Пословица недаром молвится

Учено-методическое пособие для организации обучения разговорной речи на уроках английского языка и во внеклассной работе.

Цель пособия – повышение интереса к английскому языку, формирование и совершенствование коммуникативной компетенции и творческой активности у учащихся

«Коммуникативная технология в обучении английскому языку»

«Коммуникативная технология в обучении разговорной речи». Актуальность данной проблемы заключается в том, что в современной школе большое внимание уделяется обучению разговору, поэтому мы сделали свой выбор именно в пользу данного аспекта технологии т.е «Коммуникативная технология в обучении разговорной речи».

Целью данной технологии является:

– обучение иноязычному общению с помощью общения;

– усвоение иноязычной культуры.

Содержание учебного материала имеет:

– речевую направленность;

– ситуативность;

– личностную ориентацию общения;

– коллективное взаимодействие;

Речевая направленность – это обучение языку через общение. Это означает практическую ориентацию урока. Научить говорить можно только говоря, слушать – слушая, читать – читая. В речевых упражнениях происходит плавное дозированное и, вместе с тем, стремительное накопление лексики и грамматики с немедленной реализацией.

Ситуативность – ролевая организация учебного процесса. Принципиально важным является отбор и организация материала на основе ситуации и проблем общения, которые интересуют учащихся каждого возраста. Желание говорить появляется у студента только в реальной или в воссозданной ситуации, затрагивающей говорящих. В качестве материала для этих упражнений могут использоваться слова, словосочетания, предложения, группы предложений, диалогические и монологические тексты . Интересно проходят упражнения по аудированию и разучиванию разговорных клише: сначала преподаватель, а затем и каждый студент задают вопросы, используя только новые разговорные фразы – остальные студенты должны ответить на вопрос, используя одну из новых разговорных фраз. Такие упражнения помогают активизировать лексику, расширить словарный запас у студентов, развивают навыки аудирования и языковую реакцию.

Личностная ориентация общения. Безликой речи не бывает, речь всегда индивидуальна. Коммуникативное обучение предполагает учет всех этих личностных характеристик, ибо только таким путем могут быть созданы условия общения: вызвана коммуникативная мотивация, обеспечена целенаправленность говорения, сформированы взаимоотношения.

Коллективное взаимодействие – такой способ организации процесса, при котором студенты активно общаются друг с другом, и условием успеха каждого являются успехи остальных.

Для решения этой задачи и с целью развития творческой активности студентов на уроках большое внимание уделяется развитию речемыслительной деятельности студентов. Развиваю у них навыки самостоятельной работы, стремлюсь к тому, чтобы студенты как можно больше говорили на уроке на английском языке так как по идее коммуникативной технологии говорению учат – говорением. Для повышения коммуникативной направленности создаю на уроках учебные ситуации близкие к естественным. Участие студентов в таких ситуациях развивает их воображение, самостоятельную творческую активность, стимулируя мотивацию обучения. В учебном процессе использую: конкурсы, ролевые игры, элементы драматизации, уроки-дискуссии; элементы метода проектов, круглые столы. На таких уроках обычно звучит живая разговорная речь, в ходе этих уроков студенты приобретают опыт речевого партнера, а к тому же они являются неотъемлемым элементом коммуникативной технологии.

Основными приемами построения уроков в целях усиления коммуникативной направленности обучения, считаю:

– не традиционность построения урока;

– использование ситуации общения;

– постановки коммуникативной задачи перед отдельными студентами или группой.

Структура работы с пословицами:

Unit 1.

Тask1. Read and translate the meaning of the proverbs using the vocabulary.

Explanatory notes:

1. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush: a sure advantage is better than an expected advantage It is better to accept something tangible, if not very valuable, at the present moment than to wait for a more valuable thing which is however beyond our reach, so far A bird in the hand is something that one already has as opposed to something one may possibly obtain, i e a bird in the bush.

2. A burnt child dreads the fire: after some bitter or painful experience one is supposed to become careful and keep away from the cause of one's troubles or sufferings.

Example. Her experience of love has been too bitter and she won’ t like to taste it again, for a burnt child dreads the fire. (Thomas and Kelly)

3. Actions speak louder than words: a person is known and judged more by his actions than by his words, however smooth or coarse the latter might appear; actions are more important than words.

