How I spend my summer!

This summer I traveled almost all over Europe. I was in Luxembourg, Poland, Germany, Belgium, Latvia, Lithuania and the Netherlands! In some countries, I communicated in English and was very happy that I can speak freely! Only in Lithuania and Latvia, many people speak in Russian! I had a very good summer vacation and traveled to the most famous places! Here are some photos!

Valentine's Day (traditions)

Think of five or six names of boys or girls you might marry, as you twist the stem of an apple, recite the names until the stem comes off. You will marry the person whose name you were saying when the stem fell off.

Pick a dandelion that has gone to seed. Take a deep breath and blow the seeds into the wind. Count the seeds that remain on the stem. That is the number of children you will have.

If you cut an apple in half and count how many seeds are inside, you will also know how many children you will have.

American Culture Pag


Family Tradition

We teach our children about American Culture. We teach them to be good Americans by sharing our traditions of Citizenship, American Holiday Celebration, Craftsmanship, Entrepreneurship, Competition, Leadership, Know-How, and Positive Attitude.

Our Culture

Beyond the walls of our home lies a great Nation with a culture of its own. The structure of our Government, our laws and the way people relate to each other have great influence on our actions and attitudes. What do you think about when you hear the words: The United States of America? On our Freedom Page we display the quote "The land of the free, and the home of the brave". Many of us think of that quote, or quotes from the song: "America The Beautiful", like "spacious skies" or "amber waves of grain".

"Only in America"

There is a culture in this country whether spoken or unspoken that manifests itself in everything we say, do, or think. For example, in the United States we expect to compete in every aspect of our lives. At the same time we expect to compete, we also expect to be given equal opportunity to grow to our potential. We believe we all have equal rights under the law. We expect American Industry to put out a quality product and for our Nation to be a leader in the world. Sometimes we even find ourselves "on the soap box" spouting expectations of our Nation's performance or the performance of American Industry not realizing that unless we each live up to these expectations, our Nation and our Industries cannot. Frequently, many of our competing interests and our strong desire to ensure Individual Freedom, result in extraordinary events taking place that can only be explained by the expression: "Only in America".

Pass on our culture to future generations

Whatever our "National" culture may be, many of us depend on our schools and institutions to teach our children. Should we leave this precious part of our children's education just to schools and other institutions? Emphasis and example at home are very important to the development of our children so that our Nation remains strong into the future. What Customs and Traditions do you observe in your family so that you pass on the important aspects of our American Culture essential to our future survival? What kinds of conversations do you have with your children?

This Web page links to Customs, Traditions and Rituals practiced by American Families. They are listed at right; click on the desired Tradition to view. Our Family and Freedom Web Pages have additional Traditions. If you would like to share with us a Custom, Tradition or Ritual that you find important, please visit our Traditions page.

English in my life and the life of my family

Kate, 14.
I live in Kiev.
Kiev is the capital of Ukraine.
Kiev is a city which has great weather and fantastic history.
A lot of tourists come here on holiday, but I live here! Ukrainian is the official language in Kiev.
It's the language we use when we read and write at school, but we speak 'Russian' at home and with friends.
This sounds very different to Ukrainian.
In fact, it's almost a different language!
Also in school we study English.
I have been studying English since 2004.
I like to study English!
And now we work with new technologies.
This is very interesting for me!
What about me?
I usually listen to music in my free time.
Music is really important to Kiev.
My favorite band is 'Muse'.
I've got all their CDs.
I like singing songs, and I'd love to be a rock singer, too.
Also I'm like drawing.
It's very interesting for me!
