Дополнительная информация для учителей к учебнику New Millennium English для 10 класса

Рекомендуемые сообщения

Собрала еще информацию к учебнику New Millennium English для 10 класса. Удивительно, как это увлекает! Сама постоянно узнаю что-то новое, интересное, теперь такие вещи могу на уроках рассказать. подростки смотрят с открытыми ртами! И сама не чувствую себя неловко когда не понимаю о чем они говорят. Когда я недавно начала им самйлики рисовать, они сначала скептически смотрели, а потом глаза разгорелись, смотрю - перерисовывают, записывают, начали, кажется, в СМСках использовать - они-то половины и не знали! В общем, как всегда спешу поделиться информацией. Отдельное спасибо Алексею Конобееву за редактирование английского текста, аннотации я пишу, а вот выверить их самой как следует не всегда времени хватает.
