Creative writing



 Last Sunday I and my colleague tried to write creative story. The topic was interesting. Imagine that a meteor will destroy the planet in a year. How will you spend the last year of your life?


Olympic Games

On the one of my English lessons we spoke about Olympic Games. The Olympic Games have a very long history. They began in 777 BC in Greece and took place every four years for nearly twelve centuries at Olympia. They included many different kinds of sport: running, boxing, wrestling etc. For the period of the Games all the wars stopped. So the Olympic Games became the symbol of peace and friendship.

Jack London

On the lesson of World Literature I told to the pupils the biography of Jack London. His life was very hard. He worked all day and all night to earn money. But he was really talanted person. His works are tragic and instructive. Here you can read about this writer:

Music in Great Britain

On my first lesson in tenth form we spoke about music in Great Britain. There are many different musicians and bands in Great Britain, which are famous all over the world. These are the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Cure, Elton John, Freddie Mercury, Sting etc.




Seminar

My methodist invited me and my collegue to visit a seminar about creative writing. Few years ago I tried to write a composition, but I didn't get any awards. On this seminar I learned that teachers can help to the pupils to think creative. But in some way it is congenital deposit of each person. Many teachers prepared interesting reports about their experience in this area. And on Sunday I and my collegue are going to write creative compositions.

Event that happened with me during one of my first lessons

As you know not all love to read. Especially pupils of the sixth form. They had to read a novel, but when the lesson started, I saw that only half of the pupils were ready with this task. And I worked only with pupils, which had read. The teacher left me alone, and the rest of the pupils began to misconduct. I tried to calm them down, but they didn't respond to my comments. I decided to ignore them and work only with those who were ready to the lesson. And it was my fault. One of the pupils broke up the piece of the furniture. To my hapiness we found who had done it. Remember that teacher is responsible for the school goods.

My first lesson of World Literature

Few days before the lesson teacher asked me to prepare a biography of the writer. I reviewed several books and found informaton about given author. I also found many interesting facts about Jules Verne, printed them and went to conduct the lesson. Before the lesson I worried, but when I said the first sentence, my agitation disappeared. Pupils were listening attentively to me. Than I put them a lot of questions and to my big suprise their answers were exact. But when I looked at my watch, I saw that ten minutes  left. That's why I began to haul the time. I asked them again and again, there were not any pupils that I didn't ask. As you understood, I advise you to prepare some additional information or questions, because they will never be redundant.

Here you can find information about my feelings and impressions during this practice, some tips from my own experience and I hope you can use it in your own life (if your life is devoted to teaching)

Last Monday I had my first English lesson and, to say the truth, I was afraid, because I had never conducted the lessons before. When I came to the class and was trying to prepare to the lesson, I saw that I couldn't use computer, because something was wrong with it. And then I got nervous, but my colleague helped me, she said that everything would be okay. After this, to my greatest suprise, came only four students, and it was easy for me to concentrate and to speak with them. Maybe this lesson wasn't like I planned it, but I think that students coped with all tasks I gave them. And I have to add that the second lesson I had was better for me because I didn't worry, although there were ten students.
