     Now our lessons are devoted to 4 skills. The first skill is listening. It's receptive skill. We spoke about intensive and extensive listening, listening levels and skills, listening principles, criteria to choose a suitable listening text, writing questions to go with an authentic listening text , staging a listening lesson.
      And now some words about my lesson. It was devoted  Money. My pupils heard the dialog   between 2  students. They heard 2 times. It's good, at least 2 times they had to listen  for practicing. Then they did activities according to the material, which they had heard.
    It's  important to remember about  peculiarities of you pupils' age.  However, a number of important differences between adult and child learning and between first and second language acquisition must be carefully accounted for.  For example, primary school students have their peculiarities, we should think about it. In the first part of lesson student should  recognize, understand. The second part of lesson  is devoted to practice.  Remember it.




                                                            
 
    Next  week was devoted to teaching pronunciation. We had 2 lesson , for the first one we prepared seminar about teaching pronunciation. We spoke about presentation of new material, system of exercises for consolidation, classroom techniques and materials, pronunciation practice. Of course we spoke about methods in teaching pronunciation. We can read words all together(I mean pupils), then as groups. then individually. And It's good idea to use rhymes.
I know some, but I'll add rhymes.
  I would like to speak about knowledge of children's learning of their first language provides
essential insights to an understanding of SLA. If he oder she  did not know his language and he /she can't  understand it. Also I wanted to  speak  about my lesson.  The theme are English speaking  countries. Pupils were taught  how correctly pronounce word. System of activities for  teaching pronunciation. It's important of course.
   Our next week was devoted to teaching vocabulary. Of course, before lessons planning we had the seminar devoted to teaching vocabulary. We spoke about how to present a  new material, activities to familiarize students with new vocabulary, creative and productive exercises,vocabulary assessment.
   But I would like to write about my lesson. The theme was Seasons. I prepared cards, presentation, activities. It had a system of  activities. First of all it's recognition  of new words, their pronunciation, spelling, meanings. Then we will use it in practice with help of exercises like matching, drill, speech preparatory exercises, communicative usage.
  It's important to teach vocabulary. You should increase their lexicon. Then they will be able to produce a good speech, with synonyms, without mistake.
