Extra-curricular work is an important aid in formation of pragmatic competence and pupils' education. It is closely connected with the work in class, and it supplements it. It offers numerous possibilities for instruction and education. In the field of foreign languages extra-curricular work is especially important. Because our schools can afford but a rather reduced number of foreign language classes, this work offers additional possibilities for developing pupils' skills and abilities in foreign languages. Besides the practical consideration, extra-curricular activities have a great instructive value since pupils get supplementary opportunities to study the great writers of English and American literature, the history of Great Britain and the USA, the formation of the English language.
