A Visit to Dylim

The video conference was great and produced a great impression upon our guests. The students from the Dylym Gymnasium decided to participate in the Global classroom program too and invited us to visit their Gymnasium the following Monday to be present at the opening ceremony of the Week of the English Language. And so on   February, 1, on Monday, our delegation made a short trip to the mountains. The road was very good, as it was rather warm and the ice melted. It didn’t take us long to get to the village.   Educators and students met us and saw us to the assembly hall Hall, where the meeting was to take place. As the children expressed their wish to participate via the Internet in the International Program Global classroom, we spent the first part of meeting   introducing the program.  Students and I spoke about the program, benefits of online communications, implementation of the program and advantages of the eye-eye talk with the students not only from America but from France, India. Israel, Pakistan, Palestine, Japan, etc. The second part was devoted to the presentations "Dagestan is my Home and Hearth" and "Dagestan is the Most Attractive Place for Tourism" which were made by my Access students.   Knowing how hard it is to buy books in English in the village, we presented some books and games, among which were the books “Lessons in Kindness ", with the stories written by the access students in Russia. It was nice seeing the authors of the stories introducing the book. Meeting was held in cordial atmosphere. The students from Dylym promised to come   with the presentation of their own home.  The result of the visit was great -    many children expressed their desire to participate in the International Program “Global classroom”,  and use tutorials on the Internet. Hopefully many guys from mountain auls will find friends   not only in the English-speaking countries, but also in other countries of the world, whose children learn English
