In the last lesson, we met a wonderful Soviet author and his work “The Multi-Colored Butterfly”. And today we will analyze the work and identify the idea of the legend.

Updating knowledge.
Brief retelling, title of each part
1. Work on the first part
Where did Timosha and his mother live? (On the shore of the Black Sea in a government hut)
- What happened to the boy? (Ran away from home and never returned)
- Why did he run away from home? (Play, talk to stones, catch butterflies)
- How did he behave after the walks? (I was sad that the butterfly couldn’t fly.)
- What did your mother say and advise about this? Read it. (- She won’t die and won’t live, - said the mother. - She needs to fly in order to live, but you caught her and took her in your hands, wiped her wings, and she became sick... Don’t catch them!)
- Who paved the path up the mountain? Read. (- Paved by an unknown man who went along it to heaven through the highest mountain - he left and never returned; he was childless, did not love anyone in the world, the earth was not dear to him, and everyone forgot about him;).
This is a warning for Timosha, but neither he nor his mother understood this.
- How can you title the first part?
A path into the unknown, childhood on the seashore.
(During the conversation, the underlined words that are the main ones are posted on the board.)

What conclusion did Timosha make? (This is a good drop!) Why is she kind?
- Who was your next meeting? (With a butterfly).
-What was unusual about her? Read. (She was big, like a bird, and her wings were in colors that Timosha had never seen. From the trembling of her wings, it seemed to the boy that the light was leaving her and sounded like a quiet voice calling him.)
- How did events develop further? (I wanted to catch a butterfly, but it didn’t work out.)
- Why did Timosha decide that the butterfly was evil? (didn’t speak, didn’t look at him.)
- What desire was stronger than the desire to return home to your mother’s voice? (Catch only one butterfly, the best one, the last one)
- How does this characterize the hero? (Stubborn, disobedient, determined)
- Did the butterfly need Timosha? (Not needed)
- What did Timosha see at the end of the path? (The whole sky, and close to it a big kind squinting star was shining)

How did your mother live all this time? (Waiting for her son, she counted the time, looked into the starry sky, it seemed to her that she saw her son running in the Milky Way, she asked to return, saying: “No need, let everything be, then you will be too”)

At four, it flew away.
Generalization.
What does mom mean to you?
Sayings, poems about mother
Mom is the most beautiful word spoken by a person. (Kyle Gibran)
There is nothing that a mother's love cannot withstand. (Paddock)
No one can love as devotedly and forgivingly as a mother. (Sukhomlinsky).
You have a template circled on a piece of paper, choose the color of the butterfly yourself, and then decorate it with warm and cold tones. Before you start, I suggest you look at the variety of colored butterflies.(video film)
Lesson summary.
In life, each of you will have a dream, like that colorful butterfly that captivated Timosha. Whatever your dream, don’t forget that there is nothing on earth stronger and more devoted than mother’s love.
A. Platanov tried to find the answer to the question: what is most important for a person, what is the basis of life, its meaning. The main idea of the legend: any creature, be it a person, a plant or an animal, fights for life, life on earth is sometimes difficult, joyless, but dear to any living creature.
Reflection. The guys, on pre-prepared pieces of paper in the shape of flowers, write down things without which, in their opinion, a full life is impossible. Their work is written on the board. The teacher summarizes what the children have written.
I wish you to have a cherished dream in your life and that it comes true, but at the same time, that each of you does not forget about your family and friends, about your home.
R. Gamzatov.
Don't leave mothers alone
They grow old from loneliness.
Among worries, falling in love and books
Don't forget to be kind to them.
I would like to end the lesson with these beautiful words. Thank you all very much for your work and activity.

During the classes
I. Organizational moment.

5. Be careful!
II.Motivation of educational activities.
What do we learn in reading lessons?
In reading lessons we learn to speak, read, and retell beautifully.
Therefore, the first place is given to the ability to breathe evenly and deeply - to control your breathing and the ability to speak loudly, loudly, but without shouting.
Speech warm-up
- Tongue exercises:“Roll the ball in your mouth,” “Play the clatter of hooves.”
- Breathing exercises:“Like a ball letting out air.”
- Working on expressive reading(to myself, out loud).
It was quiet in the house in the morning,
I wrote my mother’s name on my palm.
Not in a notebook, on a piece of paper,
Not on a stone wall,
I wrote my mother's name on my hand.
It was quiet in the house in the morning,
It became noisy during the day.
“What did you hide in your palm?” -
They started asking me.
I unclenched my palm, I held happiness.
(Agniya Barto)

