"For me this is my life now and I wouldn´t trade it for anything."

8.5.10



Hi guys, sorry for taking so long to update my website, but life has been pretty frantic lately.
The class today is a motivational class for advanced students based on Michael J. Fox´s life. It´s a very interesting and touching story, about how he dealt with Parkinson´s and how he´d transformed this difficult experience into a great book.
I would start the class by putting this quote on the blackboard: "For me now this is my life and I wouldn´t trade it for anything." (this is a sentence he uses during the interview)
Then I´d ask the students if they have been through any difficult moments lately (this is a very tricky question, because it can lead to tears and stuff like this, so please mind the students you´re teaching and feel if this is an appropriate topic to approach).
I´d do the reading part after this conversation to help the students to understand the topic better, then I´d move on to the listening activities

These are the sites:


Enjoy!
