Christmas gathering

This year for Christmas we organised a Christmas gathering. The students performed one short play in Macedonian and one in English. A group of students sang some traditional Christmas carols in both languages and the parents contributed to the event by providing home made food. The guest of honour was the British ambassador to Macedonia  Charles Edmund Garrett with his family.

English corner in the classroom

It's always important to display the work of the students so that the others can see them and the students themselves can feel proud of their work.
However, during the holidays we tend to make the English corner a bit more interesting and funny.
This is what we did this year for Christmas.
I used photos of the kids and a paper doll template of Santa and Mrs. Santa :)

CHRISTMAS BRUNCH- crafts display and food - Learning can be fun!

My opinion is that learning a language does not only focus on vocabulary and grammar of a certain language but also learning about a different culture, customs, holidays and habits. That’s why I try to present this and cherish this as much as I can with my students. This is how we learn about Christmas.

Christmas is the time of year where good will and joy are all around us. Last year we decided to organize a Christmas Brunch. The whole event was organized in the way that we had a Christmas crafts display in the hall of the school, a group of Carolers performing traditional English and Macedonian songs, as well as some traditional American/ British and Macedonian Christmas dishes.

This is just a glimpse of all the crafts and decorations the students prepared. The delicious food was prepared by the students’ parents. We did a research on the traditional dishes, gave them the recipes and voila:)

This is how my students performed the carols. My colleague and I made the costumes out of different kinds of paper. It took some time and effort but it was worth it!
