waves hand «Good-bye!» During this lesson we shall learn: 1. What is culture 2.Tangible and intangible
culture 3. About UNESCO «Creative work» icon Dear friend! From your early childhood you hear the words:
culture, cultural person, culture of ancient civilizations. Now we will dive into the wonderful world named
“culture”. Do you know the meaning of this word? What are the components of this term? Like all children
you probably like to play and draw. Let us do some creative work. Let us think about it together and draw
a house named “culture”. I think when you were small you made a house from bright colorful bricks. At
first you built the foundation, then built the walls, and decorated the house with a beautiful roof. In a
similar way we shall start our work. The only difference is that each brick is a particle of culture. What will
become the foundation, i.e. the basis of the task? How will you build the walls? It’s up to you. Here you
have bricks to build the house. So, let’s begin. Good luck! I am sure you have successfully completed the
task. Most probably, your house consists of lots of lovely phenomena of culture, such as ballet, painting,
etc. «Work with a text» icon Do you know the origin of the word “culture”? I’ll tell you a secret. The term
“culture” appeared in ancient Rome. The word “cultural” meant something cultivated and processed. It was
attributed to objects, phenomena, actions, made by the man. It is natural that the man himself was also
included in the field of culture, because he created himself and he was the result of processing natural
substance. «Task» icon Would you like to check your memory? Choose a country where you think the word
“culture” appeared. Mini-test Where the word “culture” appeared? А. Greece В. Egypt С. Rome Epochs,
people and cultures are unique. Each has its own unique features. Now we will have a unique opportunity
to justify it. Be attentive. Some objects are displayed on the screen. You have to find out what refers to
tangible and intangible culture. «Task» icon Let us generalize everything we have learned today and make
a cluster. Culture Try to think and write down in your copybook: Tangible culture
is___________________________________ Intangible culture is
________________________________¬¬___ Now let’s check these words in the dictionary Tangible
culture is the surrounding environment, which includes buildings and historic places, monuments, artifacts,
etc., everything what is considered worthy of preservation for the future generations. These include objects
significant to archaeology, architecture, science or technology of a specific culture. Intangible culture -
customs, knowledge, skills. Intangible cultural heritage is manifested in the following areas: oral traditions;
performing arts; customs, rituals, festivals; knowledge and traditions related to nature and the universe;
knowledge and skills associated with traditional crafts. In your opinion, who takes care of the preservation
of culture, its development? Maybe you have already heard of such an international organization as
UNESCO? I suggest that we learn more about it. As the United Nations Organization, UNESCO was created
as a result of severe hardships of the World War II. On November 1-16, 1945, in London was held the
United Nations conference on the establishment of an organization dealing with issues of culture and
education. About 40 states took part in the conference. Following the suggestion of France and the United
Kingdom, who had suffered the hardships of the War, the delegates decided to create an organization
designed to establish the true culture of peace. At the final stage of the conference, 37 States signed the
Charter proclaiming the birth of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
(UNESCO). The Charter came into force in 1946 after its ratification by 20 states. The first session of the
General Conference was held in Paris on October 9-10, 1946. The goal of the organization is defined as
follows: «Document» icon “To contribute to the strengthening of peace and security by enhancing the
cooperation of peoples in the field of education and science in order to provide universal respect, justice,
law and human rights, as well as the fundamental freedoms proclaimed in the Charter of the United Nations
Organization for all peoples, without distinction regarding race, gender, language or religion.” (UNESCO
Charter). The supreme body is the General Conference. The headquarters is in Paris (France). Today,
UNESCO promotes cooperation between 191 valid and 6 associated Member States in field of education,
culture and communication. «Task» icon Let us write what we have learnt in a table: I know / I have learnt
New information I’d like to know / I do not agree So, what is the result? Is there anything else to think
about? Write down in your glossary «Dictionary» icon UNESCO - United Nations Educational, Scientific and
Cultural Organization. Can you imagine that 20-30 years ago there was no Internet, no e-mail, no Skype,

and to tell something important people sent telegrams to each other. In the telegram everything was
written very briefly, and only the most important things. Now we shall also write a telegram. Remember
what was important on the lesson and write it down. Send a telegram to one of your friends. I think they
will learn a lot of new information. And see you next time! -

