Welcome and have fun!

Bonjour et bienvenue à tous !

Ce blog est ouvert à tous ceux qui veulent apprendre et/ou s'amuser en anglais, grâce à des jeux, des chansons, des vidéos et autres activités ludiques. La plupart des documents publiés seront en lien avec ce que nous faisons en classe bien sûr, mais pas seulement : ce blog est un lieu de partage. J'y afficherai des choses qui me paraissent intéressantes et/ou amusantes, comme des bandes-annonces de films, des clips, etc.

Vous pouvez également me contacter si vous voulez que j'affiche quelque chose que vous voulez partager avec vos camarades... mais attention : tout doit se faire en ANGLAIS Les commentaires en français seront effacés, et les messages que je recevrai en français ne seront pas pris en compte.

N'ayez pas peur de faire des erreurs, au contraire !!! C'est le meilleur moyen d'apprendre. N'hésitez pas à corriger vos camarades !

Have fun!!!

The Dash

by Linda Ellis,  1996


I read of a man who stood to speak
at the funeral of a friend.
He referred to the dates on her tombstone,
from the beginning…to the end.

He noted that first came the date of her birth
and spoke of the following date with tears,
but he said what mattered most of all
was the dash between those years.

For that dash represents all the time
that she spent alive on earth.
And now only those who loved her
know what that little line is worth.

For it matters not, how much we own,
the cars…the house…the cash.
What matters is how we live and love
and how we spend our dash.

So, think about this long and hard.
Are there things you’d like to change?
For you never know how much time is left
that can still be rearranged.

If we could just slow down enough
to consider what’s true and real
and always try to understand
the way other people feel.

And be less quick to anger
and show appreciation more
and love the people in our lives
like we’ve never loved before. 

If we treat each other with respect
and more often wear a smile,
remembering that this special dash
might only last a little while.

So, when your eulogy is being read,
with your life’s actions to rehash…
would you be proud of the things they say
about how you spent YOUR dash?

Here is the painting you may have to analyze for the exam:


The problem we all live with

"The Problem We All Live With", Norman Rockwell, 1964.

 

It has been inspired by a real event, a real picture:

Ruby-Bridges.jpgIn 1960, Ruby Bridges - 6 years old - was on her way to school after the case "Brown vs Board of education" (1954) ruled that segragation in schools was unconstitutional.

On Tuesday 22nd November, Imany gave a concert in L'Aigle.

For those who were present, it's gonna ring a bell ...

For those who don't know that song, it echoes the discussion some of you developed around Steve Job's death and poverty in Africa ...

For the others, just listen and enjoy ...

    


 
Here are the lyrics that the 3°4 found (and without mistakes, as opposed to all the lyrics websites you can find!) :

Africa has the shape of a broken heart
and the heart of a broken land,

You fell from heaven
Straight to hell,
Now your children are missing

I try to understand
Who I am
Years after years
God, it feels the same

Parted favors
Everybody's gone
Ain't no war that I know
Anybody won

Africa has the shape of a broken heart
And the heart of a broken land,

You fell from heaven
Straight to hell,
Now your children are missing

Kiss their forehead
And hold their hands
Close their eyes
And put their name on their graves

Dust is dust
And so goes our faith
So goes our faith

Africa has the shape of a broken heart
And the heart of a broken land

Fell from heaven
Straight to hell,
Now your children are missing

And the wind blows,
And the children roam
Sitting on a side of a road
Watching all the boats, ooh

Africa has the shape of a broken heart
And the heart of a broken land

You fell from heaven
Straight to hell,
And now your children are missing

Now I understand
Who I am, who I am, who I am ...

Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how
I can accept the thing
The things that I can't change
Accept the things that I can't change ...

 

 

Thanks to the 3°4 (2011-2012) from Collège F. Dolto in L'Aigle (61).
