Unusual lessons: Sporty lesson/Нестандартні уроки: Спортивний урок.

Unusual lessons are always interesting not only for pupils but for their teachers, too. As for me I am always ready to have fun with my pupils;) And after these lessons children better remember new words and word combinations. 
Today my seven formers have had the unusual lesson on the topic "Sport in our life". We have learnt new words and phrases, read about sport in our country and English-speaking countries and... played sport games in the classroom!:) It was possible due to table games. My pupils played mini football:

billiard

practised to throw the ball

and had fun with bowling

And we are going to share our impressions from the sports at our next lesson. 

Make your lessons unusual and learn English with pleasure!;)

Day of Kindness/День Добра

February is rather cold. This year it's even colder than other winter months. That's why sometimes it seems to me that winter is very long and spring is not going to come. As I see I'm not the only one who thinks so. 
But today it has been sunny and my mood has changed for the better. Maybe it's because of the sun or maybe because of the day. 
Today is the Day of Kindness, my friends!;)
But I think that kindness should appear not only once but all the time. And I'm sure that you'll agree with me.
 
But 

So

And be always kind and think only positively!;)
Remember!

English for young learners: Past Simple and ed/Англійська для наймолодших:Минулий час та закінчення ed.

Ending ED is very changable. Sometimes it's called [d], sometimes it's called [t] or sometimes it's called [id]. 

If you want to know how to name ED correctly, pay attention to the verbs with which ED goes for a walk.


And now let's watch an interesting story about ED's trip to the past:

School is Fun/Школа - це весело.

This post I've decided to devote to those pupils who don't like school. In fact they like school because school is a place where you can get useful and interesting information, to learn something new and have fun with your friends and cooperate. And every person has a great desire to widen his or her horizon. It's quite obvious that school is the place where you can easily do it. You just have to follow special rules like you do when you play a computer game.
And here they are - the special rules for all pupils:


Play according to the rules and your school will be fun for you. Good luck!;)

Love is in the air

Today is a special day. Its atmosphere is full of romantice and love. Every year on February 14 all people in the world open their hearts for love and try to do something special for their sweethearts.
Somebody cooks a romantic breakfast:

Somebody prepares a romantic dinner with candles:

People even build monuments devoted to love. 
In Odessa (Ukraine) you can see this Heart in Love:

This Heart in Love keeps more than a thousand beautiful love stories.
And in Paris, the city of love, you can read "I love you" in all languages of the world.This phrase is written on Love Wall that was built specially for St. Valentine's Day in Monmantre.
So as you can see love is in the air and I wish you to breathe this air all your life.
Happy Valentine's Day! 
And let's watch a romantic video about tiny hamsters' date;)

Happy Valentine's Day!/З Днем Закоханих!/С Днем Влюбленных!;)

Дві речі між людьми найбільшого вартують,

Життя й кохання - тіло і душа.

Без духа тіло - прах, його вітри роздують

Й знаку не стане, заросте трава

Так без кохання і життя тьмяніє

Як лист осінній піде в небуття

Щасливий той, хто зрозуміть зуміє

Що лиш Любов - продовження життя.

З днем Закоханих, дорогі друзі! 

Любові, удачі, радості від життя і оточення! 

Хай у ваших серцях  завжди живе  кохання!

While you breathe - you just breathe

But while you love - you live.

Edward Asadov
Happy Valentine's Day, my dear friends!

Пока ты дышишь - ты всего лишь дышишь,

А вот пока ты любишь - ты живешь.

Эдуард Асадов

С Днем Влюбленных, дорогие друзья!

English for young learners: Learn English with Fun/Англійська мова для наймолодших: Вивчаємо англійську жартома.

The first formers open the door to the world of knowledge for the first time and new information is very interesting for them. But sometimes it's hard for little children to learn new words. So I try to make the process of learning English for my young learners interesting and funny. When we started to learn the topic"Animals" we created  funny ducks and sang a funny song "Five little ducks". 

It was a great fun!;) 

If you want to have a little fun, just sing a song:)

My pupils' projects:Creating a Newspaper/Проекти моїх учнів:Створення газети.

Creating a newspaper is a very interesting work. So my 8th formers decided to write their own newspapers full of interesting information while learning the topic "Mass media".
Being editors and reporters is an exciting and very creative work:

And here are the results! The winners of our project exhibition are Diana Grebenkova and Valery Lymar!

Well done, girls!;)

And now let's read some tips for writing a newspaper:

• find a partner for a team work
• find interesting information and photos
• make colomns and sort out your information
• write the titles for your columns
• choose interesting and actual information
• use photos or draw your own pictures according to the chosen information
• be creative!;)

Happy Groundhog Day!С Днем Сурка!;)

Do you feel the smell of spring? A famous groundhog Phil is sure that spring is coming soon.
So is Ukrainian groundhog Timka from Kharkov. 
On February,2  Americans celebrate one of their favorite holidays - Groundhog Day. They believe that on this day  the groundhog's behavior will show when spring comes. Lovely tradition of   weather prediction has appeared in Ukraine, too.
Let's get to know more about groundhogs and weather prediction from this video:

So, let's wait for spring and Happy Groundhog Day, my dear friends!;) 

Hello, February!;)

Today is the first day of February and the last month of winter, and I say hello to February because I'm glad that spring is on its way. And I'm looking forward to shining sun, warmth and fresh spring air. It's have been raining all day long. It's neither winter nor spring but nevertheless it's February. Let's hope it will be good!;)
