        Introduction into the topic

T: I’d like to start our lesson with a poem.

        - Great wide beautiful world

With wonderful waters round you curled

And the wonderful grass upon your breast.

World, you are beautifully dressed!

The wonderful air is over me

And the wonderful wind shaking the tree.

It walks in the waters and wheels the mill,

And talks to itself on the top of the hill.

       Dear pupils, as you’ve understood the theme of our lesson will be connected with nature. The motto of our lesson is “No matter what colour your skin is, what language we speak, we have one thing in common: all of us are people of the same planet with the same worries, troubles and future”.

Today we’re going to discuss the main environmental problems endangering us and try to find their solutions.

           Imagine a world with no drinking water, and no water to wash or cook with. It’s hard to imagine this, because we use water every day without even thinking about it.

         Yet there are terrible water shortages all over the world. A lot of people in the world don’t even have clean water to drink. We all need water – not just for our homes and factories, but to survive.

         There are things that we can all do to save water. The solution begins at home. We can save the water from our baths and use it for the gardens.

          Governments can help by passing laws to stop factories from wasting and polluting water. If factories recycled water and stopped pouring chemicals into our lakes and rivers, there would be a lot more clean water around. Governments could also stop water companies from wasting millions of liters of water because of leaking pipes. Many cities have successfully saved water by repairing pipes. The time has come to start understanding the value of water, before a world without clean water becomes a terrible reality.
