Life outdoor is better

There are 8 principles of health and being outdoors is one of them. Because spring 🌷 and summer☀️are seasons when you can be outside more often, so we decided to talk about that.

We discussed some questions and shared our opinions wheather it’s better to spend vacations in nature🏕️ or in a 🏙️, which things we like about countryside and what are disadvantages of it. We also reminisced about our past outdoor adventures in our Kherson Oblast 🌊⛵️. 

Of course we had some time for new phrases and idioms on this topic which we could practice afterwards. Thank to our native speaker 🇨🇦🇺🇸 who helps us improve our speaking in a fun way 😊.

Coffee Culture

Have you heard the term “Coffee Culture”? That’s the culture where people like to drink coffee or visit cafes ☕️ 🍽️

The last English Speaking Practice we dedicated to one of the most popular drinks in the world - coffee ☕️. We revised the types of coffee, after that we shared our favorite flavors and best memories related to it. We discussed where the most delicious coffee is and when this coffee trend became popular in Ukraine 🇺🇦.

Is sport your thing?

Almost all Ukrainians are still excited about the professional boxing match 🥊 contested between WBC champion Tyson Fury and unified WBA champion Oleksandr Usyk where our 🇺🇦sportsman won by split decision 🙌. Congratulations 🎊

Of course our Speaking Practice could not be about something else but Sport Edition. We shared our thoughts about that match, we discussed questions related to our life and completed sentences with sport phrasal verbs. There’s a good tendency among people to take up new activities, sport events and keep fit.

Family Ties

All families are unique, but they all have some things in common - love ❤️ and support 👐. Thus the last English Speaking Practice was dedicated to relationships and Family Day which was celebrated yesterday in Ukraine. With the members of the meeting we discussed some topic questions, shared our pleasant family moments with each other, thought about family features and how to cope with common family issues. Traditionally we looked through some expressions and idioms in English, such as

- cut from the same cloth;

- an apple doesn’t fall far from the tree;

- take after someone;

- run in the family etc.

If you want to know more expressions or just improve your speaking, we invite you to join us

Let's unite for the future

Europe Day which is held on May 9, celebrates peace 🕊️ and unity 🤝. The English Speaking Practice couldn’t miss the chance to talk about life values and principles. We started off with a discussion of the EU motto “United in Diversity” and shared our thoughts why it’s important to be united and how we can interact with other people. After that we looked through the 6 priorities of the European Commission 2019-2024 and compared them with different countries and our own lives.

We are so grateful that lots of countries support Ukraine and its people during this hard time. And we do believe that soon Ukraine will be a part of that Union 💫.

Світовий тур бібліотеками

І знову віртуально подорожували 🧳 бібліотеками світу з учнями 4 класу ЗЗНЗ 54 м. Херсона. «Відвідали» топ-8 книгозбірень по всьому світу, дізналися цікаві факти про них та перевіряли свої знання, граючи у вікторину «True/ False». Звісно ж увагу діток привернула й @library_kherson_ua . Адже неповторний дизайн кожного відділу захоплює та змушує зупинитися, щоб розгледіти все. Тому для дітей теж була представлена гра на уважність Scavenger Hunt, де учні займалися пошуком різних предметів. Ну і якже без практики англійської 😁. Наприкінці заходу усі присутні ставили питання та давали відповіді щодо існування певних предметів у нашій книгозбірні 👐.