- About the separation of mother and son?
- About a ghostly dream that takes a son away from his mother?
- About mother's eternal love?
- About the epiphany of a son who appreciated the power of his mother’s love?
A. Platanov tried to find the answer to the question: what is most important for a person, what is the basis of life, its meaning. The main idea of the legend: any creature, be it a person, a plant or an animal, fights for life, life on earth is sometimes difficult, joyless, but dear to any living creature.
VII. Lesson summary.
In life, each of you will have a dream, like that colorful butterfly that captivated Timosha. Whatever your dream, don’t forget that there is nothing on earth stronger and more devoted than mother’s love.No one can love as devotedly and forgivingly as a mother.
R. Gamzatov.

Among worries, falling in love and books
Don't forget to be kind to them.
I would like to end the lesson with these beautiful words. Thank you all very much for your work and activity.
VSH. Reflection.
The boy didn’t catch his butterfly, and I suggest you draw a sword butterfly, colorful and unusual. It will be yours and will definitely bring you good luck.

Working on the content of the text
Guys, who are the main characters? (Anisya, Timosha)
Where did Anisya live, read the excerpt? (On the shore of the Black Sea... roses grew.)
How old was Anisya?(one and a half centuries)
Why do you think Anisya was angry with Ulyan?
(
because he said that her son died a long time ago)
Why did Timoshka run away from home every morning? (he caught butterflies)
Why didn’t the butterflies fly anymore if Timosha caught them?
Let's remember the episode where it says how Timosha left his mother. (Every day.....)
Guys, where did the path in the mountains come from?
Find a description of the butterfly.
Why did Timosha run after the butterfly?
Why does Timosha want to catch a butterfly and then a star?
(To Timoshucaptivated by beautya magnificent butterfly, and then beckonsgood lightblinking star. Many temptations arise before a child discovering the world! And Timosha is ready to “talk to the stones of the mountains that respond to his voice.” Stretching out his hand for the shining butterfly, the boy invites her: “Let’s talk!”)
What happened to Timosha when he wanted to grab the star?
-What did Timosha do with the sparrow?
-How do you evaluate his actions? (episode reading)
Is it possible to do this?
- Why did the boy start scratching the mountain with his nails?
What events could happen next to Timosha?
Why are Timosha's hobbies dangerous?
(Struck by something new, beautiful, unusual, Timosha renounces what was dear to him before. “And I’ll grab a star!” thought Timosha. “The star is even better, but now I don’t need butterflies.” In the multicolored palette of the world, the boy A new color opens, but other colors fade away - one instead of another. In pursuit of butterflies, Timosha forgets about his mother. Having rushed to the stars, he is ready to forget the butterflies, appropriating it: “I will catch only one butterfly, the best one, the last one. " Then he turns out to be unable to keep the beautiful in his soul: “And I’ll grab the star!”)
-How do you understand your mother’s words: “Let everything be, then you will be too”?
( Kinship , according to the writer, connects everyone on earth. Breaking this connection can lead to disaster. Little Timosha, not knowing what he was doing, stepped onto a dangerous path. Remember how Anisya says, turning to her son: “Let there be butterflies, and mountains, and stars, and you will be with me. Let everything be, then you will be too.”
Denoting the circle of unshakable values, the author writes about his hero: “He forgot about the earth, reached out with his hands to the sky with the stars and stepped with his feet into the abyss.” Having lost everything, at the bottom of the abyss Timosha will remember the coolness of his mother’s house and call in the stony silence: “Mom!” “Timosha worked for whole years... and he still had a long way to go home through the stone.”