Example. "Am I to say nothing?" she stammers. "Nothing! Actions speak louder than words!!" (R. Broughton)

4. A drowning man will catch at a straw: anyone in desperate circumstances tries every possible means oil escape even though he knows it is not likely to be of any teal use. To catch at a straw means to avail oneself of even the slightest chance of rescue from one's difficulties, or to gain hope from the slightest sign that may seem favorable

Example. Kate, a drowning man catches at straws, you know. I saw you waver just now. (R. Brougtiton)

5. A friend in need is a friend indeed: it is at a time of misfortune that you know your real friends.

Examples. I thank you heartily … A friend in need is a friend indeed. (W. G. Smith)

Тask 5. Find phraseological units and state what proverbs they originate from.

1) Today I am busted and almost beat. I dropped eighty per cent of my business all because he put me on his D.D. (demand draft) list. I came up here on a hunch, grabbing at a straw. (Я. Robbins)

2) She had closed the house at Hilltop and all her time she spent looking after Arthur, preparing his food, reading to him, or merely sitting in silent companionship by his bed. Strange behaviour for a woman naturally so indifferent, so apparently self-absorbed. It was perhaps an atonement, a clutching at this chance straw of expiation in the throbbing desire to prove that there was something of good in her. (A. Cronin)

3) "There really is nothing as important as giving our town dwellers decent living conditions." ─ "It's rather like going over to the enemy," muttered Michael. "Our future oughtn't to be so bound up in the towns." ─ "It will be, whatever's done. 'A bird in the hand', and such a big bird, Michael." (Galsworthy)

Unit 2

Тask1. Read and translate the meaning of the proverbs using the vocabulary.

Explanatory notes:

1. All's well that ends well: fears and anxieties are forgotten as soon as one's aim is reached.

Example: When the books were signed the vicar congratulated the husband and wife on having performed a noble, and righteous, and mutually forgiving act. "All's well that ends well," he said smiling. (Th. Hardy)

2. A rolling stone gathers no moss: a person who frequently changes his occupation does not attain a position of security, prosperity, success (just as a stone that never stays long in one place gives no chance for moss to grow on it). A person who moves around, never staying in one job, is called a rolling stone.

Example "I want to see Dan settled somewhere. 'A rolling stone gathers no moss', and at twenty-five he is still roaming about the world without a tie to hold him . (L. Alcott)"

3. Ask no questions and you'll be told no lies: one should not ask inappropriate questions that may lead to deceitful answers.

Example "What made you part from him?"

" Ask no questions and you'll be told no lies ." (Т.А. Hardy)

4. A rolling stone gathers no moss: a little effort at the right time saves much work later.

Examples:

A Stitch in Time, or Pride Prevents a Fall. (J. Laver)

We take a stitch in time that may save nine. (B. Stevenson)

5. As you make your bed, so you must lie on it:

a person must take the responsibility for, and suffer from, the results of his own unwise actions, just as a man who makes his bed badly will certainly sleep uncomfortably

Example "Stop crying," she says, harshly, "you have made your bed, and you must lie on it." (R. Broughton)

3) No one must know ─ certainly not her father, who had warned her so desperately! She had made her bed, and would have to lie on it. (J. Galsworthy)

4) I've been here twenty years myself. I always was one for sticking to a job. I always say when you get a good place, then stick there. A rolling stone gathers no moss, and it's true. (R. Wright)

Тask 5. Translate the passage into Russian. Retell it, and explain the use of proverbs.

Montanelli came slowly down the steps, the people crowding about him to kiss his hands.

"Peace be with you, my children!"

At the sound of the clear, silvery voice, the Gadfly bent his head, so that the white hair fell across his face. If only he could shrink into some corner and stop his ears to shut out, the sound! Indeed, it was more that any man should have to bear ─ to be so close, so close that he could have put out his arm and touched the dear hand.

"Will you not come under shelter, my friend?" the soft voice said. "I am afraid you are chilled."

The Gadfly's heart stood still. For a moment he was conscious of nothing but the sickening pressure of the blood that seemed as if it would tear his breast asunder; then it rushed back, tingling and burning through all his body, and he looked up. The grave, deep eyes above him grew suddenly tender with divine compassion at the sight of his face.

"Stand back a little, friends," Montanelli said, turning to the crowd; "I want to speak to him."

The people fell slowly back, whispering to each other, and the Gadfly, sitting motionless, with teeth clenched and eyes on the ground, felt the gentle touch of Montanеlli’s hand upon his shoulder.

"You have had some great trouble. Can I do anything to help you?"

The Gadfly shook his head in silence.

"Are you a pilgrim?"

"I am a miserable sinner."

The accidental similarity of Montanelli's question to the password came like a chance straw, that the Gadfly, in his desperation, caught at, answering automatically. He had begun to tremble under the soft pressure of the hand that seemed to burn upon his shoulder. (E. L. Voynich, The Gadfly)
