Pale Course In Hoyos

Hi.
In our second class Jane told us about our groups: advanced group, upstairs and intermediate group, downstairs.

Then we played games together.

WARM UP

The first one was about how can we greeting in different situations:
  • You meet a person very close to you but you don't see him long time ago.
  • You meet a person you love but the other one doesn't love you.
  • You meet a person who owe you money.
When we finished Jane put on our backs a piece of paper with a Scottish people,Irish people or Spanish people wrote in the paper (about literature, art, music and so on) in order to become this person. You couldn't see your name so you must ask for clues about you, like:
-Am I a man or a woman?
-Am I dead or alive?
-Am I from Scotland, Ireland or Spain?
-And so on
And last you might discover the person who you was.
E.g. :Bono (from U2), Robert Louis Stevenson, ....

It was very interesting!!!

SONG: Today is Saturday: time for "fiesta" so I've decided to show you two songs of the disco music years (seventy s)

The first one is Thelma Houston and her song "Don't leave me this way"





The second one is a Bee Gees song. Their hit "Stayin' Alive", from Saturday Night Fever film





Dance!!!!!

Pale course in Hoyos

Hi
I've started a new PALE course in CPR Hoyos two weeks ago.
We passed a little test to know about our English level and then we met our teachers: Jane Marshall (advanced level) and Denise Elekes -my teacher- (intermediate level) . I'm very happy I'll try to improve my English level and learn new things.
I'm so happy because I met Virginia & Raúl again.

SONGS: Today, Jimmy Hendrix. one of the most popular guitar player of ever. He followed one of the slogans of sixties :" live fast, die young and leave a beautiful corpse".

The first one is "Hey Joe!"

Tour 4

Hi again

Our last step!.
When we finished our visit to Stirling Castle we caught our van back to Edinburgh but we stopped to see one of the most Scottish famous bridges : Forth Bridge ; it was amazing!
It was a fantastic Sunday because we knew a little of the north of Scotland. Maybe we could see the rest in the future, (who knows!!!!)





SONGS: Today, Murray Head. He's a British singer and actor. I think he is not so popular like another singers but he sings one of my favourites songs of ever : "Say It Aint's So, Joe"





And now a cover in Spanish.



But I think the most famous Murray Head song was this one: "One Night in Bangkok"
