Хід заняття

Орг. момент. Повідомлення теми і мети

Вчитель: Good afternoon, class. Today we’ll take part in the trial devoted to the child’s rights. Some of you would be a judge, a prosecutor, an attorney, an offender, a victim, witnesses and jury.

Judge: Встать, суд идет. This hearing is of a case of infliction to the underaged Solovjov O.M. by the local deputy Pryduvalov A.S. The word is given to the prosecutor.

Prosecutor: Mr. Pryduvalov, you are accused for the infliction of the 14-year’s-old Solovyov O.M. that happened on the February, 24, 2008. As it was adjudicated by the pre-trial investigator, this day you inspected the building of the local orphanage. Having visited all the premises, you asked the victim to wash your car and promised to pay him 20 hryvnyas. But then you were dissatisfied with his work and refused to pay. The boy protested loudly and you hurt him.

Attorney: Your honour, I consider these facts unreliable and based only on the words of the victim. My client is a very respectable person, acts as a deputy for 10 years and made a lot to this town. So how can you believe this teenager, who seeks just for money? Mr. Pryduvalov was the sponsor of this orphanage and always gave money for the summer rest of the children.

Prosecutor: We don’t judge the offender for his sponsor activity but for the infringement of the child’s rights, notably the right for rest (You made him work at his free time), the right for paid job, for health and freedom of speech. So you are accused and I ask the court for the 3 years of imprisonment to you.

Attorney: Defence asks for the 1st witness. (1st witness comes)

Judge: Please, introduce yourself.

1st witness: I’m Margarita Sergeevna Petrova, the headmistress of the orphanage. I can say that the offender is a very kind and pleasant person and he couldn’t hurt anyone. That day he visited our orphanage and was very pleased by the pupils. He even promised to find money for our little sportsmen to go to the Ukrainian swimming championship this year. But now he won’t be our sponsor anymore! (cries)

Prosecutor: So you didn’t see this case by yourself, did you?

1st witness: No, I did not. But I don’t trust the words of Solovyov, because he wants only money and fame.

Prosecutor: According to your words, the fame is to be beaten by the local authority? Ok, how can you explain the bruises on the Solovyov’s face?

1st witness: He did it by himself!

Attorney: You can not answer, this is only a suggestion.

Prosecutor: And what kind of relationship do you have with the offender?

1st witness: This is not your business!

Judge: Witness, answer the question!

1st witness: We are just old friends…

Prosecutor: But I have facts that you are closer than friends, your are lovers! So you can’t witness for him.

(gives photos to the judge)

Judge: I understand. We can’t accept your evidence. Defence, do you have other evidences?

Attorney: No, we don’t, your honour.

Judge: Prosecution?

Prosecutor: Yes, you honour. I would like to invite our witness.

2nd witness: I’m Vavilov Andrey, pupil of the 8th form of the orphanage. I saw the offender that day, he was very angry because Solovyov said a joke about him and the headmistress. And then I wondered having seen Oleg washing the car. And when he finished and didn’t get his money, he cried that he told everything to the Mr.Pryduvalov’s wife about his relations with headmistress. And then Oleg was beaten.

Attorney: Why have you followed Oleg that day?

2nd witness: I had a lot of free time because of inspection, so I just was hanging around.

Prosecutor: Why didn’t you go to the police that day?

2nd witness: I was afraid of the headmistress, she could place me to the mental institution, and I didn’t want it. But now new parent adopt me and I can tell everything. We got no vacations at summer, but the offender made us work at his summer house, build the woodshed and hayloft here. And Oleg promised to tell this too.

Prosecutor: Your honour, we checked this information, visited this summer house and found 3 boys working there. Here are their evidence. (gives papers to the judge)

Judge: Defence, would you like to ask the witness?

Attorney:The defence rests, your honour.

Judge: The judge goes to the retiring room to make a decision

Teacher: All pupils-jury argue which decision should be passed.

Judge’s decision….

History lessons


Think of three historical figures. What do you know about them? Where did you get your information from? The chances ale that you either read it somewhere or someone who read it somewhere told you about it. Did you ever think about who wrote down these facts? How can you be sure that they are true? The thing is, many historical "truths" are historical myths.

Let's take some examples. In America, 4th July is Independence Day, the most important holiday in the I American calendar, which the Americans celebrate with parades and fireworks. It was on 4th July 1776 that    Congress    approved    the    Declaration    of Independence   It was a good start. However, the struggle continued for another seven years after this, with some of the most brutal fighting in the whole war] as King George III was not willing to grant America total independence, which was the only arrangement that the American leaders would accept. So the fighting continued. The first draft of a Treaty of Peace was signed in November 1782 and in February 1783 the King officially announced that the war would soon be over. This led to the signing of the Treaty of Paris on 3rd September that same year.

Think about the discovery of America. What’s the first name that comes to mind? More than likely it's Christopher Columbus. Was America really discovered by him? He had set out to reach Asia and that's where he thought he was when he came to America. But there were many people there before him. The first ones were certainly the Native Americans, thousands of years before 1492. Where had they come from? Even the Vikings had made a number of expeditions, with Leif Eriksson landing there in around 1000 AD. Perhaps Amerigo Vespucci was the discoverer of America. After all, unlike Columbus before him, he was the first fifteenth-century explorer to realise where he was. or rather, where he definitely wasn't So, maybe the word "re-discover" is more  accurate when it comes to Columbus, if history is to give him any credit at all.

Everyone believes such historical "facts' because, like you, they got them from what they thought was a reliable source. But how can such things be written down in the first place? One of me reasons must be that history is seldom cut and dried" The events are often complicated 45 and messy. The achieving of American independence was a lengthy affair. Presumably 4th July was chosen as the date to celebrate because it was seen as more significant than (the date of the actual end of the war. Another reason is that such myths always contain a grain of truth 50 Columbus was not the first person to travel to America, but he was me first fifteenth-century explorer to go there. His "re-discovery" was, from a historical point of view, extremely significant for Europe since his voyages opened up large-scale commerce between Europe and America.

History has traditionally been written by the winners, If the conquered indigenous peoples had written the history of the discovery of the New World, it would most probably have been very different, but not necessarily SO objective: the point of view of the conquered can be just as biased as the point of view of the conqueror. But that is not the whole story. The writing of history depends not only on the "side" the writer is on, but also on the culture and attitudes of the era it is written in.

History is always subjective. So, remember: when you read history, take it with the pinch of salt.

Tongue Twisters
