1	Organization moment.		- Good morning, pupils! Who is on duty? Who is absent? Now, pupils, let's begin our lesson. The theme of our lesson is "Sights of London"	1 min
2	Engage		Warm-up. T: Close your eyes and think of your dream vacation: What kind of places will you visit? Who will you take with you? Pupils will speak about their dreams: where they want to go and what they want to see and with whom they want to go.	5 min
3	Activate		Teacher: There are many ways to get to London. One of them is to get to London by bus. So, we have an excursion by bus. So, our first stop is Tower of London. P1: There are many famous ancient buildings within the city. The most striking of them is St. Paul's Cathedral, sir Christopher Wren's masterpiece. It was built in 1675-1710 to replace the 13^thcentury cathedral which had been destroyed by the Great Fire. T: The next a beautiful Gothic building is Westminster Abbey. P2: Westminster Abbey is a beautiful Gothic building. Henry III wanted brighter and bigger building. The building of Westminster Abbey went on until the 18^th century. Almost all the monarchs since William the conqueror have been crowned there. There are memorials of many statesmen, scientists and writers in Westminster. Westminster is not a cathedral. It is a royal property. It is dependent directly on the monarch. T: We shall continue our excursion about London. Do you want to know who rules the country in Britain? P3: Another place which can strike you most is Buckingham Palace. It is the residence of the Queen. It is rather difficult to understand the British way of ruling the country. In Britain the Queen is the Head of the state, but in fact, she doesn't rule the country as she has no power. The real power in the country belongs to the British Parliament and to the British Government. The Queen is a symbol of the country and its traditions. T: The next is Queen Elizabeth Gate - Hyde Park. P4: London is also famous for its beautiful parks. Hyde Park is the most democratic place in the world; because anyone can say anything he likes there Regent Park is the home of the London zoo. T: Our journey has come to the end.	15 min