4 6 11 42 48 50 10 25 48 27 5 So, what is the answer? Absolutely right! Topic of the lesson: «Ways of
spread of culture» “Work with the text” icon Read the text carefully: Humanity is moving towards progress
very rapidly, breaking the path from the stone ax to the space rocket. How the peoples managed to spread
their knowledge around the world. Researchers talk about several ways of spreading discoveries, inventions
and cultural achievements. We will learn about them now. Cultural borrowing is an intended imitation, a
way of transferring the values of one culture to another. Cultural borrowing is considered by scholars the
most widespread source of cultural change. One people borrows from another only what is most acceptable,
useful, what helps to achieve progress and meets the needs of the people. Spontaneous spread of culture is
the mutual penetration of cultural traits from one society into another during contact, during the so-called
cultural contact. It can leave no trace in both cultures, and on the other hand, can end with their equal and
strong influence on each other or with equally strong but one-sided influence. The ways of such mutual
penetration of cultures are: ideology and missionary activities, trade, literature and art, songs, food and
cooking, tourism, etc. Independent discoveries are discoveries in which the same invention has been made
independently in different countries. Independent inventions are the discovery of the same cultural traits
because of the needs of humanity. «Task» icon You have just read about the ways of culture distribution.
Systematize, identify the key words and make a cluster. Share your result, what did you write? Well done!
We use the achievements and inventions of the humankind, sometimes without thinking about how they
reached us. Ice cream, mirror, fork, trousers and many other things, seemingly banal - turned out to be the
product of human genius. «Task» icon «The most important discoveries of humanity» Write down or draw
10 most important in your opinion discoveries of humanity. How do you think these discoveries came to
your country? How have they been preserved till the present day? “Work in groups” icon Join your
classmates and prepare one of the proposed reports on the "Great Trade Routes", which have become
threads, linking the civilizations and cultures of the peoples of the world. "Great trade routes" Group 1. The
Great Tea route Tea has been known in China for almost 5000 years. For a long time it was believed that
China was the only homeland of tea bush and tea culture. Documentary evidence of tea as a consumer
product is found in sources dated 770 BC. For a long time Tea was a kind of curing drink, as well as a drink
accompanying the cult rituals in Buddhism. Only by the 9th century tea had became a national drink of the
Chinese. In the 16th century, tea became known in European countries, after it was exported outside of
China. The broad masses were introduced to tea only at the end of the 17th century, mainly by the English.
To Europe tea came in two ways - from the west by the sea route and from the east through Russia. Only

file:///C|/Users/suganya-pc/Desktop/Interculture/html-book/f-book-3.html[01-09-2017 15:01:07]

