(Portrait of a Writer)

- I would like to introduce you to his biography.

The real name of Dmitry Narkisovich Mamin-Sibiryak is Mom's

He was born on November 6, 1852 in a factory village in the Perm province (now Sverdlovsk region) in the family of a factory priest and a local school teacher.

He received his primary education at home, graduated from theological seminary, then he studied at St. Petersburg University.

More than 130 works of various genres were written for children and about children.

100 years have passed, but the writer is remembered and his books are read.

The main work of Mamin-Sibiryak for children is a collection -“Alyonushka's Tales”.

The writer himself speaks of his collection like this: “This is my favorite book - love itself wrote it, and therefore it will outlive everything else.”

And they begin “Alyonushka's Tales” from a saying.

What is a saying?

(Proverb - a short story, a joke before the beginning of a fairy tale)

That's right, guys.

Why do you need a saying? (to set listeners in a fairytale mood)

What is special about the saying? (with curiosity, anticipation, prepares to listen to a fairy tale).

Open the textbook us. 182 and listen to the saying performed by Eva. (is reading)

The student reads the saying expressively.

2. Work from the textbook (p. 182)

Read the title of the story yourself.

What is the name of this fairy tale? ("The Tale of the Brave Hare - long ears, slanting eyes, short tail")

Who will the fairy tale be about?(From the title of the fairy tale it is clear that the main character will be a hare. It is even given detailed description. It’s just not clear why it is said that he is brave, since hares are usually cowardly.)

What hare? (Obrave Hare - long ears, slanting eyes, short tail")

That's right, guys.

3. Vocabulary work (clarification lexical meaning expressions).

In this fairy tale there will be expressions whose meaning you are already familiar with, as well as new expressions, the meaning of which we will now clarify.

The soul ran away - very scared of something

Having tasted wolf teeth - encountered a wolf

How do you understand the expression“The braggart’s tongue is definitely frozen”? (couldn't speak)

I didn't dare to breathe - freeze with horror, fear; to feel timid, not to dare to do anything.

I asked such a trickster - run away quickly, at high speed

Jump out of your own skin - change a lot, become different, overcome some difficulties, with all your strength.

Hot on the heels- he runs after him.

Dropped dead - without signs of life (fall, collapse)

4. Reading by the teacher “Tales about the brave Hare - long ears, slanting eyes, short tail.”

Sit back and get ready to listen"A tale about a brave Hare - long ears, slanting eyes, a short tail."

5. Work on the content of what you listened to.

Did you like the fairy tale? (I liked the fairy tale)

How? (fun, interesting, funny situation)

Why is this a fairy tale and not a story? (the animals are talking).

Name the main characters. (hare, young and old hares, wolf).

Who did you like the most?

How is the hare depicted at the beginning of the fairy tale? (cowardly)

What gave the hare strength? (boastful words)

Why did young and old hares laugh at him? (they understood that the wolf could not be defeated, and the hare was just showing off)

What moment of the fairy tale is the most interesting for you?

Why did the wolf run away? (incomprehensible, unknown - it became scary).

How did the fairy tale end?

Why did the writer come up with this fairy tale about a brave hare and tell it to Alyonushka? (the author laughed at the hare: there is no need to brag, otherwise you might end up in the wolf’s mouth and chance won’t help, the hare was lucky that the wolf didn’t eat him).

That's right, guys, now let's rest a little and do some physical exercise.

A bunny was born in the forest and was afraid of everything. A twig will crack somewhere, a bird will fly up, a lump of snow will fall from a tree - the bunny is in hot water.

The bunny was afraid for a day, afraid for two, afraid for a week, afraid for a year; and then he grew up big, and suddenly he got tired of being afraid.

- I'm not afraid of anyone! - he shouted to the whole forest. “I’m not afraid at all, that’s all!”

The old hares gathered, the little bunnies came running, the old female hares tagged along - everyone listened to how the Hare boasted - long ears, slanting eyes, a short tail - they listened and did not believe their own ears. There has never been a time when the hare was not afraid of anyone.

- Hey, slanting eye, aren’t you afraid of the wolf?

“I’m not afraid of the wolf, or the fox, or the bear—I’m not afraid of anyone!”

