On Monday, December 28th Window on America for Future Leaders Kherson had an English Speaking Practice where we gathered for the last time in 2020. We all reflected on year that passes and shared the most memorable moments of it with each other. But of course there was something that we all regretted in some way so we learned how to use "Wish: expressing regret". Firstly we looked at the grammar rules and then practiced them doing a "Photocaption activity". We also made up a story which is one of our favorites. It is a great way to improve our speaking. Thank all our friends from the United States, Kazakhstan and different Ukrainian cities (Lviv, Kharkiv, Kherson) for participating. See you all next year 😊.

Holiday Celebrarions
There’s one good thing about online English practices and that is meeting people from different cities and even countries. Yesterday, Window on America for Future Leaders Kherson met visitors from Kharkiv, Dnipro, Kazakhstan and the Netherlands. We all gathered via Zoom and had a great opportunity to practice our English with native speakers, our friends from America. We did the activity called "Christmas brainstorming" where we went through some categories such as Food, Decorations, Traditions and Christmas problems that can appear during the holiday season. It was also exciting to compare the celebrations of Christmas around the world and share some our vivid memories with each other. Thank you all for participating and having a great time together. See you on Monday at 4pm.

"Would you rather...?"
One of the best way to learn English and improve speaking is to play different Board games 🎲♟. That’s why Window on America Center for Future Leaders dedicated this meeting to playing. We started with an icebreaker “Two truths and a lie“ and then we chose the “Would you rather ...” game to play from “Activate: Games for learning American English”. But before that we revised the grammar namely using the "Prefer and Would rather" constructions. So we all had fun while answering the random questions.
What about you: Would you rather learn English by playing games or reading books 📚?

Святкуйте разом з нами!
Інформаційний центр «Вікно в Америку для майбутніх лідерів» продовжує свої онлайн-засідання англомовного клубу щопонеділка та щочетверга. Вчорашнє засідання ми присвятили святам, а саме Дню Подяки, яке відзначали американці минулого четверга та дню народження, який святкували двоє наших активних членів клубу.
На початку ми відповіли на деякі запитання та поділилися своїми враженнями стосовно традицій та святкування. Також клубівці ознайомилися з деякими фразовими дієсловами та практикували їх використання під час вправи «Make a story», де кожний мав змогу скласти речення тим самим продовжуючи історію за заданою темою.
