My hero
Maria and Azamat talk about people for their school project
Maria: Azamat, do you remember, next Friday we need to do a project about the heroes of our days?
Azamat: Yes, I remember. There is little time left. Let’s do it together, shall we? Do you have any ideas?
Maria: I have one idea. What do you think about sports heroes?
Azamat: I love sports and respect athletes. I believe that athletes are the most courageous people. They always work hard to improve their results. I admire the sporting achievements of Gennady Golovkin. I have watched a lot of his fights.
Maria: I am sure you are Golovkin’s most loyal fan.
Azamat: Yes, I am. One of his last battles was exciting. It was in the center of Las Vegas. Thousands of people were queuing up to enter the building. Journalists and reporters were waiting to capture a good shot of celebrities. It was such a fight that all the famous singers and actors of Hollywood came to watch. After the fight, experts said that 3.5 billion people all over the world watched the fight on TV and on the Internet. I am proud that such a legendary fighter is a citizen of my country. I want to be like him because he is a world champion and record holder.
Maria: I admire the achievements of figure skater Elizabeth Tursynbaeva. She is beautiful and graceful. She has a successful career in sport She has won several tournaments and participated in the Olympic Games. In 2017, and I watched her performance at the Asian Sports Games. She is very modern, she plays the piano and violin.
Azamat: Let's find photos on the Internet and make a project plan. I think everyone will like it.
Maria: The title of the project will be 'Heroes of sports'. What do you think?
Azamat: I like this name. Many athletes take part in charity: they donate to orphanages, organize fundraising for children with health problems. I think this is important information for the project.
Maria: I will try to find the information about social projects our heroes took part in.
Azamat: Good! We have 3 days for work.
Maria: Let’s start! Turn on your laptop.
Guess the plan of the students’ project:
Ask someone what to do in the project, make a list of heroes, find information, to write a post on Instagram for their followers.
Work with people who knows their heroes, to find information and present to their class.
Choose heroes; discuss the choice, to find photos and information, to make a system, present to their class.​
