Introducing me!

Lyrics

I'm, I'm good at wasting time

I think lyrics need to rhyme

And you're not asking

But I'm trying to grow a mustache

I eat cheese, but only on pizza, please

And sometimes on a homemade quesadilla

Otherwise it smells like feet to me

And I, I really like it when the moon looks like a toenail

And I love you when you say my name

If you wanna know

Here it goes

Gonna tell you this

The part of me that shows if you're close

Gonna let you see everything

But remember that you asked for it

I'll try to do my best to impress

But it's easier to let you take a guess at the rest

But you wanna hear what lives in my brain

My heart, will you ask for it, for your perusing?

At times confusing, slightly amusing

Introducing me

Doo doo, doo doo doo doo

Doo doo, doo doo doo doo

La da da da

La da da da da da da da, da

I never trust a dog to watch my food

And I like to use to the word "dude"

As a noun, or an adverb, or an adjective

And I've never really been into cars

I like really cool guitars and superheroes

And checks with lots of zeros on 'em

I love the sound of violins

And making someone smile

If you wanna know

Here it goes

Gonna tell you this

The part of me that shows if you're close

Gonna let you see everything

But remember that you asked for it

I'll try to do my best to impress

But it's easier to let you take a guess at the rest

But you wanna hear what lives in my brain

And my heart, will you ask for it, for your perusing?

At times confusing, possibly amusing

Introducing me

Well, you probably know more than you ever wanted to

So be careful when you ask next time

So if you wanna know

Here it goes

Gonna tell you this

The part of me that shows if you're close

Gonna let you see everything

But remember that you asked for it

I'll try to do my best to impress

But it's easier to let you take a guess at the rest

But you wanna hear what lives in my brain

And my heart, will you ask for it, for your perusing?

At times confusing, hopefully amusing

Introducing me

Doo doo, doo doo doo doo

Doo doo, doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo

Introducing me

Bonfire night

Goooooooood Mooooooorning Guys!!
How are you doing my little learners?

Remember, Remember the 5th of November....
Do you remember that wonderful poem that we learned in class these days.
I'm letting you some of the videos that we watched in class in order to learn about Bonfire night.

In class, we used the following video as a warming up to introduce the students to the Bonfire Night in the City of London.

We also watched the following video to learn a little bit more about this festivity in Britain.

From my personal point of view, the knowledge of the British Culture in my students is a must.

To finish the class, we read the following poem which is very well known in the UK and every 5th of November is sung.

Poem: “Remember, remember…”

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,

The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,

I know of no reason

Why the Gunpowder Treason

Should ever be forgot.

Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, it was his intent

To blow up the King and Parliament.

Three-score barrels of powder below

To prove old England's overthrow;

By God's providence he was catch'd (or by God's mercy*)

With a dark lantern and burning match.

Holla boys, Holla boys, let the bells ring.

Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!

I would love to let you a  typical recipe that British people prepare in this festivity.

Una vez que lo habéis instalado, os saldrá una "llama" en la parte derecha de vuestro navegador. Debéis pulsar y seleccionar "Reino Unido". 

Una vez seleccionado, tu navegador esta preparado para poder ver la televisión inglesa.
