Бен Лотерстайн - очень известный человек. Он не только учитель английского языка, но также чемпион мира по скрэббл. Бен верит, что игра скрэббл подходит для урока. Он говорит: «Я все время использую игру скрэббл на уроке. Это захватывающий опыт для детей. Они учатся арифметике, языку, словарным навыкам и работе в команде. Скрэббл учит их всему  очень интересным Другие учителя, похоже, согласны с ним, что cкрэббл - это для молодежи хорошо проводить время и учиться одновременно. Они думают, что подростки, которые редко открывают словарь, редко ходят в библиотеку и обычно тратят большую часть своего времени на интернет-серфинг, находят игру скрэббл интересной. Один из них говорит: «Это единственный раз, когда я вижу, как мои студенты борются за словарь или даже открывают его!» Бен посещает уроки по всей стране, чтобы другим учителям понять, что скрэббл - это образовательный инструмент, инструмент для улучшения стратегического мышления и объединения людей.

How nice to receive gifts, but even nicer to give them. Once in the regular school day after school. I came to visit his friend. Here I walk into his room, and there on the windowsill, behind the curtain, is a gift that is waiting for me. Large plate with fresh strawberries in early spring. At that moment I was very tired and berries I wanted the most. It was very unexpected and delicious! No matter whether it was a gift given to any celebration, or it was presented just as a sign of respect. Give gifts with love and from the heart.