This turned out to be quite funny. The young hares giggled, covering their faces with their front paws, the kind old hare women laughed, even the old hares, who had been in the paws of a fox and tasted wolf teeth, smiled. A very funny hare!.. Oh, how funny! And everyone suddenly felt happy. They started tumbling, jumping, jumping, racing each other, as if everyone had gone crazy.

- What is there to say for a long time! - shouted the Hare, who had finally gained courage. - If I come across a wolf, I’ll eat him myself...

- Oh, what a funny Hare! Oh, how stupid he is!..
Everyone sees that he is funny and stupid, and everyone laughs. The hares scream about the wolf, and the wolf is right there. He walked, walked in the forest about his wolf business, got hungry and just thought: “It would be nice to have a bunny snack!” - when he hears that somewhere very close, hares are screaming and they remember him, the gray Wolf. Now he stopped, sniffed the air and began to creep up.

The Wolf came very close to the playful hares, heard them laughing at him, and most of all - the boastful Hare - slanted eyes, long ears, short tail.

“Eh, brother, wait, I’ll eat you!” – thought Gray wolf and began to look out to see the hare boasting of his bravery. But the hares don’t see anything and are having more fun than ever. It ended with the boastful Hare climbing onto a stump, sitting on his hind legs and speaking:

– Listen, you cowards! Listen and look at me. Now I’ll show you one thing. I... I... I...

Here the braggart’s tongue seemed to freeze.

The Hare saw the Wolf looking at him. Others did not see, but he saw and did not dare to breathe.

The boastful hare jumped up like a ball, and out of fear fell straight onto the wide wolf’s forehead, rolled head over heels along the wolf’s back, turned over again in the air and then gave such a kick that it seemed like he was ready to jump out of his own skin.

The unfortunate Bunny ran for a long time, ran until he was completely exhausted.
It seemed to him that the Wolf was hot on his heels and was about to grab him with his teeth.
Finally, the poor fellow was completely exhausted, closed his eyes and fell dead under a bush.
And the Wolf at that time ran in the other direction. When the Hare fell on him, it seemed to him that someone had shot at him.

And the Wolf ran away. You never know how many other hares you can find in the forest, but this one was kind of crazy...

It took the rest of the hares a long time to come to their senses. Some ran into the bushes, some hid behind a stump, some fell into a hole.

Finally, everyone got tired of hiding, and little by little they began to look out to see who was braver.

- And our Hare cleverly scared the Wolf! - everything was decided. - If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have left alive... But where is he, our fearless Hare?

We started looking.

We walked and walked, but the brave Hare was nowhere to be found. Had another wolf eaten him?

Finally they found him: lying in a hole under a bush and barely alive from fear.

- Well done, oblique! - all the hares shouted in one voice. - Oh, yes, a scythe!.. You cleverly scared the old Wolf. Thank you brother! And we thought you were bragging.

The brave Hare immediately perked up. He crawled out of his hole, shook himself, narrowed his eyes and said:

– What did you think? Oh you cowards...

From that day on, the brave Hare began to believe that he was really not afraid of anyone.

A bunny was born in the forest and was afraid of everything. A twig cracks somewhere, a bird flies up, a lump of snow falls from a tree - the bunny is in hot water.
The bunny was afraid for a day, afraid for two, afraid for a week, afraid for a year, and then he grew up big, and suddenly he got tired of being afraid.
- I'm not afraid of anyone! - he shouted to the whole forest. “I’m not afraid at all, that’s all.”
The old hares gathered, the little bunnies came running, the old female hares trotted in - everyone listened to the Long-Eared-Slanting Hare boasting. Eyes-Short Tail, - they listen and don’t believe their own ears. There has never been a time when the hare was not afraid of anyone.
- Hey, Squint Eye, aren’t you afraid of the wolf?
“I’m not afraid of the wolf, or the fox, or the bear—I’m not afraid of anyone.”
This turned out to be quite funny. The young hares giggled, covering their faces with their front paws, the kind old hare women laughed, even the old hares, who had been in the paws of a fox and tasted wolf teeth, smiled.
A very funny hare!.. Oh, so funny!.. And everyone suddenly felt happy.
They started tumbling, jumping, jumping, racing each other, as if everyone had gone crazy.
- What is there to say for a long time! - shouted the hare, who had finally gained courage. - If I come across a wolf, I’ll eat it myself...
Oh, what a funny hare! Oh, how stupid he is!
Everyone sees that he is funny and stupid, and everyone laughs.
The hares scream about the wolf, and the wolf is right there.
He walked, walked in the forest about his wolf business, got hungry and just thought: “It would be nice to have a bunny snack!” - when he hears that somewhere very close, hares are screaming and they remember him, the gray wolf.
Now he stopped, sniffed the air and began to creep up.
The wolf came very close to the playful hares, he heard them laughing at him, and most of all - the boastful hare - Slanting Eyes - Long Ears - Short Tail.
“Eh, brother, wait, I’ll eat you!” - thought the gray wolf and began to look out to see the hare boasting of his courage.
But the hares don’t see anything and are having more fun than ever.

