще заняття – робити мовчки справу)

• P6: In sports in journeys men are known.

                               (Люди пізнаються у змаганнях і мандрах)

Teacher: That's great! I see you know many English proverbs.

You tried a lot and I see you have a great desire to reach the top. So the real sportsman should be “ambitious”. It’s our first stage of our pyramid.

But what do you think , is it enough to be a real sportsman?

That’s why let’s do the next exercise.
