Класс делится на две группы. Каждая группа получает свой текст для чтения. Группа А
получает текст  о начальной школе США, а группа В получает текст о средней и старшей школе США. Затем, учащиеся в вопросно-ответной форме обмениваются полученной информацией.

Текст для группы А

American children go to elementary school when they are six years old and they stay there for six years. The school years are called grades. The first year is the "first” grade and the last year is the "six” grade. In most parts of the country elementary schools also have kindergartens for five-year-olds.
Pre-schools are for children younger than five. In pre-school children prepare to go to school. They play with other children and learn to listen to the teacher. These are important processes for young children.
American children do not have to go to school until the age of six, so not all children attend pre-school.
Public elementary schools usually have 500 students. Boys and girls attend classes together, and there are between 15 and 30 children in a class. Some students learn fast. Others need help. The teacher may put pupils in small groups where they can learn at different speeds. The most important subjects are English, Maths and Science. The pupils also learn Music, Art, French and Health.

1. What core subjects do students study at high school?
2. What electives do they take?
3. Do teachers use tests at school? Why?
4. Why do you think tests are also for teachers and schools?
5. What are the marks most American schools give the students?
6. Where do teachers list the students’ marks?

Текст для группы В

In junior high school (grades 7 and 8) and in senior high school (grades 9 through 12) core subjects are English, Maths, Social Studies, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, foreign languages. Electives are music, Art, typing, home economics, computer science, Drama.
Students take many tests every year. Teachers use tests to see how well pupils are learning at school. If students pass these tests, they go on to the next grade where the work is harder. There is another special test that pupils take every year in all the schools in America. It is a different test for each grade but the same for all students in the same grade. It shows what they have learnt that year. It also shows which schools teach well.
Most American schools give the following marks:
A = 91 – 100%
B = 81 – 90%
C = 71 – 80%
D = 65 – 70%
E = 50 – 64%
F = bellow 50%
In high school it is possible to take some classes without marks. Then the student gets a "P” for "pass’ and an "f” for "fail”.
Teachers keep lists of students’ test and homework marks. They give students marks for how they work. Then they list the students’ marks on their report card. Students get report cards four times a year. One copy is sent to the parents and the school keeps a copy.
