ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

...

Learning English in a relaxed, creative and stimulating athmosphere has been concieved as learning with and through entertainment. Every participant of the School will be given his/her own active role and the teacher will try to lure out the best of them by encouraging him/her to speak out in English. The teacher will stimulate the children to feel and understand why and when English is necessary, to feel the language as their friend. The children will present their own role during and after the course individually or in a group (writing of a mini-diary, writing a post card from the seaside to a friend in Slovenia or abroad, writing a concept of a text for internet communication …). At the end of the programme the children will prepare their joint group presentation.

Children will join the English Summer School in comfortable casual clothes. Each child will bring along a bathing suit, a towel, a hat, a t-shirt, a sun-protecting cream, a bottle of water/soft drink, colour pencils, felt pens, wax colours, some A3 or similar drawing paper, a non-ruled A4 notebook, some DAS mass for moulding, and some coloured collage paper. (Children should bring along just the left-over material from the last school year – except for the A4 notebook which is expected to be new.)

TEACHERS AND ANIMATORS
The English Summer School is performed by a team of experienced and dedicated teachers, some of them university professors and excellent animators. All teachers have rich experience in working with children and young people, many of them have international experience, also in the field of social/art paedagogics, i.e. learning through creative activities and expressing through art expressive means. The programme will be enriched through the collaboration of two guests: an elementary-school teacher with experience in working with talented children who will add mental games to the programme, and a social paedagogue also bringing experience from her work in elementary school. School lessons, teaching methods, use of literature, creative and sports activities will be all adjusted to the age and the pre-knowledge of the children. Homogeneity of the group, weather conditions and time available will also be considered.
