A sad painter (Vincent Van Gogh)
Put the words in the correct group
Nature Art
portrait, rose, frame, thorn, paintbrush, breeze, palette, daffodil, sketch, hill, colour, snow, flower, cloud, artist, pencil, field, grain.
Listen to the song and find the missing words
Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue and ..............,
Look out on a summer's day,
With eyes that know the ................ in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the ............. and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land.
Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.
Starry, starry night.
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
Swirling clouds in ............ haze,
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
Colors changing hue, ............ field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the artist's ............. hand.
Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.
For they could not love you,
But still your love was .................
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took your ............., as lovers often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This ............... was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.
Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can't ..................
Like the strangers that you've met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody ..............,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they're not listening still.
Perhaps they never will...
What can you see? How does it make you feel? Why do you like it?

- Why was the artist sad?
- How do you know he was sad?
- How does the singer feel about him?
- What did he paint?
What can you see? How does it make you feel? Why do you like it?

Valentines day
Fill the gaps with the missing words
admirer flowers meal celebrate partner cards couples
Every year on February 14th people ............... Valentines day. Some............. exchange ............... or go out for a............... For those who are single it can be a chance to send a bunch of .............. to a secret ............... Not everyone likes Valentines day; they say it's more important to show your.............. that you love them everyday.
Listen to the song and fill the gaps
Have you ever .............. somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever..............something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever ............... to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever
Have you ever .............. in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything to make them understand
Have you ever ............. someone steal your heart away
You'd give anything to make them feel the same
Have you ever ................ for words to get you in their heart
But you don't know what to say
And you don't know where to start
[Chorus]
Have you ever ............... the one
You've dreamed of all of your life
You'd do just about anything to look into their eyes
Have you finally .............. the one you've given your heart to
Only to find that one won't give their heart to you
Have you ever ..............your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there
And all you can do is wait for the day when they will care
[Chorus]
Have you ever...?
Have you ever been in love? Yes, I have./ No, I haven't.
(have + subject + past participle- present perfect question form)
What are the other "have you ever" questions in the song?
Make your own "have you ever" questions...
EXAMPLE
Have you ever been to Greece? Yes, I have/No, I haven't
Have you ever found money in the street? Yes, I have/ No, I haven't

Adverb song (Tom Leher) LY
What is the difference between an adverb and an adjective?
Adjectives are used to describe things (nouns)
Adverbs are used to describe actions (verbs)
EXAMPLE: 1. The man is quiet 2. The man speaks quietly
(he doesn't say much) (He doesn't speak loud)
We add LY to adjectives to make adverbs.
Listen to the song, which adverbs are used?
Write a short story. Use at least 5 adverbs
EXAMPLE:
The unlucky day
Mary woke up late. It was nine o' clock and she had to be at work by nine thirty. She quickly brushed her teeth and got dressed. She waited patiently for the bus and after ten minutes it finally arrived. There wasn't a lot of traffic but the driver was driving very slowly. She felt angry with the driver and worried about her boss. She then got off the bus and hurried to work. Her boss said he was very disapointed, he looked at her very fiercely and told her to sit down. She said "Sorry" and politely explained her problem. He said, "It's too late, your fired!"
