Comparing schools

Collaboration with Julia Karaban's students. Mystery Skype was the first part of the conference. What a surprise for students - we live in just about 1000 km distance! The second part of the conference is comparing information about our schools. Fine experience and a good way to practise English.

Skype conference. Schools and system of education in New Zealand.

Last week videoconference with Carolyn Knight from New Zealand- an educator and librarian from Wellington, New Zealand. High school students asked questions about the sysytem of education and job opportunities whereas 6th graders asked about usual school day of New zealand students. I'm gratefull to my colleagues- great friends who makes studying English meaningful for my students.

New school year - new global projects

Jennifer Weeast and her friend Ann skyped with my high school students. They answered a lot of questions about choosing a profession, USA and South Korea. Wonderful practice!

PRINCE AND PRINCESS.

Once  upon a  time , a princess lived in high  and  scared  tower. The princess was kind but miserable.

A dangerous big spider was next to the tower. There was a deep swamp  in front of the tower.

A handsome prince saw the princess in the tower. He went with a sword across deep and green swamp.

A kind beautiful princess ran out of the high tower.

The prince and the princess married and lived long and happy.

A lesson for Anna

Once upon a time there lived two sisters. 

One girl’s name was Olya. She  was fourteen. 

The second girl’s name was Anna. She  was eight. 

They lived in a small house.

One day Anna went to the dangerous forest. She saw a wicked wizard under tree. He wanted to steal Anna in  the deep swamp.

 A wise fairy turned the wizard into  an ugly frog. The frog  hid in the deep swamp. The fairy said: “ Anna, do not go to the dangerous forest alone!”

Anna agreed with the kind fairy and went to her small house.  Olya met  her there. Olay was glad. Sisters were cheerful  and happy.

They lived long and happy.
