I started my practice in the gymnasium "Troyeshchyna" and I am very satisfied with it.
FirstlyI want to thank Ms Byzova and all the seventh classes, who are very pleasant to work with.
So I decided to prepare something unusual for the holiday of 8th March or International Women's Day.
We began the lesson with a poem about mothers.
Mommy, Mommy,
I Love You
Mommy, mommy,
I love you.
Yes, I do, yes, I do.
You are sweet and oh so fine,
I’m so glad that you are mine.
Mommy, mommy, I love you.
Yes, I, yes, I, yes I do!
Then we had a conversation about this holiday.
I told that International Women's Day is marked on the 8th of March every year.
It is a major day of global celebration of women.
In different regions the focus of the celebrations ranges from general celebration of respect,
appreciation and love towards women.
As you know The day is an official holiday in Afghanistan, Armenia,Azerbaijan,Belarus, Burkina Faso,
Cambodia, China (for women only), Cuba, Georgia, Guinea-Bissau, Eritrea, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan,
Laos, Madagascar (for women only), Moldova, Mongolia, Montenegro, , NepalRussia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan,
Uganda, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Vietnam and Zambia. (for women only) , In Britain, for example, celebrates Mother's Day .
It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in May, March, or April as a day to honor mothers and motherhood.
In the UK and Ireland, it follows the old traditions of Mothering Sunday, celebrated in March/April.