in the early 18th century tea ceased to be a court drink and began to spread among the people. From the
middle of the 18th century tea from England as a new fashion began to penetrate into other European
countries. Gradually, tea became one of the most important items of trade, and the trade route that linked
East and West was called "The Great Tea Way." Tea was carried on yaks, camels, horses. The geography
of the "Great Tea Way" is very extensive and covers significant areas of China, Mongolia, Russia and other
countries. The length of the main land route from Moscow to Beijing was 8332 versts according to some
source, to others - 8,839 versts. Part of the tea came to Russia through the Khanates of Central Asia. There
it came along the "Great Silk Road", then to Orenburg. Part of the tea came to Semipalatinsk, then to
Tobolsk, but most part - through Siberia. Tea trade was of great importance for the peoples of Eurasia. At
present, China still holds the position of one of tea production leaders in the tea market. The "Great Tea
Way" existed for 260 years and played a huge role in bringing the neighboring peoples closer together, in
developing economic and cultural, kinship, friendship, family ties. On the way, cities and towns, postal
stations and inns, churches and schools, factories and fairs, and tea-drinking establishments were built. The
"Great Tea Route" was the second largest in terms of trade turnover after the "Great Silk Road", but in
terms of its extent, as well as the influence it had on the lives of the peoples and countries participating in
tea trade, it is comparable to the "Great Silk Road". The national culture of drinking tea brought from
China, generated its own original national cultures on the territory of Russia and the countries of Europe.
Group 2. Incense route Precious aromatic resin - frankincense - for many millennia was the only source of
income for the state of Oman. Even in ancient times, the south-western region of the state of Oman -
Dhofar was known as an important center for trading frankincense. According to a legend, one of the three
kings who made a pilgrimage to the places where Jesus spent his infancy, and carried frankincense, started
is journey from Dhofar. In ancient times, the frankincense obtained in Dhofar was called "Sakhalit". Because
of the large number of fogs in this area, there is a legend that incense is dew falling on trees. In fact, in
Dhofar, frankincense is extracted in the following way: notches are made in the incense tree at the end of
March (the month "kand"). In the rainy season following this, juice, similar to milk, rises along the trunk
and flows out of the notches. Arabs call the frankincense the "tears of gods." For three or four weeks it
dries on the trunks of trees, then comes the time of harvest. From one tree up to 400 grams of
frankincense is collected. Local residents believe that smoking it, drives out the devil. Previously, all the
Bedouins of the village lived at the expense of incense trade. Over the centuries, frankincense was carried
by land from Dhofar to South Arabia, from there, turning north and moving along the Red Sea - to the
place where the road of incense was divided. One way led to Egypt, and the other to the east, to Babylon
and Syria. From here the merchants carried fragrant resin to Europe. Group 3. Spice route The spice route
is the land route of one of the oldest trade routes on earth, connecting India, Spice Islands (in Southeast
Asia) and East Africa with the Mediterranean countries. Starting in the countries of Asia, it reached the ports
of the Arabian and Red Seas, from where the goods were loaded onto caravans that passed through the
city of Petra to the Mediterranean coast. The spice trade carried prosperity and power to the luxurious Arab
cities. Not only spices from the Spice Islands and India (cinnamon, ginger, pepper, etc.) were delivered
along this route, but also precious wood and ivory from East Africa, silk from China, gold, silver, precious
stones. Depending on the military-political situation, some sections of the spice road, like any other trade
route, could move toward safer areas. For example, during the reign of King Herod, Caesarea was the main
port for the spice trade on this route on the Mediterranean coast, and during the Crusades the caravans
from Petra, going around the conflict area, moved south to the Mediterranean Sea in the El Arish area, but
never was this trade interrupted. Muslim domination over the routes of spice trade forced Europeans to
seek other ways, which ultimately led to the era of great geographical discoveries. In the Middle Ages spices
remained one of the most important elements in the European economy and the basis of culinary alchemy.
Brave travelers sought to open new lands with unknown fruits and spices. Famous travelers Marco Polo,
Christopher Columbus, Vasco da Gama, Amerigo Vespucci and Fernand Magellan were so passionate in the
pursuit of spices that they became the greatest discoverers and founded the Age of Great Geographical
Discoveries. Tell me, what was most interesting for you and your friends. Draw up a schematic map of the
trade route. “Game” icon You already know how to send a telegram. Briefly write down the most important
thing that you have learnt on the lesson and send it to your neighbour. And it's time for us to say goodbye.
But not for long. See you soon, dear friend.

