THE YEAR OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS UNDERWAY IN UKRAINE. CONSIDERING THIS ESSENTIAL THING FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE YOUNG GENERATION, OUR SCHOOL IS KEEN ON PROVIDING THE PUPILS WITH THE ACTIVITIES THAT CAN BECOME AN APPROPRIATE BASE TO IMPROVE THEIR COMMAND OF ENGLISH .
ON March 15TH , 2016 THE ENGLISH TEACHERS M.S.OREL O.V.SHRAMKOVA HELD THE MEETING “SPEAKING CLUB” ON THE TOPIC “CHALLENGE/SUCCESS/AWARD” AMONG 8TH FORMERS . THE AIM OF THE EVENT WAS TO PRACTICE THEIR ENGLISH BEYOND SOME TRADITIONAL CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES, CREATE THE ATMOSPHERE CLOSE TO THE AUTHENTIC ONE AND, OF COURSE, TO GET SOME FUN, RELAX AT THE END OF THE LONG WORKING DAY, BUT STILL SPEAK ENGLISH.
THE EVENT HAD THE FORM OF THE COMVERSATION WITH THE ELEMENTS OF GAME WHICH UNITED PUPILS MAKING THEM COMFORTABLE TO EXPOSE THEIR LANGUAGE. PUPILS WERE OFFERED SOME VIDEOS FOR THEIR LISTENING AND COMPREHENSION ON THE TOPIC GIVEN; THEY WERE CHALLENGED WITH THE QUIZ QUESTIONS DEVELOPING THEIR OUTLOOK AND BROADENING THEIR INTELLECTUAL HORIZONS. WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT, OUR PUPILS MANAGED TO EXPRESS THEIR LANGUAGE BEING PUSHED BY THE TEACHERS DESPITE ALL THE DIFFICULTIES AND MISTAKES, AS THE MAIN PURPOSE OF SUCH KIND OF ACTIVITIES TO HELP PUPILS TO IMPLEMENT THEIR LANGUAGE IN REAL LIFE, TO GIVE THEM SIGNIFICANT TIPS ON GRAMMAR, VOCABULARY, PHONETICS AND THEIR INTERACTION IN THE FLUENT SPEECH ITSELF.
