Sing in the shower.

Why not repeating and practise singing what we listened to in class
Here is one title to start :
What a wonderful world by Sam Cooke
You can also tell me your views of a wonderful world in the comments.

A new Prime minister in the UK
Par Nelly Sallibartan (Collège Germaine Tillion (91)) le 12 mai 2010, 20:23 - news
The United Kingdom finally has a new Prime Minister - David Cameron!
The leader of the Conservatives took the job five days after the
election.![_47836349_009253066-1.jpg, mai 2010](/nsenglishressources/public/Mai/._47836349_009253066-1_m.jpg)
But because no political party won enough support to be in
power on their own - the Conservatives are going to have to share power
with the Liberal Democrats.
So what about Gordon Brown? Well, just a couple of hours before David
Cameron became Prime Minister , Gordon Brown moved out of number 10 -
along with his wife sarah, and their two children John and Fraser. The
last thing Mr Brown did was thank his kids.....
"I thank my sons John and Fraser for the love and joy they bring
to our lives. And as I leave the second most important job I could ever
hold, I cherish even more the first, as a husband and father. Thank you
and goodbye."
So we know who's going to be in charge now - but what changes would you
make if you were in Number 10.....
The BBC asked the question a little while ago. Here are some answers:"If I was Prime Minister I would change one thing - I would stop
the destruction of habitats." "i'd encourage the electric car to stop
pollution." "I would introduce more speed cameras because I see people
driving too fast- especially near schools."
What about you? Have you got any ideas?

Talking about the weather : look at what has just happened in the USA
Par Nelly Sallibartan (Collège Germaine Tillion (91)) le 11 mai 2010, 22:56 - news
Five people are thought have died in Oklahoma in America after
several tornadoes hit the Southern Plains region.
Hundreds of homes and businesses were destroyed.
Some highways had to be shut down because of wrecked cars and trucks.
And the 100mph winds forced the Oklahoma airport to shut after it damaged a load of planes.
Impressing and frightening no? Next time you could perhaps exchange on the weather with your correspondants.

Elections in the UK
Par Nelly Sallibartan (Collège Germaine Tillion (91)) le 09 mai 2010, 15:16
After a long night of votes being counted, it's still not clear who will be in charge of the UK.
The Conservative party, led by David Cameron, have the most votes but it's not enough for them to have an overall majority.
It means there is now something called a 'hung parliament', none of the three main parties are fully in charge and two of the parties will have to join forces to make laws.
Do you know what this picture represents and the title of the person who works there?

Clothes : nothing to wear !
Par Nelly Sallibartan (Collège Germaine Tillion (91)) le 06 mai 2010, 20:21 - documents 6th form
Here is a page to learn about clothes.
This is a good page to train.
That's another page to practise.
Finally you can listen to Keely's likes and dislikes about clothes.
Remember to use this vocabulary when you get dressed every morning.
You can also send me comments on your favorite clothes or on what you're putting in your suitcase this summer.

When water gives electricity
Par Nelly Sallibartan (Collège Germaine Tillion (91)) le 04 mai 2010, 21:53 - documents 5th form
Most of the British electricity comes from huge power stations across the UK.
They're mainly powered by coal or oil, but there are many other ways of producing power.
A reporter from the BBC went to Edinburgh in Scotland where experts are developing a new cleaner method of making electricity - using the power of the sea.
They've been nicknamed 'sea snakes' because they're really long and winding and they create electricity from the ocean's waves.
Politicians there have given the go ahead to launch a number of power stations that sit on sea.
A collection of giant metal tubes sit on the surface of the water, and as the waves hit them, they move up and down.
That movement is converted into electricity which is sent back to shore through large cables that sit on the surface of the seabed.
The project is still in its early stages, with engineers in Edinburgh putting the final touches to the wave machines before they are sent out to work in the North Sea.
Once they're in place, experts reckon each wave machine could generate enough power to run 500 homes.
Watch his video.

He even managed to walk inside one of the giant metal tubes which was really bizarre.
Inside the wave machine it was really dark and all he could hear was the echo of my voice.
There were lots of computers and wires all over the place and he had to be really careful wherever I stood.
Filming down there was pretty tough, but it was SO exciting to see how the power of the ocean could one day produce lots of electricity that will eventually be used by us in our homes in dry land.
