Hi crew! I propose you to COMPLETE this mission: listen to the song, follow the lyrics and fill in the gaps. Then, watch the videoclip: you will read a lot of cool words used in real English by young people to describe personality, using slang language (colloquialisms) and cyberlanguage (like in the SMS in mobile phones).
Can you compile these words and make a list?
My challenge is to produce a videoclip like the one you can see here!
Instructions:
1-Make groups
2-Decide what adjective describe you best (or the opposite, it will make it funnier!)
3-Some of your group will take a black and white picture of yourself in that attitude
4-Add the word using a photo/picture editing software (like in the videoclip)
5-Using MovieMaker let's add the song and our pictures: we've created our own videoclip! Groups 3rd A and 3rd B can work together in this single project.
NOTE: each one of you should have a different adjective (let's not repeat them OK?). Try to use an adjective that's opposite to what you are like normally, or just play out your role for the photo! You can use the clothes and complements that you consider, even make-up and hair style :)
EXTRA
We can print out the pictures and display them in the corridor. Be creative and have fun!
Can you match these songs to a different stage in a relationship?
a) Flirting/Meet someone/Ask someone out
b) Falling in Love
c) Propose/Getting engaged/Getting married
d) Breaking Up
e) Falling in Love (again...)
Videoclips:
1. Gotye feat. Kimbra- "Somebody That I Used To Know" (feat. Kimbra)
[Gotye:]
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and I feel so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
[Kimbra:]
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
Part of me believing it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
[Gotye:]
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and I feel so rough
And you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
[x2]
Somebody
(I used to know)
Somebody
(Now you're just somebody that I used to know)
(I used to know)
(That I used to know)
(I used to know)
Somebody
2. Eagle-Eye Cherry- Title?
I'm so tired
Of falling in love
Finding it easier to fall out
Can't deny it
I feel it inside Cupid's fire
I can't hide
[CHORUS:]
I'm falling in love again
Ain't nothing I can do
Falling in love again
Girl this time it's with you
When I fall
It's always the same
And I'm so tired
Of playing this game
It's been so long now
Since I gave up my heart
I've kept it locked down
I don't wanna get it harmed
So let me tell you now
I just want to be sure
That you won't hurt me
Can you promise me that
[CHORUS]
You got to tell me
If you're going to break my heart
'Cos I don't wanna take the chance
And if it ain't true
All it's gonna be
Is nothing but a poor romance
So give me that promise to hold on
And I'll never let you go
We gotta have something to go on
I'm letting you know now
[CHORUS]
Falling in love again [REPEAT]

4. Bruno Mars. Title?
It's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go,
No one will know,
Oh, come on, girl.
Who cares if we're trashed got a pocket full of cash we can blow,
Shots of patron,
And it's on, girl.
Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.
Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
I'll go get a ring let the choir bells sing like oooh,
So what you wanna do?
Let's just run girl.
If we wake up and you wanna break up that's cool.
No, I won't blame you;
It was fun, girl.
Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.
Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
[x2]
Just say I do,
Tell me right now baby,
Tell me right now baby, baby.
Oh, it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Your turn: Can you find a song in English to fit the missing category?

What's the matter? When you feel under the weather it means that you don't feel very well. You can have some symptoms of an illness, like a runny nose or constant sneezing for a cold or even the flu. Therefore, you can either go to the doctor to have some medical prescription and a medication, or you can try a home made remedy, like drinking orange juices, have a hot soup or take herbal medicine (NOTICE: medicine as UNCOUNTABLE NOUN: some medicine)
Name several illnesses that keep people from going to work or school. Then, discuss the symptoms for each and remedies and treatments for curing the problem.
HELPFUL TIP: People often have their own home remedies for different aliments. Some people eat hot chicken soup when they have a cold. Give it a try.
Think of a time during the last year when you got really sick. What was the problem? Did you go to the doctor? If so, what did the doctor tell you to do, eat, or buy to get better? If you didn't go to the doctor, what did you try to recover from your illness?
What home remedies do you have in your country for the following illnesses or situations? Search for information in books or online to help you answer this question:
