QUESTION OF APPLIED ART USE AT THE ENGLISH LESSONS

Use of applied art at English lessons became one of popular techniques in modern teaching. It allows to make the atmosphere of creativity and the communication based on this creativity where the creative thought is primary and exists in images, but not in a verbal form of the native language that does communication torn more off from thinking in the native language, more figurative.As process of the speech interaction itself includes use, both language, and grammatical structures, therefore creation of the direct communicative environment in the learned language is the best way to achieve the required objectives through interaction of pupils with each other and also with their teacher. The known information forms students’ base for the discovery of something unknown through evident materials which help them to master new words and structures. Explanations are offered by the teacher only when the help is necessary and excluded when the pupil has to use the observation better than anything else. Art in this case is one of the most excellent means for reconciliation of pupils since helps to create the special atmosphere allowing to estimate participation of all in the course of studying of language. It is impossible to find other kind of activity which equally would rally all pupils, as during creation of exclusively unique creations in a format of art or literature to share it with the class in the learned language.
