Keep talkin', whoah keep talkin'

Fuel injection cut off, and chrome plated rods, oh yeah

You know that I ain't braggin',
She’s a real pussy wagon - greased lightning

III PART

Summer lovin' had me a blast

Summer lovin' happened so fast

I met a girl crazy for me

Met a boy cute as can be

Summer days drifting away, to uh-oh those summer nights

Well-a well-a well-a huh

Tell me more, tell me more

Did you get very far?

Tell me more, tell me more

Like does he have a car?

She swam by me, she got a cramp

He ran by me, got my suit damp

I saved her life, she nearly drowned

He showed off, splashing around

Summer sun, something's begun, but uh-oh those summer nights

Well-a well-a well-a huh

Tell me more, tell me more

Was it love at first sight?

Tell me more, tell me more

Did she put a fight?

It turned colder - that's where it ends

So I told her we'd still be friends

Then we made our true love vow

Wonder what she's doing now

Summer dreams ripped at the seams, but oh those summer nights

"The Best Damn Thing"
(Avril Lavigne)

Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey hey ho

I hate it when a guy doesn't get the door

My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see

That you're not not not gonna get any better
You won't won't won't you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same

I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen

Alright, alright
Yeah

I hate it when a guy doesn't understand
Why a certain time of month I don't wanna hold his hand
I hate it when they go out, and we stay in
And they come home smelling like their ex girlfriends

I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody's gonna see

Give me an A (always give me what I want)
Give me a V (be very very good to me)

R (are you gonna treat me right)
I (I can put up a fight)
Give me an L (let me hear you scream loud)

Alright

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey

I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen

SEVENTH GRADE A: CRY ON MY SHOULDER


Cry On My Shoulder
(Deutschland Sucht Den Superstar)

If the hero, never comes to you
If you need someone, you're feeling blue
If you wait for love, and you're alone
If you call your friends, nobody's home
You can run away, but you can't hide
Through a storm and through a lonely night
Then I'll show you there's a destiny
The best things in life, they are free

But if you wanna cry: cry on my shoulder
If you need someone, who cares for you
If you're feeling sad, your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do

If your sky is grey oh let me know
There's a place in heaven, where we'll go
If heaven is, a million years away
Oh just call me and I'll make your day
When the nights are getting cold and blue
When the days are getting hard for you
I will always stay by your side
I promise you, I'll never hide

But if you wanna cry: cry on my shoulder
If you need someone, who cares for you
If you're feeling sad, your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do

But if you wanna cry: cry on my shoulder
If you need someone, who cares for you
If you're feeling sad, your heart gets colder
Yes I show you what real love can do

SEVENTH GRADE B- MEET ME HALF WAY



MEET ME HALF WAY

In a lifetime
Made of memories
I believe
In destiny

Every moment returns again in time
When I've got the future on my mind
Know that you'll be the only one

Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Out where the world belongs
to only you and I

Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Make this a new beginning of another life.

In a lifetime
There is only love
Reaching for the lonely one

We are stronger when we are given love
When we put emotions on the line
Know that we are the timeless ones

Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Out where the world belongs
to only you and I

Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Make this a new beginning of another life.

Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Out where the world belongs
to only you and I

Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Make this a new beginning of another life.

8th Grade: That's what friends are for. By Dionne Warwick and Whitney Houston.

That’s What Friends Are For
Performed by Dione Warkwick and Friends




That’s What Friends Are For
(Dione Warwick & Friends)

And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the change to say That I do believe I love you
And if I should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today and then if you can remember

Keep smilin' keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me
for sure

That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more

That's what friends are for

Well you came and opened me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you
Oh, And then for the times when we're apart
Well then close your eyes and know
These words are coming from my heart
And then if you can remember

Keep smilin' keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me
for sure

That's what friends are for
In/For good times in/and bad times

I'll be on your side forever more

That's what friends are for

Some considerations about using a blogger

What's up everyone! Please read this:
I want to express some considerations about the strategies for teaching and learning English I have learnt since I am in this teachers college in Maracay.

For example, the presentation we made in the first sem, named English on line or E-mail experience. Although, I thought they were difficult to do it, after familiaring with them, I think they were an excellent way to improve our English.

I normally use posters, debates, group activities, draws, music, songs and games to teach. But the idea on apply internet for teaching is really spectacular because it attracts the attention of young children and teens. I'm really not very experienced using a computer because I treat with it at my own rythm. But when I sit in front of a computer to work, I really let my creativity free to create so many things.

Well, I congratulate to the teacher Manuel for applying computer because they are a valuable tool to teach and learn a strange language.
