Mini-projects for the youngest learners"Describing people" (form 2)

Today my second grade students have learnt how to describe people. 
We are so different and there are so many words to describe our appearance: from parts of the body to clothes items.
First of all it's necessary to learn all these words.

 
Let's learn body parts (the videos are taken from English Singsing YouTube channel)

Now let's learn the clothes items

And don't forget to revise the colours. Without them your description is boring.

After learning words it's high time to check our knowledge. So I gave my students this picture and they created their own images.

We all worked in friendly groups 

And here are the results of our team work:

As we can see English is easy and it's a real fun for everyone!

Our school life: Greenwich - 2016

On November 24 my students have taken part in the English language contest "Greenwich - 2016". This year our "English language family" has grown up in number and it's very good, because it means that there are more those who want to know and speak English. 

I am very proud of my students and wish all of them good luck and the best results.

P. S. The answers to the tests will be known on December 12, 2016 ( for more information visit this site  Greenwich )

        The certificates and prizes for the winners will be sent to our school till May, 25 2017.

Many thanks to our participants' parents for their support.

The World Hello Day

Hello, my dear friends!
Have you already said 'hello' to at least ten people today? Why, you ask me?!
Because today is the World Hello Day!!! 
   This day was invented  in 1973 when there was a number of conflicts in the world . The holiday  was offered to celebrate  by two brothers Brian and Michael Maccomack. They said that this festival was a kind of protest against the tense relations between countries. To tell the world about the new holiday  they sent their greetings to many countries. There was only one request - to send the same greeting to another ten people. This idea was immediately  supported by 180 countries.
    This lovely holiday has become multinational and independent of the factors such as occupation, religion or belief. This day brings together children and adults, movie stars and ordinary people - all who want to make the world a more tolerant and friendly.
So I want to send my 'hello' to my friends in the whole world!

School menu:Sandwich Masters contest

On Friday, 18 my 5th grade students took part in the Sandwich Master contest. They have just learnt the topic "Food", so I offered them to check their knowledge with the help of the project work on the topic "School menu".
What do students put in their packed lunch more often? Sandwiches, of course. So why not show creativity. I asked my students to cook their own sandwiches, give them names, write the recipes and represent the information to the class. At the end of the contest we summed up the results and found out that this simple food can be various.

The 1 place winner Ann Shyrokorad and her sandwich called "Appetizing pun"

The 2 place winner Max Lymar and his "Simply sandwich"

The 3 place winner Alex Voropaev and his "Sandwich-pie"

The 3 place winner Kate Julkova and her "Double fish and sausage sandwich"

Congratulations to the winners of the contest. You are real Sandwich Masters!

Working on the project my students were inspired by "Carla's Sandwich" story (Written by: Debbie Herman), which we had listened to before our project work on http://www.storylineonline.net/.
