The motto of the lesson: ’’Stick to the highest values of life, learn your duties and you will be a real citizen of your native land.”

II .Phonetic drills(1 min).(listening to the tape-recorder).

Tell me your name again, please.

Tell me your name.

Tell me your first name.

Tell me your last name.

Spell me your name for me, please.

Spell your name.

Pronounce your name for me, please.

Say it again.

What a beautiful name, what a lovely name.

T: The people say: Make a name for oneself

We can speak about the personality only then, when we learn about her deeds and her moral values. So, what are they these moral values? What is life? What do we live for? People have been asking these questions since times immemorial and each generation tries to find the keys to them. Now have round table talk.

III.Warm up.(7 min) What are your values of life? (using spider gram)

The students’ speech.

P.1: All of us have different values of life. Mine are love, happiness, health and friendship I cannot say what is more important and what is less. They are correlated: one cannot exist without the other. You cannot be happy without love – be it love of a person, parents, friends or Motherland. Love makes our life complete and full of sense.

P.2: In my opinion to live means to love and to love means eternal sacrifice.

Love is a stream of living water that I drink every day and need it always. Love is the sun that gives me light on my daily road. Love is the wind that gives me power to sail along the river of life.

P.3: I suppose that it is not easy to love. To love means to unite when the whole world splits into thousand parts. In love one gives hand to another. In love man marries a woman and brings up children. In love people make their homes. In love people are beautiful. I am sure. They change and make other happy.

P.4: Let me admit that love is the highest value in the family. It should be cared, cherished, grown carefully and with patience. Love is the beginning and the end, it’s life itself.

P.5: It should be pointed out that love adds happiness and health. Good health is great blessing. Lack of health deprives our life of its vividness “Good health is above wealth” says an English proverb. Even having money you cannot buy it. That’s why people must do everything possible to be healthy.

P.6: None will deny that happiness is the value of life. I cannot claim that I know what happiness is. All I can tell you is that when you are happy you feel it with all your heart. When you are happy you always seem to lack worlds. You are not walking – you are flying, you are like the sun, the sky, the flowers.

P. 7: You are quite right. The trees are greener, the stars shine brighter, the moon is kinder. You feel like everything goes right as it should be if you are happy.

P.8: To my mind we are happy when we love, are kind and tolerant to people around us, make other happy and have something to give them.

P.9: It’s common knowledge that we are happy when we have beautiful friends. It is necessary to say that it is impossible to live without friends. The more friends we have the safer and happier we are. No wonder, the friends always help us, they support us, give good advice.

P.10: I consider that real friendship is possible only when people respect and trust each other, help each other in trouble, and share their joys and sorrows. It is not in vain that English people say: “A good friend is the sun in winter”, “A friend in need is a friend indeed”.

P.11: Speaking about values of life, I’d like to mention that we cannot buy them for money. You will probably ask me: “Don’t you need money at all?” Well, I need it only to buy clothes, food and lead a decent life. But we shouldn’t make money the object of our adoration. We cannot buy with it such eternal things as love, happiness, success. You cannot make other people love, respect with the help of money.

P.12: I’m sure that the most important thing to us is to find real values of life while being young and stick to them throughout our lives.

Expert:

Nobody on earth is perfect, we are no exception. We’re just human beings with many drawbacks, faults and we must try to get rid of them.

We must fight against cruelty and violence. We should forget rude words, avoid gossiping, judging, enviousness and jealousy.

Everybody must have a strong will and desire to improve himself, try to become better. May success succeed you in this.

Expert. I want to dwell on the main problems of the young people .They are eager to get a good education and well- paid jobs .They want to take a confident stand in life and show their self-realization. Among the problems of the youth are : low personal income, lack of working places. That’s why the young people try to hold more than one job, make things for sale, render paid services to the population, start trading business, go abroad to earn for living. Lets hope that our Government will help the young people to overcome all difficulties .
