Lyrics

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Activity# 5- Listening Workshop- Present Tenses

Hello Dear Students:

According to the results you got on your test, I´ve prepared a review covering the most common English grammar tenses. As it is we´ll known in English learning, we start from the simplest to the hardest. Considering this, this workshop will cover the present grammar tenses. Of course, I´m not the only one uncharged of that, you´ll be assigned presentations in order to reinforce each topic. You´ll be informed carefully about that later.

Let me take advantage of the opportunity to warn some people about the grades that I´ve been taking so far. There are students with a lot of missing notes and we are almost in the middle of the period. For those people, it´s time to buckle down and catch up on those missing tasks. Don´t tell me I didn´t warn you because I did it.



I wish you a great weekend!
