“For several years now, we have been organizing thematic events for students from abroad, dedicated mainly to such holidays as New Year, Easter and Women’s Day. We acquaint them with the history and traditions of this or that celebration, we hold various competitions and games with prizes and gifts”, said Tatyana Shcherbakova, Head of the reading room of the Scientific Library of Altai State University. “By organizing this kind of events, we, of course, also pursue an educational goal, such as training of oral speech, because students talk about themselves and their countries, read poetry, and sing songs”.
As part of the Spring Charm holiday, foreign students read poems by Russian poets, sang songs dedicated to a mother, and guessed professions in a pantomime competition. In addition, the quiz "Famous women of the world" was held for the students, funny competitions were organized in drawing holiday cards blindly and choosing the best hostess among the girls present.
