Подробности урока


In this lesson we will use improve your English by reading a classic English children's book. You can choose from :
'The Secret Garden', written by Frances Hodgson Burnett in 1911. 
'Alice in Wonderland', written by Lewis Carroll in 1865. 
 
Although both books are over 100 years old, they remain very popular among children & adults. 
 
(I will provide a copy of the text for you).
 
We can use these book in a relaxed and enjoyable way to improve all aspects of English for intermediate and advanced levels. 
 
Here are some of the possibilities for how you might wish to use this lesson time:
 
1) I can read aloud, and you can simply enjoy listening to the story.
2) I can read aloud and you can repeat after me to practice rhythm, intonation and pronunciation.
3) You can read aloud to practice your reading & speaking confidence
4) You can read a chapter in your own time and then use the lesson time to discuss any new and unfamiliar vocabulary and grammar. 
 
Any approach to reading this book will be beneficial, we do not have to stick to one way and I will be guided by what you feel is most helpful in each lesson. 
 
This lesson pack over a 7 day period is offered at a substantial discount because a higher frequency is particularly beneficial when reading a novel. 
 
Here is a short extract of each one, to give you an idea of the reading level:
 
THE SECRET GARDEN: "During the confusion and bewilderment of the second day Mary hid herself in the nursery and was forgotten by every one. Nobody thought of her, nobody wanted her, and strange things happened of which she knew nothing. Mary alternately cried and slept through the hours. She only knew that people were ill and that she heard mysterious and frightening sounds. Once she crept into the dining-room and found it empty, though a partly finished meal was on the table and chairs and plates looked as if they had been hastily pushed back when the diners rose suddenly for some reason. The child ate some fruit and biscuits, and being thirsty she drank a glass of wine which stood nearly filled. It was sweet, and she did not know how strong it was. Very soon it made her intensely drowsy, and she went back to her nursery and shut herself in again, frightened by cries she heard in the huts and by the hurrying sound of feet. The wine made her so sleepy that she could scarcely keep her eyes open and she lay down on her bed and knew nothing more for a long time."

ALICE IN WONDERLAND: "There was nothing so very remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so very much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, 'Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!' (when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural); but when the Rabbit actually took a watch out of its waistcoat-pocket, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge."
