PREFACE

Teaching and monitoring programs in English grammar are intended for university students of non-linguistic faculties. The main goal of the manual is the practical development or repetition of grammatical models of the English language in comparison with the grammatical norms of the Russian language to ensure the formation of students' educational activities in the process of performing grammatical actions.

The training program /A/ provides an algorithm for grammatical phenomena, which makes it possible to extremely formalize the presentation of the material, activate the independent work of students and, using the control program /B/, implement feedback. The tasks are carried out mainly by compiling matrices - choosing the correct correspondences, translation equivalents or analogues.

Working on material of the receptive /A/ and reproductive /B/ types allows the student to assess the degree of perception and assimilation of a grammatical phenomenon by checking his answer using the key. Assignments can be completed through independent / classroom or extracurricular /, pair and group work.

Steps to complete the work: read program A, paying attention to the underlined English words and their Russian translation, equivalent; close the right side of the sheet and translate the English sentences from memory; close the left side of the sheet, translate the Russian model into English, repeat the translations if necessary; proceed to program B; check the correctness of the tasks for the /B/ keys.

Score: 20% failure - 4 points; 40% - 3 points; 60% - 2 points.

Explanatory note

Proficiency in a foreign language is one of the important criteria for the successful adaptation of young people in the context of globalization of the economy, culture, and education. Today, English is the key to understanding the diversity of the world, it is a tool for intercultural communication.

One of the main goals of teaching a foreign language in secondary school is practical. Learning a language involves mastering several types of speech activity, one of which is grammar. Mastering grammar causes many difficulties due to grammatical terms, rules, and a huge number of exceptions to these rules that are difficult for students to understand. However, boring, sometimes complex grammatical rules are directly related to beautiful, and most importantly, correct speech.

Thus, knowledge of grammatical rules is a solid basis for learning English. The need to train and improve students' grammatical skills and the lack of time in the lesson determined the choice of this program for 5th grade students.

The course program is developed based on Law of the Russian Federation “On Education in the Russian Federation” No. 273-FZ dated 29.012.2012, federal state educational standard of basic general education, approximate educational program basic (secondary) general education ( Sample programs basic general education.. Foreign language. Grades 5-9: project. – 4th ed., revised – M.: Education, 2011. – 144 p. – (Series “Second Generation Standards”).

The English Grammar program is aimed at practical mastery of grammatical material and improving students’ existing knowledge of basic grammatical structures.

The English Grammar program is a supplement to the English language course for students studying English at an advanced level.

The program is designed for 17 hours and involves implementation in the first half of the 5th grade. The program provides for 3 tests based on the results of studying the topic.

The goal of the program: the development of foreign language communicative competence of students by expanding and deepening their knowledge of English grammar.

    activate and systematize students’ existing grammatical knowledge;

    expand and deepen knowledge of English grammar within the framework of the subject matter of I.N. Vereshchagina, O.V. Afanasyeva;

    give students the opportunity to practice grammar rules;

    enrich your vocabulary;

    begin preparing students for exams in the State Civil Aviation Examination format;

    develop sociocultural competence of students;

    to form cognitive interest in learning English.

The program will allow students to systematize and deepen their knowledge of grammar and improve their speaking and writing skills in English. The implementation of the program is aimed at achieving personal, meta-subject and subject results established by the Federal State Educational Standards of Basic General Education.

The course program is developed in accordance with the following principles:

    principle of humanization (dialogical, creative, personal and individualized interaction, it ensures not just the transfer of some content of knowledge, skills, habits, methods of action, etc. from the teacher to students, but also their mutually enriching personal development) ;

    person-centered approach , implying recognition of the uniqueness of each individual, creating conditions for cognitive activity students, the formation of a creative personality striving for self-education;

    activity principle , which consists in teaching not ready-made knowledge, but the procedures of educational activities to acquire knowledge, ways of thinking, methods of analysis, comprehension;

    communicative principle involves the creation of a foreign language environment in which the child can freely navigate and be able to respond adequately in various situations.

The main goal of the selected system of exercises is the practical mastery of the English language; it is aimed at mastering those operations with the material that are necessary for understanding and expressing thoughts in English. Grammar exercises are selected according to the following principles:

    scientific character;

    consistency and systematic presentation of the material;

    connection between theory and practice;

    visibility;

and requirements:

    teach actions with grammatical material;

    reflect the linguistic patterns of developed types of speech activity;

    have a communicative orientation;

    intensify the speech and thinking activity of students.

Planned results

As a result of studying the course, the student must:

- know and understand the tense forms of the verb;

Know and understand the use of the indefinite and definite articles;

Use tense forms of the verb in active and passive voices;

Perform lexical and grammatical tests in GIA format;

Apply acquired knowledge in a new speech context.

Forms of conducting classes

The main form of training is practical classes (work in groups, pairs, individual consultations, independent work, test tasks, project activities), on which already familiar grammatical material is activated, work on complex grammar rules, practicing the material on the proposed training exercises and practical output of what has been learned. The teacher does not convey ready-made knowledge, but is a consultant and coordinator of students’ educational and cognitive activities.

Moreover, the application has a spaced repetition function: the program will make sure that you do not forget to repeat the learned vocabulary.

How to break the language barrier using a gadget

The best way to learn to speak English is with an interlocutor. Breaking the language barrier using a gadget is quite difficult. However, there are tricks that can help you keep your speaking skills up to par.

1. We talk on Skype

What progress has come... Now online communication is available both through a computer and through a smartphone or tablet. If the characteristics of the device allow and the communication quality is acceptable, you will be able to communicate with the interlocutor. Where to find a “victim” to talk to?

  • search on special sites like italki.com or polyglotclub.com;
  • look for an interlocutor among sociable friends or colleagues who are learning the language;
  • communicate with the teacher at our school. Of course, in this case it is better to conduct lessons using a computer, but if circumstances force you, you can also study on a mobile device

2. Repeat phrases after native speakers

Found an interesting video in English? Want to talk like the people in the video? Then turn on the recording and repeat the phrases after the characters. Sentences spoken several times will be stored in your memory, and later you will be able to use them in speech.

In addition, you can learn a couple of new words, which will not be superfluous at all. You can study the lyrics of the songs on the sites azlyrics.com or amalgama-lab.com.
