Teaching is wonderful and learning more! Teamwork is worth it! I have a very good friend who is a teacher of English too. Her name is Nora Vitale. On Friday we worked together and we taught these songs to our groups. We had a very nice time.
1-Listen to these songs and work on this exercise!
Somewhere over ……………
Way up ……………
And the ………….. that you …………. of once in a lullaby
…………………………………………………..
Bluebirds …………
Dreams really do ………………….
Now, unscramble these lines!
High above the chimney top
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
Someday I wish upon a star
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh …………………….. can't I
Now complete with a colour!
Well I see trees of …………….. and …………….. roses too
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well I see skies of ……………and
I see clouds of ……………...
And the brightness of day
I like the dark
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Choose the correct alternative
The colors of theraindrops/ rainbow
So pretty in the sky/clouds
and also on the eyes /faces of people/persons passing by
I see friends holding /shaking hands saying
How are you/How do you do
They're only/ really saying I, I love you
I hear babies cry/play and I see/watch them grow
They'll learn/live much more then we'll go/know
And I say/think to myself what a wonderful world

ReplyDeleteSomewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dream that you dream of once in a lullaby
oh somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
and the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true
Now, unscramble these lines!
High above the chimney top (NO) Someday i'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
Someday I wish upon a star (NO) high above the chiminey tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I
Now complete with a colour!
Well I see trees of green and red roses too
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well I see skies of blue and
I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Choose the correct alternative
The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
and also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands saying
How do you do
They're really saying I, I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow
They'll learn much more then we'll know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
2- Optimistic: The song sees the most hopeful aspects of a situation.
Deep: the song shows the singer's feelings and shows their deepest desires.
Romantic: the lyrics of the song is imaginary, are some things that the singer wants to pass.
3- The song is very nice and relaxing. It talks about that the dreams can be true somewhere in the world. Some things that make the world wonderful are:
- Respect for people
- Caring for the environment
- Be positive, honest, generous, etc..
- Find peace and tolerance
Some things that make the world awful are:
- Contamination
- Insults
- Robberies
- Corruption
- Wars
