Teacher:
Well done. Before the next task let’s recall the rule of “Five fingers”( В своей работе для лучшего усвоения порядка слов в специальных вопросах использую «принцип 5 пальцев»: большой палец руки ( похож на знак вопроса) – вопросительное слово, указательный палец (указывает на грамматическое время) – вспомогательный глагол, средний палец(самый большой и главный) – подлежащее, безымянный – основной глагол, мизинец – все остальные члены предложения. Такая шпаргалка всегда с собой и дети с удовольствием ей пользуются. ). Change your groups: red, blue, yellow and green.
You have got cards with the sentences your task is to ask the questions to the underlined words.


1. The monument to Minin and Pozharsky was designed by Ivan Martos.
2. St Basil’s Cathedral was built in 1561 by Postnik and Barma.
3. The Alexander Garden is situated near the Kremlin wall.

Teacher: Are you ready? Now, sit in pairs and ask your peer from another group about unknown information to complete the whole table.
Отсутствие необходимой информации стимулирует учащихся к общению. Они задают друг другу специальные вопросы в Passive Voice ( учащиеся повторили данный материал, выполняя задание 6) и заполняют вторую часть таблицы.

APPENDIX.
The Tsar Bell.
The largest bell in the world, the Tsar Bell,stands at the foot of the Ivan the Great Bell-Tower. It was cast in the Kremlin in 1733— 1735 by Ivan Motorin and his son Mikhail. The bell weighs over 200 tons. For the cast­ing a ten-metre-deep hole was dug. After the casting the bell remained in the hole. During the great fire of 1737 in the Kremlin, the bell was overheated and then overcooled when people tried to put out the fire with water. As a result a small piece broke off. It weighs 11.5 tons. The bell remained in the hole for more than a hundred years; in 1836, in the pres­ence of great crowds of people, the bell was raised and set on a stone pedestal. It is neces­sary to add that the Tsar-Bell has never rung.

The Tsar-Cannon.
The Tsar-Cannon is situated not far from the Tsar-Bell. It is the largest cannon in the world. It was cast in bronze by Andrei Chokhov in 1586 during the reign of Tsar Fyodor, son of Ivan the Terrible. Tsar Fyo-dor made an order to cast a very large can­non to scare the advancing Mongol-Tatar hordes. Such a cannon was cast, but it was too large, weighing as it did 40 tons. The Tsar-Cannon has never fired; at least we have no information about the cannon ever firing. The cannon was beautifully designed; the barrel was decorated with a floral ornament; the decorative gun-carriage was cast later, in 1835. Before the Moscow Olympic Games in 1980, the Tsar-Cannon was taken to pieces and restored, and then brought back to its jasual place in the Kremlin.

Tapescript. The Saviour’s Tower.

...Not far from St. Basil's Cathedral is the Saviour's Tower. It is the main gateway to the Kremlin. The tower was built in 1491 under the supervision of P. Solari. Its first name was Frolov Tower (from the Church of St. Frol and St. Laurus which once stood in the street starting from the gate of the tower). Ceremonial entrances of tsars or for­eign ambassadors and religious processions went through the gate of that tower. It was forbidden to ride on horseback and to wear a hat .when,., passing through the gate, and this rule appiled even to tsars. In t658 an icon of the Saviour was placed over the gate from the side of Red Square and the tower was renamed — it became the Saviour's Tower. A clock was installed in this tower in the 16th century. The clock you can see now on the Saviour's Tower was installed in 1851 — 1852 by the brothers Butenop. Architect K. Ton designed the metal parts for the clock. The clock's diameter is 6.12 metres, its nu­merals measure 72 centimetres, the hour hand is 2.97 metres, and the minute hand 3.27 metres long. The border of the dial, the numerals and the hands are guilded.
