Happy Halloween!!!;)

Today is Halloween, my friends! Are you ready for

Here are some trick-or-treat poems for you:

Trick or treat, you're so neat.

Give us something good to eat.
Nuts and candy, fruit and gum.
We'll go away if you give me some.

Trick or treat, smell my feet.

Give me something good to eat.
If you don't, I won't be sad.
I'll just make you wish you had!

Pumpkin Head

We bought a pumpkin big and round

that lived the summer through

without an eye to look at things ...

and now it looks through two.

It used to be all dark inside

when growing on the vine,

but now it has a toothy smile

and face that's full of shine.

                  By Aileen Fisher

Apple Bobbing 

You wouldn't believe
On All Hallow Eve
What lots of fun we can make,
With apples to bob,
And nuts on the hob,
And a ring-and-thimble cake.

                    By Carolyn Wells

My pupils like reciting Halloween poems and making special masks:

And what about you?

Back to the Future

Hey, guys, have you looked at your calendar yet?!

Yes, you are absolutely right. Today is October, 21 2015 and that's the date when in film Back to the Future II, Marty McFly visits the future and witnesses all kinds of new technology such as power shoelaces, a flying hover boards

 and  food hydrator. 

Remember the cinema special effects

Though we haven't got any of these wonderful inventions now, the trilogy Back to the Future is still the best and my favourite film. ( and I'm pretty sure not only mine;))
Let's watch a funny movie Back to the Future in actual 2015 from CollegeHumor

By the way if you had this time machine what period would you choose?

A  game for revision of new words:

English for young learners: Autumn/Англійська для наймолодших: Осінь

This is autumn now. It's cold and rainy. There are many mushrooms in autumn. Halloween is in autumn and many-many orange, red and yellow leaves are falling down.

A funny PT minute will be very useful for your pupils this cold autumn.

And let's sing a lovely autumn song:

Talking about family/Розмови про родину

"My family" is the most used topic at the lessons during revision period. So I've decided to prepare a special post for everybody who learns English.
Let's revise the words of the topic"Family"

And now let's practise using the words in sentences. Good luck!;)

Ua:Ми знову в школі, а, отже, час повторити англійські літери та звуки. Тож давайте зробимо це за допомогою цих кумедних пісень.
Готові?! Поїхали!!!;)

Hello autumn!;)

I can smell autumn dancing in the breeze,
The sweet chill of pumpkin
And crisp sunburnt leaves!
Ok, guys, this is autumn! Sunny summer days are over and we all already miss them so much

But what is autumn? You'll say it's yellow leaves

and heavy rains

And it's time when students come back to school

Yeah, you are right, on the one hand.

But on the other hand autumn is the time of warm hugs

hot tea 

walking in the park

creating hand-made things

(As for me, I've created these things specially for this autumn harvest:)

And of course it's time for a warm blanket and watching interesting films with friends

No matter what you'll do, do it with pleasure, my dear friends! Enjoy this autumn!;)
