T. Do you like homour and jokes? Then let’s have a rest and see the scene “A visit to the doctor” prepared by O. Sydorchuk and P. Kushnir.

Characters: Doctor Pill, patient Lame

        Doctor

I’m the doctor, Doctor Pill,

I treat patients who are ill.

         Patient

I’m the patient, oh, my head!

I’m so ill, I’m almost dead!  (Patient knocks at the door.)

         Doctor

It’s time, it’s time work to begin.

Who’s knocking there, come in, come in.

         Patient

I’m the patient, oh, my head!

I’m so ill, I’m almost dead! 

          Doctor

Do take a chair. What is your name?

        Patient

Oh, pity me! My name is Lame.

         Doctor

Oh, how you suffer! Where do you live?

You are so pale, not talkative.

           Patient

I live in Truant street, house four.

Oh, help me, I can’t stand any more!

            Doctor

Take off your scarf and let me see

Your tongue, your throat, your malady. (Doctor examines his tongue, his throat.)

 Now, do you do your morning drills?

Do you take vitamins and pills?

              Patient

I wash myself, my mouth I rinse,

I take my pills and vitamins.

             Doctor

That’s fine, that’s fine. Now let me see.

 You do a set of drills with me.

 Stand up! Hands up! Hands down!

Hands on hips! Sit down!

Stand up! Hands up! Hands at your sides!

Bend to the left! Bend to the right!

             Patient

Oh, doctor, doctor,

I cannot bend down or turn around.

Pupils: The boy isn’t ill because he takes vitamins, does morning exercises but he doesn’t want to do drills with the doctor. 

 

                 7. Reading the text “ My visit to the doctor”

a) Pre-reading activity

T. The boys acted very well. But it’s not fine when you are ill in fact. It’s really hurts when you have flue or bad cold.

b) While-reading activity

T.  While reading this text pay attention to the words and word combinations in bold type.

New words:

To fall ill, fever, to call the doctor,  to examine a patient, to stay in bed, to gargle the throat, prescription, flue

The doctor’s visit

         Steve started to fell ill on Monday morning. He was pale. He had a headache and a sore throat. Besides he was sneezing and coughing badly. His mother took his temperature. It was very high. Steve had a fever. She said, “I think you can’t go to school today.  You have to stay in bed. I’ll call the doctor.”

          Mrs Parker phoned their family doctor, Mr Johnson.

          Mr Johnson came in an hour. He examined his patient, listened to his heart and lungs, looked at his eyes and ears. Steve had a bad cold.

          The doctor said, “Steve, you have to stay in bed for a day, gargle your throat with salt water three times a day, drink hot milk with butter and hone. Here’s the prescription, Mrs Parker. I think everything will be fine in a week. Follow my advice, please. 

c) Post-reading activity

T. Answer the questions.

--Was he ill?

Did the boy go to school?

Who called to the doctor?

8. Speaking

T. I think that everybody wants to be healthy. And English and Ukrainian people wrote so many proverbs about health. So match the parts of the proverbs and give their Ukrainian equivalents

An apple a day                          makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.

Health is better                        but eat to live.

Early to bed, early to rise       than wealth.

Live not to eat                           keeps the doctor away.

9. Writing

T.   As you can see it is better to be healthy. If we are healthy, we shall be happy.

Health is very important in our life. Let’s write Rules of healthy life.

Go in for sport.

Play active games.

Eat fruit and vegetables.

Do morning exercises.

Think positively.

3. Summarizing

1. Summing up

T. With these positive words we are finishing our lesson. Be healthy! Don’t get ill. Don’t cough!

2. Home assignment