icon Do you know what is origami? I think each of us made some paper figures in childhood. Origami - (the
so-called folding of figures from paper) is an art. Initially, this activity was available only to the aristocracy
of China, Japan and some European countries. The ability to create miniature paper sculptures was
considered a sign of good upbringing and belonging to the chosen layers of society. Where did origami
originate? The birthplace of origami is Ancient China, which is not surprising - it is the craftsmen of this
country invented paper. Initially, the folding of figures from paper was of a purely ritual character in the
conduct of religious rites. However, over time, rituals turned into secular art, which gradually spread to
other countries Источник: https://kak-sdelat-vse.com/izdeliya-iz-bumagi/849-kak-poyavilos-origami.html
Today we shall learn the art of origami and make a boat. To do this, we need a rectangular sheet of paper
(album format). Carefully follow the instructions, so that we make a masterpiece of the ancient Chinese art.
Description and scheme in pictures: Put a rectangular sheet of paper in front of you and fold it in half.
Bend the upper corners to the center at a right angle. Bend the free corners of the sheet from the
bottom on both sides. Bend the corners of the edges inward. Fold the opposite angles of the resulting
triangle. You will get a square. Fix the new fold line. Bend the bottom corners to the top corner on
both sides to make a triangle. Fold the opposite corners of the triangle to make a square. Hold the
square at its upper corners and dilute them until you get a boat. «Islands» Well, we became masters of
origami. Once there is a boat, we must go on a sea voyage. We have a map with islands: Joy island,
Sadness island, Bewilderment island, Anxiety island, Expectation island, Enlightenment island, Enthusiasm
island and Pleasure island. I suggest that you sign your ship with a marker and send it to the island, which
corresponds to your mood. Come on, Captain! Anything can happen on unknown islands. Let us practice
accuracy and shooting. Our next step is the game "Shootout". The main idea of the game is the repetition
of the past topics. For the game we need a ball. Preparing for the game Prepare a question related to the
theme of UNESCO. By lot, choose the team that will start the game. The student of the first team throws
the ball and asks the representative of the second team. The student of the team # 2 answers, if the
answer is correct, the team gets 1 point. The teacher or the presenter from the number of students fixes
the result on the board. Then the game continues. The ball with the question goes to the team number 3.
The game is played until the teacher concludes that all previously acquired knowledge is activated. The
presenter summarizes the game and announces the winner. After playing "shootout" we come to the
conclusion that UNESCO has many areas of its activities, including the preservation of cultural and natural
heritage. We have come across a new concept, do not forget to use the dictionary and write down the
definition. «Dictionary» icon Cultural heritage of each people is a reflection of the thousand facets of its
genius and history, uniting everything that it created over the centuries, and everything it will realize in the
future. Let us talk about the natural heritage in more detail. “Work with the text” icon Read the text, write
out the keywords or make up a cluster. Natural heritage are natural monuments created by physical and
biological processes inside and on the surface of our planet without human participation. The UNESCO
World Heritage List contains the most well-preserved heritage monument with the greatest scientific,
aesthetic and symbolic significance for all mankind. The emblem of world heritage, created by the artist M.
Oliff, looks like this: It embodies the interdependence of cultural and natural wealth: the square is all that
was created by the hands of man, and the circle is all that was created by nature around it. They are
closely related. This emblem is a symbol of peace and, at the same time, a call to protect and preserve the
heritage of mankind and nature. And in 1995 appeared this funny little man called "Patrimonito": It is a
symbol of the world youth movement for the study of cultural and natural heritage sites. It was invented by
Spanish students at the first youth forum on World Heritage in Norway. In Spanish "patrimonito" means "a
small heritage". Strength is in friendship and unity. Call your friends, let's work in a team. «Work in small
groups» icon Let us divide into five groups. You have the World heritage sites lists for each country of
Central Asia. Task: Divide the sites into cultural and natural. Tell us about one heritage site. Now we give
floor to the scholars! Young defenders of cultural and natural heritage are speaking. Well done! I propose
to summarize everything and do an exercise "SUITCASE, GARBAGE CAN, MEAT GRINDER". How to do it?
Now I will tell you. You see three large sheets of paper, one with a huge suitcase, the second – with a
garbage can and the third - a meat grinder. On a yellow sheet, which is then glued to a poster with a

file:///C|/Users/suganya-pc/Desktop/Interculture/html-book/f-book-4.html[01-09-2017 15:01:07]

suitcase, it is necessary to draw something important that you received from the lesson (in group, in class),
ready to take with you and use it in your activities. On a blue sheet of paper draw something that turned
out to be unnecessary, useless, and what can be sent to the "garbage can". Thus, what needs to be
rethought, finalized, is sent to the "meat grinder". The leaflets are written anonymously and are stitched by
the participants on their own as soon as they are ready. Well, we have summed it up. I look forward to
seeing you next time.
