This year some teachers from the English department (me included) prepared a trip to New York. What started as an ambitious project, finished with a group of 50 students plus 3 teachers, all of them exploring the Big Apple from the 24th to the 30th of April. And now the time comes when we can't stop telling anecdotes to our families, friends and classmates. Besides, this week we are holding the school's cultural week dedicated to ... New York (difficult to guess, wasn't it?). We are having an exposition of photographs from the trip (there will be a prize for the best photograph), conferences and get-togethers for students so that they can share their travelling experiences in NY at the same time that they practise their English.
So, here you have some background music about this utterly incredible city. I hope you enjoy the music and the pictures.
Empire State of Mind (J-Ray and Alicia Keys)
With lyrics
And a classic, New York, New York by Frank Sinatra
Fancy singing?
I found another one:

I envy you a lot.
ReplyDeleteMaybe, next year you can go with us. Are you going to the conference about NY tomorrow? If so, see you there.
ReplyDeleteI'm affraid, but tomorrow I'm going to work. I'd like to hear your experiences there.
ReplyDeleteI saw your pictures yesterday and remind me one of the best trips of my life.
I love NYC too, and I expect that 53 of you love "her" too.
Hello, I'm Javier from Fuenlabrada and I do all the listenings except the last that are disabled.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very funny activity, especially "New York Karaoke".
Bye.
Thanks a million, Javier. I'm sorry you couldn't listen to the last song but I have already sorted the problem out so you can listen to it now if you want. Thanks for your help!
