Review Questions and Answers with "Where is Waldo?"

Hi, there!,

When I was a child, I loved the books called "Where is Waldo?". It was so entertaining! While I was looking for Wally, I was having a great time looking at the people around this character, they were playing football in Rome!, a child was chasing a cat; suddenly you could see a dwarf in the middle of a Roman stadium, etc. These books are so funny that I like using them at the end of some lessons, especially if I'm teaching the 1st year of Secondary.

Therefore, if you're an English teacher, I encourage you to pick up one of this book and use this in one lesson. You can ask your pupils to use and review all the verbal forms, in that way:
1. Ask children to work in pairs.
2. The students can spend 5 min. making up questions related to the pages of the book using different tenses.
3. They can ask their classmates, such as: Where is the man falling down the ladder?, How many children are jumping from a roof?, What is Waldo doing?
4. They are going to learn as well as have fun!
5. You, as a teacher, can correct their pronunciation and intonation.
6. You can also use this book to describe the charaters using different adjectives.
7. This book can be helpful to review Relative Clauses or other grammar points.

I'm certain your pupils and you are going to enjoy these lessons too much! Come on! ;)

WHICH: Which is your favourite car? Which one do you prefer?

WHERE: Where does your father work? My father works in a big department store.

HAVE A NICE DAY!!!

Romantic Scenes in TWILIGHT

Hi, Guys!,

As far as I know, you all really love TWILIGHT (and me too!, I'm actually reading the book!); because of that, I've decided to release this tender video. I wish you'd enjoy it!




I've also included the lyrics of this famous song
"Every Time We Touch", it's so wonderful!!!

Saint Valentine's Day is coming soon....

Hi, Guys!,

There is one week left to Saint Valentine's Day! Therefore, I'd like to tell you that there are several opinions of its origin.

Some experts state that it originated from St. Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity. He died on February 14, 269 A.D., the same day that had been devoted to love. Legend also says that St. Valentine left a farewell note for the jailer's daughter, who had become his friend, and signed it "From Your Valentine". Other aspects of the story say that Saint Valentine served as a priest at the temple during the reign of Emperor Claudius. Claudius then had Valentine jailed for defying him. In 496 A.D. Pope Gelasius set aside February 14th to honour St. Valentine.

Gradually, February 14th became the date for exchanging love messages and St. Valentine became the patron saint of lovers. The date was marked by sending poems and simple gifts such as flowers. There was often a social gathering or a ball.

In the United States, Miss Esther Howland is given credit for sending the first valentine cards. Commercial valentines were introduced in the 1800's and now the date is very commercialised. The town of Loveland, Colorado, does a large post office business around February 14th. The spirit of good continues as valentines are sent out with sentimental verses and children exchange valentine cards at school.

From that moment onwards, Saint Valentine's Day is celebrated around the world. Nevertheless, everyday is a good excuse to say I love You,do you agree with me?

I'd rather, I'd prefer, I feel like, I fancy...

Hi, Guys!,

Last Tuesday, a friend of mine who is learning English (like all of us) asked me about the differences between these constructions: I'd rather, I'd prefer, I feel like,
I fancy... Because of that, I've just decided to explain them to YOU!

Let's have a look at! or FANCY THAT!

1. I'd rather is followed by Past tenses in the same way as WISH. It is used to express a personal preference about actions.

Ex: I'd rather you didn't get back so late. (Pres.)

Ex: I'd rather drink coke than coffee. (Pres.)

Ex: I'd rather not go by bus, if possible.

Ex: I'd rather have lived in Ancient Greece than Ancient Rome. (past)

2. I'd prefer ...

I'd prefer + it+ 2nd Cond. = I'd prefer it if you didn't go

I'd prefer + Noun + TO + Noun = I'd prefer coke to coffee

I'd prefer + Obj. + (NOT) + TO infinitive = I'd prefer you not to get back so late.

3. I feel + AS IF (conditionals)

Ex. I feel as if I were flying!, I feel as if a fast car had hit me

4. I feel like + gerund = He doesn't feel like working today, he's so tired.

5. I fancy ...

I fancy + Noun = I really fancy an ice-cream!

I fancy + gerund = Do you fancy watching a film?

I fancy + Obj. (be physically attracted to)= She fancies him!

I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING!
what do you fancy now? If you need some exercises to practise, click on "I'd rather, I'd prefer" (LABELS - ON THE RIGHT).

WE ARE THE WORLD, WE ARE THE CHILDREN

Hi, Guys!,

This fantastic song was first sung by many well-known singers, such as Michael Jackson, Bruce Sprinteen, a long time ago, when these celebrities wanted to collect much money to help poor African children. These days, one of my favourite singer, Celine Dion, has met other important singers to perform this song. Once again, everybody is together, all of us want to help vulnerable people in particular children from HAITÍ. We wish these people could recover as soon as possible. This song also reminds me of "It's Time to Change" by Juanes, another singer who is deeply worried about unprotected people. Now, let's listen to its significant lyrics!

We Are the World, We Are the Children

by Jonas Brothes, Lady Gaga, Celine Dion, among others
