ТЕМАТИЧЕСКАЯ ДИСКОТЕКА «MODERN BRITISH MUSIC»

Предлагаю провести тематическую дискотеку, посвящённую современной английской музыке, - «Modern British Music». Такая форма работы, объединяющая в себе музыкальную просветительскую работу и развлечение, позволяет учителю активно влиять на процесс музыкально-эстетического воспитания школьников. Песни на иностранном языке способствуют развитию языковой, речевой и социокультурной компетенции, стимулируя мотивацию учащихся к овладению иностранным языком.

Для подготовки и проведения дискотеки следует создать совет, в состав которого желательно привлечь настоящих знатоков современной музыки. В школе такими знатоками могут быть преподаватель музыки, кто-то из числа родителей, имеющий музыкальное образование. Я проводила это мероприятие в 9 классе с углублённым изучением английского языка, где мы занимаемся по УМК авторов О.В.Афанасьевой и И.В.Михеевой после прохождения темы «Страницы истории», где в конце модуля 1 предлагалось выполнить проект по теме: «Событие великой исторической важности». Дети приготовили проекты о великих полководцах, политиках, других выдающихся личностях разных эпох и народов, но, честно говоря, особого интереса у всех это не вызвало и один из учащихся спросил, нельзя ли подготовить проект о музыке и всемирно известных музыкантах. Мне понравилась это предложение, и я решила расширить его до внеклассного мероприятия.

Форма проведения мероприятия: тематическая дискотека

Необходимое оборудование: сценарий дискотеки, фонд музыкальных произведений, фотографии певцов, музыкантов, поэтов и композиторов, вопросы для проведения музыкальной викторины. Зал или класс украшен разноцветными шарами, портретами, текстами песен.

Жюри: 1. Учитель музыки 2. Мама А. Хубиева (оперная певица) 3. Учитель английского языка.

Подробное описание мероприятия.

Диск-жокей 1: Let’s begin our disco. I think that all of us like music. With the help of music we can express our thoughts and feelings, we can relax and have fun.

Диск-жокей 2: Recently I’ve read an article that music has lost its importance nowadays. The author tries to convince us that only 10 or 20 years ago there were real masters writing real songs. And the only thing we can get now is synthesizers and dance music.

There are well-known cases of antisocial behavior on the part of some young people during the concerts.

Диск-жокей 1: But the great popularity of rock music speaks for itself. It prevails in youth culture. Young people are united by it and communicate through it, express their thoughts,hopes, dreams, sorrows,joys. Rock attracts many young people all over the world.
