Етап 1. Початок заняття: організація групи, повідомлення практичних цілей заняття. – 3 хв.

Good morning, students! How are you today? I hope you are well. Is anybody absent in the group? What’s the matter with him/her? Let’s start our lesson. Today we will talk about our hobbies in daily life. I’m sure that each of you has his or her favourite hobby and during our class we’ll learn how to express ourselves when speaking about favourite activities. The tools we are going to use will be the Present Simple Tense and the Adverbs of Frequency. So today we’ll brush up our knowledge and revise their usage in the English language.

 

Етап 2. Фонетична зарядка. –  10 хв.

Before we begin to discuss our topic we shall train our tongues. We will do it with the help of jokes. You should work in pairs and ask each other the questions. To find the answer, you have to read and understand the phonetically written answers. The pictures will give you a clue and after having finished the task, match the corresponding jokes and pictures.  (Each pair of students receives a set of four jokes).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                                                                       

 

Етап 3: Ознайомлення з новою темою “Adverbs of Frequency”. – 10 хв.

We use some adverbs to describe how frequently we do an activity.

These are called adverbs of frequency and include:

The Position of the Adverb in a Sentence

• An adverb of frequency goes before a main verb (except with To Be).
• An adverb of frequency goes after the verb To Be.

N.B. We use hardly ever and never with positive, not negative verbs:

• She hardly ever goes in for sports.
• They never goes skiing.

We can also use the following expressions when we want to be more specific about the frequency:

- every day - once a month - twice a year - four times a day - every other week

My Hobby

Have you got a hobby? I have – pottery. I’ve done it since I was quite little because my uncle and aunt are potters, and whenever we went to visit them on holiday I always played on the pottery wheel.

I’ve only really become more serious about pottery since about 2008, when I decided to join an evening class. Then, last year, I bought my own potter’s wheel, so I can make pots at home now.

I’ve made lots of different things over the years. When I started, I made some very strange, heavy little bowls. But little by little, I’ve managed to make thinner bowls, and I’ve just made a set of bowls that we use for breakfast every day. I’ve also made lots of mugs. These are getting better too – the first ones were really heavy even before you put coffee in them! My neighbour’s just asked me to make a set of mugs for her, and I’ve sold quite a few to friends.

When I first started, I used to put a ball of clay on the wheel, and then I had absolutely no control over it. Sometimes it became a bowl, sometimes a plate, maybe a mug, and often I had to throw it away – it was always quite a surprise! Thankfully I have improved since then, as I can now decide what I want to make before I start making it. I have learnt to control the clay to make the shape I want. I have also started making bigger things like jugs and serving bowls, and more difficult things like teapots. I haven’t sold any teapots yet, but my kitchen is getting very full so I think I’ll need to start selling them soon!
