    Valentine´s Day

    Tomorrow is Valentine´s Day; let´s celebrate!:


    Let´s start with a love story. Since the message of this story is so important, I have decided to include the video (divided into two parts) with the audio in English but the subtitles in Spanish. As you listen and read, try to imagine the words he uses to see how much you really understand. This is a very good listening exercise



    Now (or in a couple of days)  you can watch the video below, without subtitles , to see how much you remember and understand this time.



    What ideas / words do you associate with Valentine´s Day? Let´s see how many I get right:
    • Love - especially the sentence "I love you." Watch the video where lots of people say this is different languages, how many do you understand?
    • Kissing: thinking about Valentine´s Day reminds  many people of either kissing in general or a special kiss but if you think you know it all about kissing, check the following video; I am sure you will learn quite a few interesting facts

    • poems: click here to see some important writers´favourite love poems. If you find any you really like, you can share it with all of us
    • songs; there are so many love songs... what´s your favorite? Maybe it is included in this Valentine´s medley
