- Seminar-meeting with Professor Gurgen Hovhannisyan, co-author of the textbook "Me and the surrounding world 4"
During the meeting, Mr. Hovhannisyan, presenting the textbook, noted that it was created in accordance with state standards and the requirements of the subject program. Then he touched upon the structure of the 4th grade textbook. In particular, it was noted that teachers should start working with the textbook from the very beginning of the year, introducing students to the textbook. Accordingly, interest in the course will increase, and at the same time, the work of using the textbook will be organized more effectively. It was emphasized that the teacher should present the conventional signs in the textbook, explain their meaning, so that the student can quickly and easily navigate the pages of the textbook. It was noted that in the speech addressed to fourth-grade students, the authors advise students to devote more space to observations, research, experiments, and other sources of knowledge in their studies.
Mr. Hovhannisyan, thus, presented the structural components of the textbook and their pedagogical and methodological features to the seminar-meeting participants.
Next, the author presented the 4th grade "Teacher's Manual", its structural components. He noted that this year they will also be printed and provided to teachers free of charge. Then Mr. Hovhannisyan answered the questions of interest to the teachers.
At the end of the meeting, a pleasant surprise awaited the teachers: the author and the “Astghik Gratun” publishing house, which published the textbook, presented all teachers with “Teacher’s Handbook” for 2nd and 3rd grades, as well as workbooks, thematic and semester notebooks for the same grades.
The teachers expressed their gratitude to Mr. Hovhannisyan and the organizers of the meeting and expressed their wish that similar seminar-meetings be organized in the future.
