16 Anglický jazyk a seminář anglické konverzace ve 4. ročníku a oktávě všeobecného gymnázia Metodický pokyn Tato prezentace je určena pro použití ve vyučovací hodině, pro samostatnou práci dvojic u PC i pro samostatné domácí studium prostřednictvím pracovního listu - jako doplněk výkladu či opakování tematických okruhů k maturitní zkoušce na všeobecném gymnáziu. Kromě uvedeného lexikálního cvičení – doplňování vhodných výrazů – a cvičení čtení s porozuměním nabízí rozšíření povědomí o osobnostech literatury anglicky mluvících zemí a o různých aspektech historie a kultury v těchto zemích. Především pak poskytuje možnost seznámit se v ukázkách se stylem psaní daného autora. Vybízí též k aktivní práci s textem ve formě překladu do češtiny a porovnání s uměleckým překladem či převedení do dnešní podoby angličtiny. Je užitečné, předchází-li jednotlivým aktivitám brainstorming – umožňuje ověřit, co žáci již znají, nabídnout, co mohou očekávat, podpořit kreativitu, soutěživost a týmovou práci. Obrázků lze využít nejen k ilustraci daného jevu, ale také k popisu a porovnání.