It ended with the boastful hare climbing onto a stump, sitting on his hind legs and speaking:
- Listen, you cowards! Listen and look at me. Now I’ll show you one thing. I... I... I...
Here the braggart’s tongue seemed to freeze. The hare saw a wolf looking at him.
Others did not see, but he saw and did not dare to breathe.
Then a completely extraordinary thing happened.
The boastful hare jumped up like a ball, and out of fear fell straight onto the wide wolf’s forehead, rolled head over heels along the wolf’s back, turned over again in the air and then gave such a kick that it seemed like he was ready to jump out of his own skin.
The unfortunate bunny ran for a long time, ran until he was completely exhausted.
It seemed to him that the wolf was hot on his heels and was about to grab him with its teeth.
Finally, the poor fellow was completely exhausted, closed his eyes and fell dead under a bush. And the wolf at that time ran in the other direction.

And the wolf ran away. You never know how many other hares you can find in the forest, but this one was kind of crazy.
It took the rest of the hares a long time to come to their senses. Some ran into the bushes, some hid behind a stump, some fell into a hole.
Finally, everyone got tired of hiding, and little by little the bravest ones began to peek out.
“And our hare cleverly scared the wolf!” - everything was decided. “If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have left alive.” Where is he, our fearless hare?..
We started looking.
We walked and walked, but the Brave Hare was nowhere to be found. Had another wolf eaten him? Finally they found him: lying in a hole under a bush and barely alive from fear.
- Well done, Kosoy! - all the hares shouted in one voice. - Oh yes Oblique!.. You cleverly scared the old wolf. Thank you brother! And we thought you were bragging.
The brave Hare immediately perked up. He crawled out of his hole, shook himself, narrowed his eyes and said:
- What would you think! Oh you cowards!..
From that day on, the Brave Hare began to believe that he was really not afraid of anyone.
Mamin-Sibiryak D.

A bunny was born in the forest and was afraid of everything. A twig will crack somewhere, a bird will fly up, a lump of snow will fall from a tree - the bunny is in hot water.

The bunny was afraid of Mother's Siberian for a day, afraid for two, afraid for a week, afraid for a year; and then he grew up big, and suddenly he got tired of being afraid.

I'm not afraid of anyone! - he shouted to the whole forest. - I’m not afraid at all, that’s all!

The old hares gathered, the little bunnies came running, the old female hares tagged along - everyone listened to how the Hare boasted - long ears, slanting eyes, a short tail - they listened and did not believe their own ears. There has never been a time when the hare was not afraid of anyone.

Hey, slanting eye, aren't you even afraid of the wolf?

And I’m not afraid of the wolf, and the fox, and the bear - I’m not afraid of anyone!

This turned out to be quite funny. The young hares giggled, covering their faces with their front paws, the kind old hare women laughed, even the old hares, who had been in the paws of a fox and tasted wolf teeth, smiled. A very funny hare!.. Oh, how funny! And everyone suddenly felt happy. They started tumbling, jumping, jumping, racing each other, as if everyone had gone crazy.

What is there to talk about for so long! - shouted the Hare, who had finally gained courage. - If I come across a wolf, I’ll eat it myself...

Oh, what a funny Hare! Oh, how stupid he is!..

Everyone sees that he is funny and stupid, and everyone laughs.

The hares scream about the wolf, and the wolf is right there.

He walked, walked in the forest about his wolf business, got hungry and just thought: “It would be nice to have a bunny snack!” - when he hears that somewhere very close, hares are screaming and they remember him, the gray Wolf.

Now he stopped, sniffed the air and began to creep up.

The wolf came very close to the playful hares, heard them laughing at him, and most of all - the boastful Hare - slanting eyes, long ears, short tail.
