Heal the World

What do you do to make the world a better place?  What do you think most needs to be done?

Let it Be

Do you ever worry?  I worry a lot.  What do you worry about?

 I worry about my family, my students, and my friends,  Worry has never helped me, but I worry anyway.  Sometimes when I feel worried, I play this song, and then I feel better.  What makes you feel better when you worry?

We are the World!

Can you find all the words in this video that really need an apostrophe to be correct?  Can you find the sentence or question that uses the wrong form of "to be?"

Please tell me about a time that you helped a child or found out that someone else had helped a child.

Stairway to Heaven

Don't spend time trying to understand this song.  This song doesn't make sense to native speakers.  It's a lovely example of how "wonder" means unfocused thoughts about and around a topic.  This song is also amazing music.

Can you play a guitar?  Can you play any instrument?  Tell me about learning to play music.  Do you have a favorite musician?

Titanic

Describe someone you will always love.

Hello

This was my favorite song when I was twenty years old.  Do any songs remind you of certain times in your life?

Do you believe in love at first sight?  Do you know anyone who married someone else that they barely knew?  If a stranger sang this song to you, would you feel like he was romantic?

Faded

Tonight is the first time I've ever heard this song.  I think it's beautiful and sad.  This is not a common way to use "faded."  Usually, we use "faded" for jeans or curtains that lost their color in the laundry or sun.

Do you wonder where some of your old friends are right now?  One thing I love about Facebook is that it helped me contact friends I hadn't seen in a really long time.

What do you do to keep your old friendships from fading?
