I noticed yesterday that some of the students had already learned all the questions we had studied to find out about a movie or film. Good for you! The rest of you should check them in the last blog and try to memorize them.

In our class yesterday we practiced a short conversation related to the same topic. The conversation was:

A. Do you feel like seeing a movie?

B. Sure. What movie would you like to see?

A. How about The Clam Takes Over? It's playing at the Royal Theater. It's about a brave clam who takes over the Earth. Johnny Hook is in it.

B. It sounds good. What time is it playing?

A. Showtimes are at 5:00 and 7:00.

New words we studied:

Feel like: it is followed by another verb in the -ing form.

Take over: take control of something.

Showtime: the time when a film or movie is played.

Clam: we eat it in paella.


Later we listened to a recording about the adventures of Pinocchio and Gepetto. We also studied a few new words:

wood: the material many tables are made of.

wooden puppet: a puppet made of wood. 

grow: plants and people grow, they become taller.


HOMEWORK

1. make 2 sentences with the words feel like.

2. Make 2 sentences with the word grow.

3. Write the opening paragraph of a fairy tale. Example: opening paragraph for Pinocchio.

Once upon a time there was an old carpenter who lived alone. He did not have any children and wished he had a son, so he made a wooden puppet and dreamed the puppet would sometime become a real boy.
