Participation in the Poetry Recital Contest can be a very rewarding experience for local students who love poetry and learn Russian. The Contest is dedicated to strengthening local communities through the art of Russian poetry. The contest emphasizes the pleasure of reciting poems. There are numerous benefits to poetry recitals. Children have gained experience of standing and speaking in front of a group, build confidence, overcome shyness. They develop public speaking ability. Recitation is the easiest way for children to do some public speaking. It cultivates writing skills. As children memorize well-written poems, they are storing in their minds templates and models of excellent writing which will serve them as they write themselves.
Children and adults recite in Russian one poem of their choice. Both "Native Russian speakers" and "Non-native Russian speakers” are welcome to participate. Award Ceremony and Contestants Reception will be followed. The registration deadline is January 26 2019. For the aplication form click here.
