Шановні читачі мого блогу! Працюючи над проблемою «Формування мовленнєвої компетенції на уроках англійської мови», я підготовила  матеріали і випустила методичні посібники «Навчання говоріння.

Developing speech habits with the help of songs.
    The development of students’ speech habits through music is comprised of three stages: preparatory, forming and developing.
     The first stage is the formation of monological speech habits within the topic “music” and includes reading specially chosen micro-texts on the topic that contain information about different musical trends as well as the history of the Beatles. This should also include post-reading exercises aimed at vocabulary development.
     The aim of the second stage is forming speech skills while discussing the songs under consideration. The tasks in this stage should be done in a seven-step sequence:
v Presentation to the students of pre-listening tasks.
v Listening to the song.
v Students answer the pre-listening questions.
v Post-listening tasks.
v Presentation of the typed text of the song lyrics.
v Second listening to the song.
v Discussion of the song.
   As an example, let us consider the tasks fulfilled while working with the song “Yesterday”.
Pre-listening questions: What is the song about? What feelings does it evolve?
Post-listening questions: How do the melody and the lyrics evolve? Who is the lead vocal? What can you say about his way of singing? What instruments accompany McCartney’s voice? Does the song sound like a classical piece? Whose image is created in the song? What kind of love is depicted in the song? Is the love story told in a highly emotional way or with a tingle of detachment?
    Listen to the song again. Is there a proper balance of the singers’ voices and instruments in the song? Characterize the main musical elements of the song. 
         Now listen to the recorded version of the song “Yesterday” by Ray Charles. What differences can you notice in the interpretation? Which singer is more dramatic?
      The third stage of using a song in an English class is to further develop speech skills on the topic of “music” and to teach students how to use songs in English language learning. At this stage the students are involved in a discussion of the following problematic questions: Should a person understand only one musical genre or different kinds? Some people say that rock music promotes juvenile delinquency? Do you agree? Is rock music a passing phenomenon, an ephemeral fad with young people? What do you think are the main qualities of a pop-singer? Could you enumerate at least three of them?
     This phase should also include training, so that the teachers of English could have the knowledge and skill to do the following:
Ø to be able to select interesting texts on the topic of “music”;
Ø be able to analyse the didactic potential of a particular song;
Ø know how to teach a song to the pupils;
Ø be able to give a talk on the musical life of the target language community;
Ø critically evaluate songs with the purpose of including them in class activities.
      A teacher of English should be creative and innovative. Songs in English language teaching will help to make the process more interesting and effective. These are examples of using songs in learning process:
Exercise 1: Music which is soft and slow, such as lullabies, suggests a quiet, peaceful mood, while music that is loud and fast suggests a buoyant, active mood. Arrange the following adjectives in two groups of antonyms, according to the mood different songs may evoke;
     Quiet, peaceful-------active, buoyant
(calm, restful, happy, dreamy, mysterious, self-pitying, intimate, sad, sombre, festive, joyful).
 Exercise 2: You may need the following adjectives about the voice of a singer: deep, gentle, soft, fresh, clear, lyrical, expressive, velvety, small, quiet, nasal, guttural, hollow, resonant, gruff, harsh, raucous, husky, mellow, metallic, weak, anaemic. Using these words above, describe the voices of the singers you know.
Exercise 3: Select from the list given below the words which best describe the music from the point of:
Mood-----
Melody----
Rhythm---
Beat---
Tempo---
( self-pitying, aggressive, intimate, calm, restful, happy, sad, dreamy, mysterious, buoyant, active, strong, tuneful, expressive, emotional, lifting, catching, restless, assured, distinctive, light, heavy, regular, irregular, abrupt, impatient, jaunty, crisp, irresistible, driving, steady, ongoing, definite, slow, solid, quick, swift, fast, moderate).
Exercise 4: Listen to the song “Can’t buy me love”
 Pre-listening questions: In the title of the song the subject is omitted. Can you guess what it is?
Post-listening questions:
1. Is the title of the song an appropriate one? Can you suggest other titles?
2. From whose point of view is the song sung? Do you agree with the singer that “Money can’t buy me love?”
3.  Who is doing the lead vocal, backing vocals?
4. What is the melody like?
5. Is there a dynamism and kinaesthetic appeal in the song? Can you determine the rhythm and tempo of the song?
6. What attracts you more in the song: the music or the lyrics? What is more important for a song: music or lyrics? Why?
Roleplay the following situation. Imagine that a guest from Great Britain is coming to visit your school. Your class is on duty and is responsible for showing the guest around.
