Cmaps about Simple Past

Using Cmap Tools Programme - Usando el programa Cmap Tool

In this post I´ll published what the students create in class.

First, we altogether draw a cmap on the whiteboard about the simple past of the verb "to be". Then they create one working in pairs and using the Cmap Tool. As a homework they had to create another one as regards regular & Irregular Verbs.

All this was done with the purpose of reviewing the simple past because next week they´ll have a test next wednesday (june 5th) about it.

So the result is this :

En esta entrada publicaré lo que los alumnos crearon en clases usando Cmap.

Primero hicimos un mapa conceptual en el pizarrón todos juntos sobre el pasado simple del verbo "ser-estar". Después tuvieron que reproducirlo usando el programa Cmap Tool y trabajando en parejas. Como tarea hicieron otro mapa conceptual sobre el pasado simple de los verbos regulares e irregulares.

Todo este trabajo se realizó con el objetivo de repasar para un prueba que tendrán el día miércoles de la semana que viene.

 Este es el resultado:

Torn (a song to learn)

OK boys & girls, I really think Agapornis (AGP) destroyed this beautiful song from the Australian Natalie Imbruglia. Anyway, as I know most of you like "cumbia" rythm, I decided to publish both the original version and this new versions of an incredible song.

Now you are supposed to translate its lyrics (it´s at the end of this post). 

GL!

Realmente creo que Agapornis (AGP) destrozó esta bella canción de la Australiana Natalie Imbruglia. De todas formas, como a muchos de ustedes les gusta el ritmo de la cumbia, decidí publicar ambos videos, el original y la version de AGP.

Ahora ustedes tendrán que conseguir una buena traducción de la letra de este tema musical (está en la parte final de esta entrada). 

Buena Suerte!!!

TORN – Natalie Imbruglia

I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm
He came around and he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Or seem to care what your heart is for
Well I don't know him anymore
There's nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn

So I guess the fortune teller's right
I should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins
And now I don't care
I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can't touch I'm torn

I'm all out of faith

This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake
And I can see
The perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn

Torn
hoooooooooo hoohooooooo oooooooo
