NATASHA BEDINGFIELD - lyrics detectives
This is a ws based on listening to Natasha Bedingfield�s 2 songs. It�s a fill-in and a synonyms� fill-in, and her songs are not bad listening practice, because she sings very clearly and kids (esp teenagers) like the songs. I even used Soulmate as a dictation later on and they liked doing it like that (although, for a singing dictation, I would alw...

MY COUSIN VINNY - advanced ws for the great comedy
A great comedy with Joe Pesci and Marisa Tomei - both wonderfully charming, unforgettable scenes... I did it with teenagers, because it�s about 2 teenagers who get into some serious trouble, and linked it to our court/crime lesson, because a lot of it takes place in court. The ws requires a lot of active writing, but they don�t mind, because they r...

This is a 2-page worksheet for crime vocabulary - the pages can be used separately; the 1st page can be used as introductory worksheet or activity for a lesson about crime and detectives, and the 2nd page is actually a follow-up for watching an episode or reading a story about Sherlock Holmes. I was amazed to see how his old-fashioned methods and u...

Mary Poppins
Who would have guessed modern kids would love Mary Poppins?! Just goes to show you never can tell until you try. My elementary students loved the movie, the songs, the worksheet, the movie word games... They all tried to snap their fingers to tidy up their rooms, too (it didn�t work though)... If you try this, please, let me know how it went.

A TRIBUTE TO TINA TURNER
I started it off by writing 1939-1971-2009 on the board and asking students to elicit ideas about what these years might refer to and which historical events happened in this span of time. Then we did the lyrics in groups of 2-3, then we watched Tina and Beyonce perform Proud Mary, then read the biography... Do I need to say how impressed they were...
