Explanation
Project: a weather forecast. On the map we put cities and symbols (sun, cloud, rain, snow). Model: “Good evening! Here is the weather forecast for Thursday, the fifteenth of April. In Namangan it’s cloudy, 17 degrees. In Karshi it’s sunny and hot. In Tashkent there is a thunderstorm in the evening.” Date: “Thursday, the fifteenth of April”. Review: weather adjectives, temperature, because, feel, parts of the day. In class we read the forecast like a TV presenter.
