Week 4: WOW!!! So much ...!!!

So, the fourth week comes to the end! So many interesting things which I've known and so much I want to share with my group mates! 

This is the link how to create "DojoClass" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65kj7ilLfhs

For me it is a very interesting way how to make my lessons more interesting and involve into the learning process not only my pupils but even their parents who will be interested in their children's progress so much because they'll have a great chance to watch it and help their children if they'll need.

Pig & Cookie

When I see the great work of my group mates I remember one funny video about the pig and cookies and one wonderful motto "Never give up!!!" Everybody in our group is a real proof of this motto! If we want to get something we must understand how to get it and GET IT IN ANY CASE!!!

My work for my gifted pupils!

Hello Everyone! I want to introduce my small project about my gifted pupils and Individual Development Program for them! What do you think about it? I'd like to know your opinions:)

Week 3 Interesting thought!

Have you ever stayed on the highest bridge for jumping?

 You are afraid of it but you want to do it so much:)

I compare my participating in this course to the jumping! It is very fearfully to study because there is so MUCH information but it is very tempting to study because there is so much INTERESTING information!!!

New Thoughts!

What a wonderful work I've done this week! I'm very proud of the fact that I could do so much for not so long time! But there were some difficulties. For example I didn't understand the ABCD Objective work at once. I was so frustrated but I decided to do everything to the best end. I've found so many materials and links for reading. Now I'm very interested in what I do. As for my first steps in the work about Project Task#1, when I began to ask my pupils many questions about Internet and their digital devices they told me so much interesting and together we decided to make on big project "Using Digital Devices at the English lessons: for and against". My pupils collect all appropriate materials because it will be not just an usual project but we decided to organize debates about the theme of our project. I'm afraid a little bit because they prepare all by themselves. It was their own wish. But I understand that they need it and of course, I need it, too

Week 2 - Websearching

Hello Everyone!

If you read this message it means that I am here again! :)

I thought I know how to use Internet and find useful information as for me so for my students but today I understand that Internet is so wide that I could spend whole my life but I couldn't explore the hundredth part of all that is in this Great Web. My pupils like the moments the best when I ask them to make a project or any creative works and find information in Internet. It looks like a game but I understand that this game becomes more than just a game and produces results imperceptibly. As for me so for my students websearching is the greatest results work where everybody of my pupils can feel that he or she can do more than he or she is expected of.

This is a Diploma of my student who won a Competition in 2014. Without my help he found the site which held this competition. He asked me to help him and we did it. It was so wonderful as for him so for me, too!
Every time I make my pupils to do something more than they can. They used to find something new and interesting for them. They come at the English lessons not for only to learn new grammar or a rule they want to know more and more and sometimes I can't keep up with them. They use so many devices and earlier I was so frustrated. It seemed to me that my lessons were boring and my pupils found the ways to have a good time. One day I decided to benefit from those things which prevented me. I offered my pupils to find and report at our lessons the information which was interesting for them. Oh, it looked like the great craziness and I understood the greatest usefulness of Websearching. Sometimes Iwas so excited to listen to my students.When my pupils say "Oksana Valeryevna, it is so easy!", I embarrass a little bit but at once I try "to catch the wave" as my children say:) because it is very important for me to know what they know and to do what they can do. As for me, my pupils and their big wish to know look like a good sign that my work is effectual!!

Week1 Thoughts

So many impressions of all that is happening. I always admire people who do not stand still, and try to learn something new and interesting. The beginning of the work - our acquaintance looks like a holiday where many strangers came. They learn, communicate and become like one big happy family. I hope very much that it will happen in our case and we can be one big family and work together for the best results.
As for me - I live in a small but the most wonderful town in the world. If you don't believe me I invite you and you'll see I'm right!

As for my profession, it is not just work for me. It is something special. I think everybody agrees that to be a teacher is too hard but it's very interesting. I understand the sense of my work when I see my pupils and their results. Then I understand my efforts aren't meaningless. Every lesson I try to give my students something new and interesting. That's why I'm very happy to learn this course. It gives me a great opportunity to make my lessons more interesting and deeper!
