Day 8. Food

                         Hello! How are you? Hope, everything is fine.

  Today our topic is dedicated to food. While it's a rather large topic, so I've decided to divide it into 2 days.
 Food is any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for the body. It is usually of plant or animal origin, and contains essentialnutrients, such as fats, proteins, vitamins, or minerals. The substance is ingested by an organism and assimilated by the organism's cellsto provide energy, maintain life, or stimulate growth.
  So, what are we going to do this time? Well, first of all, are you a food-faddist?   Don't know this kind of word? That's totally not a problem! A food-faddist is a person who has some really sprecific preferences in taking meal. See? You've already learned the new phrase!

  For the beginning, let's watch the video called Top 10 Outrageous Food Items. 

And! One of my favourite videos - Top 10 Unhealthy Health Food

                                                                  
                                       
As usual, we have new words to learn. So, let's go!

Day 6. School

                                    Hi there! What's new? Have you suceeded into learning the previous topic?

  Today we're gonna talk about scholl. Well, a nice topic, isn't it? You probably think that you know everything about school and there is nothing new in learning this topic. Actually, you're wrong because there's always something new to learn. 
Well, Wikipedia says that school is an institution designed for the teaching of students (or "pupils") under the direction of teachers. 

  Firstly, let's watch the video (you can see below) called 'What's the worst trouble you got into at school?'

Day 5. Home

                                   Hi, guys! What's up? 

   Today our topic is Home. What first comes into your mind when you hear the word 'Home'? For some people it's a place wher they've grown up. For others - a place where somebody is always waiting for them. There are a lot of answers, right?
Actually, Wikipedia says that a home is a dwelling-place used as a permanent or semi-permanent residence for an individual, family, household or several families in a tribe. It is often a house, apartment, or other building, or alternatively a mobile home, houseboat, yurt or any other portable shelter. 

   So, below you can see different exercises dedicated to Home  topic. And! There are also lists of words on this topic. I hope, this will help you and your students to learn such a wonderful topic.  So, good luck, my dears!
