Слайд 2Today it is fashionable to speak about teens’ problems.
A few years
ago alcohol, fights, killing and other kinds of violence were more problems for adults than for young people.
But now, as official reports say, violence, AIDS, drugs and alcohol are more associated with youngsters.
So there is a question:
Are all teenagers violent?
Слайд 3Hypothesis:
All teens in our school are violent.
Process Of Our Research:
1. To work with the dictionary.
2. To find some information about teens’ behaviour abroad.
3. To determine positive and negative sides of teens’ attitude to life.
4. To ask for some information about teens of our school the social pedagogue.
5. To make up questionnaire for pupils of our school.
6. To analyze and summarize all the facts.
7. To come to the conclusion.
Слайд 5 First we use the dictionary to find the
definition of the words “violence” and “violent”.
Violence - 1. violent behaviour, acts of violence;
2. a strong force that something has,
often one that causes a lot of damage.
Violent - using physical force to hurt people or damage property.
More than that we think violence includes bulling, teasing, giving nicknames, saying dirty words, fighting and killing.

Слайд 9What Is Positive About Foreign Teens
Some journalists think that
the fact that teens are rude and violent, is quite the opposite of the truth. Teenagers spend a lot of time thinking about their work or studies, their families, friends and hobbies. There is the myth that all teenagers are rude, selfish, lazy and greedy. The vast majority of young people they meet, are polite, friendly, open, interested and hard-working.
Слайд 10What Do Teens Think About Themselves
Not everyone who is a teenager
drinks and get involved in fights. This is a horrible stereotype.
A lot of teens attend colleges, have a part time job, help their parents caring about younger children, do voluntary work in different organizations.
There are some teenagers who are pretty wild but that goes for minority. There are millions of young people out there who are achieving great things, making successes of yourselves and helping other people.

Слайд 16Conclusions And Suggestions
According to our investigation
we came to the conclusion that not all pupils of our school are violent. Many other students are very active and hard-working at the lessons. More than that they take part in different subject contests and win the first prizes. Besides they attend different elective cources, clubs and sport sections.
These pupils are polite, well-mannered, helpful, friendly and interested in different things.
Слайд 17The pupils think we should be tolerant to each other to
avoid negative situations, to explain the pupils how to behave in the right way, to help them become better.
We also should work with the parents. They must understand that their children are their future and they shouldn’t be indifferent with them. All grown-ups should love their children and take care of them.
