Lacná kniha Bloc Life - Stories from the Lost World of Communism (-70%)
There was life before the fall.
1989 was a year of astonishing and rapid change: the fall of the Berlin Wall marked the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and an end to an entire way of life for millions of people behind the Iron Curtain. Bloc Life collects first hand testimony of the people who lived in East Germany, Czechoslovakia and Romania during the Cold War era, and reveals a rich tapestry of experience that goes beyond the headlines of spies and surveillance, secret police and political corruption. In fact, many of the people remember their lives under communism as 'perfectly ordinary' and even hanker for the 'security' that it offered.
From political leaders, athletes and pop stars, to cooks, miners and cosmonauts, the stories collected in Bloc Life evoke the moods, preoccupations and experiences of a world that vanished almost overnight.

English stories - anglická čítanka pre 3. ročník
Zážitkové čítanie a hravé učenie angličtiny pre malých školákov!
Čítanka English stories vznikla z potreby priniesť deťom zaujímavé a veku primerané texty v cudzom jazyku, ktoré budú schopné samé si prečítať a pochopiť ich. Súčasťou textov sú aj audionahrávky. Napomáhajú pri správnej výslovnosti a predchádzajú zafixovaniu nesprávnych návykov, ktoré sú častým javom pri osvojovaní si cudzieho jazyka. Audionahrávky si žiak vďaka prístupným QR kódom môže vypočuť doma, v škole či na výlete.
Malí školáci zaiste ocenia krátke a jednoduché príbehy o hračkách, kamarátoch, zvieratkách, škole, novom telefóne, obliekaní, ročných obdobiach, narodeninovej oslave, rôznych sviatkoch alebo o živote v meste. Ku každému príbehu je pripravená zaujímavá strana plná doplňovačiek, krížoviek, maľovaniek a iných rozmanitých úloh, pri ktorých sa žiaci zabavia a zároveň sa nenúteným spôsobom učia angličtinu. Pri každom texte sú uvedené nové slovíčka a výrazy. Otázky a úlohy preverujú mieru porozumenia prečítaného textu a zároveň poskytujú deťom ideálny priestor na rozprávanie a samostatné vyjadrovanie sa. Čítanka je vhodná ako doplnkový didaktický materiál na hodinách angličtiny, v jazykových krúžkoch, pri doučovaní jazyka, ale aj doma v rámci samostatnej výučby.

Nabízí komplexní pohled na trhy z několika rovin a učí začínající burzovní obchodníky a spekulanty efektivně s trhy pracovat a analyzovat je. Nejde o teoretickou snůšku pouček, ale o praktický a reálný náhled do světa burzy.