Traitscharacter
4 group
What does Timosha do to return home?
( Works , dismantles stones.)
Why is a drop of dew on a blade of grass called “little pure light”?
(In Platonov’s world, everything is alive. Even a lonely blade of grass is endowed with a face and a soul: “Her head looked out from under the cliff at the one who walked on the ground, and a small pure light shone on her face.”)
Who in the story “neither lives nor dies”?
(The question brings the guys back to the title of the story. Yes, this is a butterfly that the boy caught. “She needs to fly to live.”
And who lives and does not die despite the tragic circumstances of fate?
(Mother. And Timosha.)
Why?
What does a person need to live?
What saves Timosha from darkness and the pitch abyss?
( Love, memory . Timosha is saved from the darkness and catastrophic hopelessness of the stone abyss by the memory of his mother and love for her: her voice sounds in his heart, he stretches out his hands towards his home. “Timosha cried in response to his mother’s quiet voice, audible only to him, and he hammered and crushed the stone mountain even more diligently.” He will survive, although he will go to his mother as a blind old man.
Love makes the incredible possible: Anisya lived for a century and a half, waiting for her son. “Until he returns, I must live,” she says to old Ulyan. The mother waited for her son and gave him life for the second time: Timosha, who spent many years in a dungeon and turned into an old man, again becomes a little boy.)
Find a passage at the end of the story that tells how Timosha knocked down the last stones in the mountain and came out to the light to his mother. Read it using the correct intonation.
(The last 6 paragraphs are read expressively by three students.)
Use a quotation to identify the main idea of this passage.
(“The mother’s life with her love passed on to her son, and he became a child again.”)
What role did mom play in Timosha’s life? What was the most important thing in life for him?
(Love for mother, desire to be with her.)
What does A. Platonov convince the reader of with the story “The Multi-Colored Butterfly”?
(Love is the beginning of all beginnings. Kinship, memory, love, work turn out to be forces that save a person in Platonov.)
Is the end of the story bitter or happy for you? (Written answer to the question.)
(A dispute may arise in class.
This is a tragedy: the mother dies and the son is left alone. He was orphaned.
No, this is not a tragedy. The mother waited for her son and breathed her life into him.
- The end of the story is happy, because Timosha felt small, his mother gave him a second life.)
REFLECTION
1 – It was difficult, I couldn’t complete and understand everything.
2 – I managed almost everything myself, but there is still something to work on!
3 – I’m great! Everything worked out for me, I understood everything and it worked perfectly!
Well done. I really liked the way you worked. Did you like the lesson, if so, clap your hands, if not, stomp your feet, if you don’t know yet, just sit down nicely.

