European Day of Languages 2024 at Katkin park

 Language classes, 26 Eyl 2024, Košice, Slovakya

In the morning upon arrival at school, the teachers will have prepared envelopes from which students will draw slips of paper with flags. Based on these, they will be assigned to languages. The teachers will inform the students that flags are displayed on the doors, and based on the slips of paper they drew in the morning, they will go to the class marked with the matching flag. Thus, students from different grades will be together in one room. 6 languages: Spanish Portuguese French English German Slovak At the beginning there will be an introductory presentation – What is the European Day of Languages (EDJ)? Activities in each classroom based on the languages: 1. Portuguese, Spanish, French, German – introducing in the language, basic phrases. In parallel, in the Slovak and English classes, students will guess the origin of loanwords or the meaning of "false friends". 2. Nobel Prize winners, athletes, and famous personalities from European countries where the language is spoken. Students will watch a video and try to remember as many people, discoveries, and inventions from that country as possible. 3. Photos from various European countries – students guess which country the photo is from based on street signs, road signs, etc. /2 sets of 10 photos each/. 4. Tongue twisters in selected languages. As part of the 3rd activity (photos from various European countries), the students will be divided into smaller groups. The group that correctly guesses the most European countries in the photos (activity 3) will earn 1 extra point in their language subject.
