what should we do? (part-6)

Well, we should do some extra works if we are parents or teachers of little kids. Specially, when we try to help them to learn spelling. I have found some  helpful tricks . So, want to share with you.

1. Teach them with rhyming words, e.g. book, cook, look. And, try to make more.

2. Tell them similar words, you may ask them to find out/ write down some similar words, e.g. far, fur, see, sea, to, two.

3. Putting a letter before a word, e.g. table- stable, high-thigh.nail-snail, ear-hear.

4. Put one/t

Letters to Santa:)

About two years ago I organised the concert for my students, it was dedicated to Christmas. So the main topic was letters to Santa Clause.

This year I found some recordings and these letters. I didn't pay attention so much then that a lot of students didn't want any material presents, for example, one boy wanted to get a little brother and one girl wanted her parents to live together. Little child becomes a personality earlier when he or she had to face with really bad things.
I think that if the

How long have you been working on that book now? Months? Years? Or you already lost the count because you have been struggling to track your progress? However, you’re still working on it and you have the desire to finish it and check off one of the things on your bucket list.

However long it has been, if you feel that it's time to get it published – and you've done everything in your power to make it worth publishing – then it's time to make the decision of how exactly to get it published.

Hello, my dear friends!
 
Do you ever wish you were able to play a musical instrument? The truth is we all do, don’t  we?  (Hope I’m  not bending the truth!)  Unfortunately,  there  could  be  some justifiable grounds for your dream failed to materialize. Perhaps you don’t have the means to own, for example, a piano as it costs you an arm and a leg. If you are one of those disappointed souls, the following instr

#UNNAMEDFEELINGS


No one ever tells you that people will leave your life, unannounced.
Sometimes they leave the earth, sometimes they just leave you.
Things continue.
Tomorrow you will wake up and the sun will be kissing your eyelids and it will be a new day for you to drink too much coffee and reread an old book.
you will be okay.
No one ever tells you that, either.
Days will melt together like some candle you burned down to scraps, and seasons will change.
You will fall in and out of love with yourself more times t

New year resolutions

Hi guys.

Today, I would like to drop some lines about our new years resolutions. Some of us would like to go on a diet, some would like to change job, some would like to move home, and some would like travel around the world. Those resolutions are great and I hope you will be able to achieve as many goals as you have. However, I know that many of us have set the following aim: by the end of 2015 I will have been speaking in English, as a matter of fact, that is why we are here. Then, the question

79) “Photograph” and “Photographer” – Mistaking German for English: A fotograf in German and other languages, including Slovak, is a photographer in English, the person who creates photos with a camera. A photograph is the image created:

“The photographer took my photograph.”

Mom and son

Last night, while I was walking down the street with my 9 year old son in the cool breezy evening of the late autumn, he suddenly said excitingly "Mom, I smell something great". "What is that, honey? Is it autumn flower fragrance? Wow, what a relaxed and fresh feeling!". "No, mom, it seems to be fried sausage' flavor. Tasty!!!"...oO)
