Závery z diskusie

Zhoda

  • Weby www.englishpage.com a http://www.sitesforteachers.com/index.html sú v diskusii uvádzané ako užitočné zdroje na gramatiku a cvičenia.
  • Počúvanie anglických pesničiek a rýmovačiek (English lullabies, Ten Green Bottles) a sledovanie detských programov v angličtine (Thomas the Tank Engine) sú praktické metódy na zvyknutie dieťaťa na jazyk.


Sporné názory

  • Niektorí diskutéri tvrdia, že prepínanie jazykov môže dieťa zmiasť; iní tvrdia, že systém "one parent–one language" alebo používanie jazyka v konkrétnych situáciách dieťaťu pomáha naučiť sa, kedy ktorý jazyk používať.


Otvorené otázky

  • Koľko hodinovej expozície angličtine denne potrebujú malé deti, aby dosiahli funkčnú úroveň plynulosti?
  • Aká je optimálna kombinácia samoučenia (CD/MP3, piesne, filmy) a formálnych kurzov alebo konverzačných hodín pre dospelých študentov, aby videli rýchle zlepšenie?

I wonder,what do you do to practice your English?..because I was thinking about "a learner´s portfolio", I used to have one few months ago, in which I recorded everything I studied,new vocabulary, writings, useful expressions....I think I should do the same now

Hi girls,
Weroni, do you really think that my Esther looks like me? 😉 Because It seems to me that she is like my husband. So I am pleased, that you can see a little bit of me on her. 🙂 And I think that your Ester is very much like you. And she has got a beautifull smile. 🙂 She looks like a very happy baby.

Etuska, where are you moving to? 😲

kivec, well, my mother in law has always said that my daughter is just like me 😀 but I see my husband in her, too 😀 funny 😅 well, the day after her birth I thought I would take a "motherhood test" to see if she really was mine - she didn´t have anything from me at all - she was just like my husbands copy 😀 but later, several weeks after, I started seing myself in her, too 🙂 Now we think she is such a great mixture of two of us 😀 so both parents are sure 😉 😝 😀

hehe norik we´ve prepared the same present for the family 😀 I finished my calendar just about four days ago did u make it in Wondershare you had mentioned before? I made a use of the Happy foto action because it was the cheapest way - when I made a calendar with my pics for my husband about four years ago I paid about 600 sk for it and here - in Happy foto it costs just 245 sk for the A3 format 😉 that´s really the lowest possible price 🙂 I ordered four pieces 😀

Weroni-I did it even cheaper,but it was hand- made,so it didn´t look professional,but had a great success as well 😉
About Ester-I see more U in her face 😅
I thought I will pack all the staff tonight,but I´m just too sleepy.
Good night 😵 🙄
