1st WEEK > Tips for exams, and a motivational song

This first week we've done an activity in pairs matching and discussing the EXAM TIPS on ex. 2 in page 9 from our student's book.

Make sure you are familiar with all the vocabulary:
- carefully
-quiet /noise (noisy)
- "for too long"
- in one go
- find out
- key information
- to worry
- to share
- to "get PLENTY of something"
- confident
- to revise
- to put sth away
- highlight


Then we listened to the song theme in Zootopia movie. Where we found some interesting phrasal verbs:

- keep on
- give up
- mess up
- give in
- get wrong

Make sure you check the meaning and note it down in your notebook.


And the bottom line for us this year:

"I wanna try even though I could fail..."

Listen again, and try to complete the verse we didn't do in class:

last /enough / fast / love

Look how far you've come, you filled your heart with ________________
Baby, you've done ___________, take a deep breath
Don't beat yourself up, don't need to run so _________
Sometimes we come ________________, but we did our best


"Try Everything" Shakira

Can you get the meaning of this las verse? We'll comment in class.

If you haven't seen the film, have a look at the trailer to get an idea of what it is about.
