Идея достаточно проста: «заходи, выбирай, печатай, развивай»… Если немного развить, то задумка создания ресурса бесплатных развивающих игр родилась в ходе очередного похода в магазин за игрушками для своей дочери. Проведя в отделах любимого магазина определенное время и посчитав сколько денег нужно будет потратить, пришлось от некоторых желаний отказаться… После чего родилась мысль: «А почему мы не можем такие игры сделать сами? Принтер есть, бумага есть, нужно только нарисовать и поработать в редакторе». Вот так и было положено начало. Какие преимущества дает наш сайт: 1. 2.

What are Communicative Activities? Communicative activities include any activities that encourage and require a learner to speak with and listen to other learners, as well as with people in the program and community. Communicative activities have real purposes: to find information, break down barriers, talk about self, and learn about the culture. Even when a lesson is focused on developing reading or writing skills, communicative activities should be integrated into the lesson.

Furthermore, research on second language acquisition (SLA) suggests that more learning takes place when students are engaged in relevant tasks within a dynamic learning environment rather than in traditional teacher-led classes (Moss & Ross-Feldman, 2003). How do I know to what degree an activity is communicative? Many teachers make the mistake of thinking they are getting their learners to speak, when in fact, the learner is not. Consider the following questions.

Perhaps you spend a lot of time lecturing at the white board, use the same activities with different vocabulary for every unit, or rely on teaching students grammar because that's how you were taught.

No matter your "go to" activity, we are all much more engaging when we vary our activities and make them relatable. If the speaker is engaging, a good lecture every now and then is enjoyable. However, when faced with daily lectures, students dread class, and hence, learn less. When dreaming up new activities, our main focus should always be authenticity. In a previous Edutopia post, I outlined how to best shape a unit around communication. Interpretive Mode Read children’s stories. Interpersonal Mode Engage your students in these activities: Sign a contract on the first day of school promising to use only the target language within your classroom walls.

Learning the alphabet is the first step to learning the Russian language. Even if you don't plan to learn the language, knowing the alphabet is great for travelling because you can read all the street and shop signs. It may seem daunting to learn a new alphabet, but it is relatively easy. In fact, the great thing about Russian is that almost all words can be sounded out as they are written. Unlike English where the pronunciation of a word may not be clear from its written form. Russian also has one letter to one sound, unlike English where two letters often make one sound.

(Example “sh”). Either before or after this lesson we recommend you print the alphabet table, and stick it up next to the computer (or around the house), to help you with the following lessons. The Russian alphabet is also known as the Cyrillic alphabet. Now let's have a look at these letters in detail. Russian letters that are (almost) the same. New Russian letters and sounds Video. Principles of Language Teaching, W. Rivers 1997. As fashions in language teaching come and go, the teacher in the classroom needs reassurance that there is some bedrock beneath the shifting sands. Once solidly founded on the bedrock, like the sea anemone the teacher can sway to the rhythms of any tides or currents, without the trauma of being swept away purposelessly. It is fun to sway to new rhythms, but as we ourselves choose, not under the pressure of outsiders who do not understand the complexities of our situation.

Teachers need the stimulation of new thinking and new techniques to keep a fresh and lively approach to their teaching, but without losing their grip on enduring truths of learning and teaching that have proved to be basic to effective language experiences. An explication of the Ten Principles will help the teacher distinguish between what is fundamental and what is expendable.
