English
club for children, who I have the honour to run, will soon celebrate one month anniversary. ;)
Because of that we already have some information about this activity to share
with you. Well, according to first idea English Club was meant
to be twice a week, but so many children wanted to take part in it, that first
idea had been converted to a second idea . So now there are two kinds of
English Club - for children up to 7 years old once a week, and for children
from 7 to 15 twice a week. Together with
smaller children during this month we were discovering the world of the English
alphabet – on every meeting children
learned some letters and the name of one animal. Every meeting contains also
drawing, colouring, cutting and gluing some pictures , so children have no
possibility to be bored. English Club for older children is different, because
they already know the Latin alphabet and some of them also have English lessons
in school. During this month we have been working with such basics topics like
numbers, colours etc. I am doing my best
to make them learn new words already during meeting, so there is a lot of
repetition, cross-words, but also games which helps them arrange new words in
their memory. My aim is to make them use some simple sentences in English
during our lessons, so topics scheduled for this club are quite untypical, but
I hope that results will be visible soon. Moreover, if children will be still
as eager to learn English as they are now, I am planning to make with them some
an English speaking play. So be ready for that! :)
I am also
running embroidery club which take place every Friday and it is time during
which children can exercises their fingers, but also have rest for mind thanks
to relaxing music which is accompanying us. Now we are embroidering some
characters from cartoons like e.g.
Donald Duck. It takes a lot of time for children to finish one picture,
but they are patient and they don’t give up even if thread muddling over and
over again.
