Let’s start our lesson.
II. Targeting (1 min.):
T.: The theme of our lesson today runs as following “Is it easy to be a teenager?”
We will speak about different sides of teenagers’ life, concerns and problems you
have. We will speak about teenage free-time activities. We will act out

nowadays. First, let’s recollect the hobbies that we discussed 2 or 3 lessons ago.
Look at the screen.

previous lesson;
4. Speaking activity: Who is a teenager? What is it like to be a teenager? What
problems do teenagers face?
IV. Checking the homework (10 min.):
Before checking your homework I want you to revise the table that contains the
facts of 1 day from the life of American teens. So look at the screen and read the
information… It’s time to present your projects. Your task was to find out about
teenage problems in our country. You have done it in pairs, i.e. in groups of two.
Group 1 presents a slide-show;
Group 2 presents a poster.
V. Presentation of new lexical units: average, steady, in fact, part-time job,
queue, pocket money, religion, filling, non-smoker (12 min.)
1. Studying the new words: average - средний, steady - постоянный, in
fact - действительно, part-time job – временная работа, queue -
очередь, pocket money – карманные деньги, religion - религия, filling
– зубная пломба, non-smoker – некурящий.
This time we shall read the text and get acquainted with new facts and figures
about British teens. First of all, we need to study the unfamiliar words from this
text. Look at the board and repeat after me. Now open your textbooks at page 198
and find the sentences with these words in the text “British Teenagers”. Read them
and translate.
2. Individual work: dividing the text into 4 passages and reading them
loudly by the wall;
3. Pair work: retelling each other their passages and writing down the main
facts they have read and heard about;
4. Exchanging the partners and sharing the whole information;
5. Group-work: summarizing the facts, preparing a poster and presenting
their work.
VI. Drilling (8 min.):
1. Revision of the grammar (much/many): working with the cards;
2. Role-playing the press-conference:
We are going to play a little. Imagine that we are at the press-conference.
One of you will be an interviewee, i.e. a person who answers the journalists’
questions. The rest will be journalists. You are to ask questions about British
teenagers. The interviewee must be ready to answer them. Is everything clear?
3. Pair-work: asking each other the questions about the teens of
Kazakhstan.

British Teenagers
The average British teenager watches a lot of television (19,5 hours a
week).
A lot of parents think teenagers are lazy. But in fact 57 % get up before

they only have a bath or a shower four times a week.
A lot of British teenagers have a steady girlfriend or boyfriend (37%). But
20% never go out with a person of the opposite sex.
Young people in Britain don’t get much pocket money (only 2 pound and
95 pence a week on average). But many of them have a part-time job. There
aren’t many cinemas left in Britain today because a lot of people prefer to watch