Answer questions
On the shores of the Black Sea, where the Caucasus Mountains rise from the shore to the sky, there lived in a stone hut an old woman named Anisya. The hut stood among a flower field in which roses grew. Not far from the flower field there was a beekeeper, and beekeeper Grandfather Ulyan also lived there for a long time. Grandfather Ulyan said that when he was still young and came to the Caucasian side, Anisya was already an old grandmother, and no one then knew how old Anisya was, or since when she had been living in the world. Anisya herself couldn’t say this either, because she forgot. She only remembered that in her time the mountains were young and not covered with forest. This is what she once said to one traveler, and he published her words in his book. But the traveler died long ago, and everyone forgot the book.
Grandfather Ulyan came once a year to visit Anisya; he brought her honey, mended her shoes, checked to see if the bucket was thin, and rearranged the tiles on the roof of the hut so that the rain would not penetrate inside the dwelling.
Then they sat on a stone at the entrance to the dwelling and had a heart-to-heart talk. Old Ulyan knew that he would hardly come to visit Anisya the next year: he was already very old and knew that it was time for him to die.
The last time Ulyan saw Anisya, he noticed that the iron temple of the glasses that Anisya wore had become thin, weaker than a thread, and was about to break - the temple had worn out over time on the bridge of Anisya’s nose. Then Ulyan strengthened the bow with wire so that the glasses would still serve and through them you could look at everything that is in the world.
“What, grandmother Anisya: you and I have reached the end of our life span,” said Ulyan.
“But no, my deadline is not over,” Anisya responded. “I have something to do here, I’m expecting my son.” Until he returns, I must live.
“Well, live,” Ulyan agreed. - I have to go.
Ulyan left and soon died of old age, and Anisya remained to live and wait for her son.
Her son Timosha ran away from home when he was still small, and Anisya was young, and since then Timosha has not returned to his mother. Every morning he ran away from home to the mountains to play there, talk to the stones of the mountains that responded to his voice, and catch colorful butterflies.
By noon, Anisya went out onto the path leading into the mountains and called to her son:
- Timosha, Timosha!.. You got too busy playing again, and you forgot about me.
And her son responded to her from afar:
- Now, mom, I’ll just catch a butterfly.
He caught a butterfly and returned to his mother. At home, he showed the butterfly and grieved that it no longer flies, but only walks quietly little by little.
- Mom, why doesn’t she fly? – Timosha asked, fingering the butterfly’s wings. - Let her fly better. Will she die now?
“He won’t die and won’t live,” said the mother. “She needs to fly to live, but you caught her and took her in your hands, wiped her wings, and she became sick... Don’t catch them!”
Every day Timosha ran up the mountain along an old path. Mother Anisya knew that that path through the small mountain goes to the big one, and from the big one to the high one, where clouds always gather in the evening, and from that high mountain to the fiercest, most terrible peak of all mountains, and there the path goes to the sky. Anisya heard that the path was laid by an unknown man who went along it to heaven through the highest mountain - he left and never returned; he was childless, loved no one in the world, the earth was not dear to him, and everyone forgot him; All that was left of him was a path, and few people walked along that path after him.
Only Timosha ran along this path after butterflies.
One day Timosha was walking home: evening time had come, and the flowers were already dozing in the twilight on the mountainside. A lonely blade of grass grew near the path, its head looked out from under the cliff at the one walking on the ground, and a small clear light shone on its face. Timosha saw that a drop of dew fell on a blade of grass so that she could drink it.
- This is a good drop! – thought Timosha.
Here a large multi-colored butterfly sat on this blade of grass and fluttered its wings. Timosha was frightened: he had never seen such a butterfly before. She was big, like a bird, and her wings were in colors that Timosha had never seen. From the trembling of her wings, it seemed to the boy that the light was leaving her and sounded like a quiet voice calling him.
Timosha extended his hand for the shining, trembling butterfly, but it flew onto a large stone. Then Timosha said to her from afar:
- Let's talk!
The butterfly did not speak or look at Timosha: she was only afraid of him. She must have been unkind, but she was so good...
The butterfly rose from the stone and flew over the path up the mountain. Timosha ran after her to look at her again, because he hadn’t seen enough.
He ran after a butterfly along a path in the mountains, and the night had already darkened above him. He did not take his eyes off the butterfly flying in front of him, and only from memory did he not stray from the path.
The butterfly flew freely as it wanted: it flew forward, backward, in one direction and immediately in the other, as if it was being blown away by an invisible wind, and Timosha, panting, ran after it.
And suddenly he heard his mother's voice.
“You got too busy playing again, you got too busy again, and you forgot about me!”
“Now, mom,” Timosha answered. “I’ll only catch one butterfly, the best one, the last one.”
The butterfly flew past Timosha’s very face: he felt the warm breath of its wings, and then the butterfly was nowhere to be found. He looked for her with his eyes in the air and near the ground, he ran back, but did not find the butterfly.
Night was falling. Timosha ran along the path up the mountain. It seemed to him that the butterfly was glowing with its wings not far from him, and he stretched out his hands behind it. He had already passed small and large mountains and climbed to the most terrible, bare peak of all the mountains, where the path goes to the sky.
Timosha ran to the end of the path and from there he immediately saw the whole sky, and close to him a large, kind, blinking star was shining.
- And I’ll grab the star! – thought Timosha. “The star is even better, but now I don’t need the butterfly.”
He forgot about the earth, reached out with his hands to the sky and fell into the abyss.
The next morning Timosha looked around to see where he was. The bush grew along the steep side of the mountain and came out to the bank of a small stream. That stream began as a spring at the foot of the mountain, then flowed for a short time below on the ground and flowed into a small lake, and from the lake the water rose as a foggy, stuffy steam, because it was hot in this place even in the morning. There were bare walls of mountains all around, reaching up to the high sky, along which no one could climb, but only fly through the air like a butterfly.
