Homework Offered
Each week I will be giving a handout with coloring pages illustrating the fairytale. Each coloring page will also have a new vocabulary spelled in Cyrillic and Latin letters (for better visual memory). The handout will also include a small paper craft with the character from the fairytale. The learner is encouraged to post a video of trying out new vocabulary and using it with the paper actor. The student also needs to post a short video of them re-telling the story in their own words. They can use the paper theater actors if they want to. I will be checking each video and correcting the pronunciation. I will be cheering and encouraging the student, and other students are welcome to cheer for their classmates!Assessments Offered

Hi! Recently I have started giving some rhymes that include finger and hands exercises that activate speech (and language learning) to my students and it’s working great. I will be including them into the course as optional exercises. To be able to do them you will need: 1. Massage rings: https://a.co/d/94u2pKN 2. Spiky sensory massage ball:https://www.amazon.com/Impresa-Products-Spiky-Sensory-Balls/dp/B01N63C2MN You can use any similar products as well. I use those to provide sensory and stimulation when doing specific rhymes. Week 2 of the course is when I start to include those exercises. Thank you, Ms. Vlada
