Angleški bralni klub ali English Reading Club je namenjen branju literarnih del v angleškem jeziku. Srečanja potekajo enkrat mesečno. Običajno beremo kratke zgodbe, o katerih se pogovarjamo, ogledamo si izsek filma ali intervju z avtorjem. Dijaki aktivno sodelujejo v pogovoru, doma pa napišejo kratek esej na obravnavano temo. Tako poglabljajo znanje angleškega jezika, razvijajo sposobnost branja, komuniciranja in spoznavajo tuje kulture.

The Daffodils
By William Wordsworth
I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o’er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the Milky Way, They stretched in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced, but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A Poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company: I gazed—and gazed—but little thought What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils.
William Wordsworth, 1770 – 1850 |
