Dear people at eslp,
Purim is approaching. It is of course very different from carnaval if you go into the origins etc. but bottom line it comes down to the same thing: get dressed up and party.
The last few years our English team has made a big thing out of it and we were quite the talk of the school (we were teletubbies, superteachers etc.). Even though expectations are high, this year we decided to put less work into it (I basically said I won �t be sewing the costumes since I simly do not have the energy/time to do it).
We came up with a low effort outfit; we wil dress up as rockband with a parody of the famous ACDC logo as a basis..
Under the original it usually says "back in black"...My question to you is as follows: Can you suggest some witty text to put under it? We thought of "back in class" or "English rocks" "Get the basics" but we can �t seem to decide...
Any suggestions for a good line/pun? |

Wow, Douglas... a connoisseur I see, i �m impressed!!
Problem is, most of our students are not THAT familiar with the band so these puns will probably be lost on them (and I teach elementary level...)
We might still go for it for our own fun, Thanks a lot! |

Hi Marion,
How about: "Give me more O.M.G."
I think it rhymes... |

"ABD" stands for !all but dissertation".
Come up with something funny for the "C".
Hopefully not "all but cruel death"
;o)