Mountains fenced off the bottom of the abyss where little Timosha found himself. He walked all day along the bottom of this abyss, and everywhere there was one stone wall of mountains, along which it was impossible to climb and leave from here. It was hot and tedious here; Timosha now remembered that it was cooler at his mother’s house.
Along the bank of the stream, dragonflies buzzed and lived in the grass and bushes, and the same luminous butterflies that Timosha wanted to catch yesterday flew everywhere. Butterflies fluttered over the hot earth, and the noise of their wings could be heard, but Timosha did not want to catch them, and he was bored looking at them.
- Mother! - he called in the stony silence and began to cry from separation from his mother.
He sat down under the stone wall of the mountain and began to scratch it with his nails. He wanted to rub the stone and go through the mountain to his mother.
Many years have passed since the boy Timosha found himself at the bottom of the stone abyss. Timosha grew up big. He found pieces of the strongest stone that had once fallen from the top of a mountain, and sharpened them on other equally strong stones. With these stones he beat and crushed it, but the mountain was great, and its stone was also strong.
And Timosha worked for whole years, but only dug out a shallow cave in the flint mountain, and he still had a long way to go home through the stone. Looking back from work, Timosha saw colorful butterflies flying in a cloud in the hot air. Not once, since childhood, did Timosha catch another butterfly, and when a butterfly accidentally landed on him, he took it off and threw it away.
Less and less often did he hear his mother’s voice sounding in his heart:
- Timosha, you forgot about me! Why did you leave and not come back?..
Timosha cried in response to his mother’s quiet voice and hammered and crushed the stone mountain even more diligently.
Waking up in a stone cave, Timosha sometimes forgot where he lived, he did not remember that many years of his life had already passed, he thought that he was still small, as before, that he lived with his mother on the seashore, and he smiled again happy and wanted to go catch butterflies. But then he saw that there was a stone near him, and he was alone. He stretched out his hands towards his house and called for his mother.
And the mother looked at the starry sky, and it seemed to her that her little son was running among the stars.
One star flies in front of him, he stretched out his hand to it and wants to catch it, but the star flies further and further from him, into the very depths of the black sky.
Mother counted the time. She knew that if Timosha had run only on the ground, he would have long ago run around the whole earth and returned home. But there was no son, and a lot of time had passed. This means that Timosha has gone further than the earth, he has gone to where the stars fly, and he will return when he has circled the entire circle of the sky. She went out at night, sat on a stone near the hut and looked at the sky. And it seemed to her that she saw her son running in the Milky Way.
The mother spoke quietly:
- Come back home, Timosha, it’s time... Why do you need butterflies, why do you need mountains and the sky? Let there be butterflies, and mountains, and stars, and you will be with me! Otherwise you catch butterflies, and they die, you catch a star, and it darkens. No need, let everything be, then you will too.
And at that time her son was destroying the mountain, grain by grain of sand, and his heart yearned for his mother.
But the mountain was great, life passed, and Timosha became an old man.
And then one day his time came. He heard a bucket rattle from inside the stone mountain. Timosha recognized by the sound that it was their bucket, his mother’s bucket, and shouted so that he could be heard. Indeed, it was Timosha’s mother who came for water; She now took only a quarter of the bucket, because she could not carry any more.
The mother heard someone screaming from the mountain, but did not recognize her son's voice.
- Who are you there? – she asked.
Timosha recognized his mother’s voice and answered:
- Mom, I forgot who I am.
Mother sat down on the stone
the ground and pressed her face to it.
The son knocked down the last stones in the mountain and came into the light to his mother. But he did not see her because he was blind inside the stone mountain. Old Anisya went up to her son and saw an old man in front of her. She hugged him and said:
“I gave birth to you, and you left.” I didn’t raise you, didn’t feed you and didn’t have time to caress you...
Timosha fell to his small, weak mother and heard her heart beating.
- Mom, now I will always be with you!
“But I’ve become old, I’ve lived a century and a half to wait for you, and you’re already old.” I will die soon and will not admire you.
His mother pressed him to her chest; she wanted all the breath of her life to pass to her son, and for her love to become his strength and life.
And she felt that Timosha became lighter. She saw that she was holding him in her arms, and now he was small again, as he had been when he ran away after a multi-colored butterfly. Her life was passed on to her son through love.
The old mother breathed her last happy breath, left her son and died.

Annotation:
At the foot of the Caucasus mountains, on the shores of the Black Sea, grandmother Anisya lived; she was very old and no one knew how old she was. But she couldn't die. She was expecting her son.
When Anisya was young, she had a little son, Timosha. The boy loved to go to the mountains and run after butterflies there. One day, returning home from the mountains, Timosha saw the most beautiful butterfly, the size of a bird and with wings of unprecedented beauty. He chased after her until the night and did not notice how he found himself at the top of the highest mountain. A large star was shining right next to him. He reached out his hands to grab her and fell into a deep abyss. Timosha wandered for a long time along the bottom of the abyss, but never found a way out. Then he found the strongest stones, sharpened them against each other and began to make a passage in the rock. For many years Timosha fought his way through the mountain. During this time, he managed to grow and grow old, and due to his long stay in the dark he became blind.
And now, already a very old man, he finally got out and met his mother, who had been waiting for him for so long. Anisya hugged him, she wanted Timosha to live so much that with her last breath she transferred her vitality to him. Timosha became small again, as he was when he ran away, and Anisya died.
