Иногда ,работая по учебнику, хочется добавить в урок чего-то новенького,того,что дети не смогут найти быстренько в своих телефонах. Работая над темой США , я подобрала небольшой текст, небольшой,но отражающий основную информацию, которая, как мне кажется, необходима детям в этом возрасте. Проработав несколько уроков над этой темой,завершила изучение тестовой работой.
