How wide is the river here? Why is it called Millennium? Do you mind extra work? Why don´t you answer more questions about this sight? How wide is the river here? Why is it called Millennium? Who designed it? It didn´t wobble in a film, it collapsed. Do you know which film it showed? How would you feel if it wobbled?

Anglický jazyk a seminář anglické konverzace ve 4 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 geografických a historických souvislostech etap rozvoje této světové metropole i o různých aspektech kultury, umění, literatury a politického života tohoto kosmopolitního centra. Je užitečné, předchází-li jednotlivým aktivitám brainstorming – umožňuje ověřit, co žáci již znají, nabídnout, co mohou očekávat, podpořit kreativitu, soutěživost a týmovou práci. Závěrečná sada otázek umožňuje ověřit u žáků jejich míru vnímání i schopnost vyvozovat souvislosti z nápovědy. Obrázků lze využít nejen k ilustraci daného jevu, ale také k popisu a porovnání.
