Seven Wonders
Have you ever discussed about 7 wonders with your
students in English lessons?
How can we create “7wonders” activities?
When I prepared Independence Day of Uzbekistan lesson
plan I used 7 wonders of Uzbekistan from Wikipedia Uzbekistan:
“Seven wonders of Uzbekistan”:
1. Rivers
2. Mountains
3. Weather.
4. Land
5. Resources
6. Bread
7. Buildings.
“Seven wonder of human life”:
1. Touch
2. Taste
3. See
4. Hear
5. Feel
6. Laugh
7. Love.
It’s very
effective way to improve pupils’ critical thinking skills through discussion
about different 7 wonders e.g. “7 wonders of
websites”, “7 wonders of Nature”, “7 wonders of sport”, “7 wonders of my
city/town/village”, “ Seven wonders around me”, “ 7 wonders of learning
English”. My pupils grade 8 have discussed about “7 wonders of learning
English” and they discovered 7 points.
“Seven wonders of learning English”:
1. Language knowledge
2. Culture knowledge
3. Communicating in English
4. Using I-net in English
5. Respect other languages
6. International friendship
7. Consolidating relationship
