Following my last post on WORLD FOOD DAY (and on the 17th was / is International Day for the Eradication of Poverty), a powerful song that expresses many of our wishes - the world would be a much better place if we all cared. Some examples are depicted throughout the clip; people who, one way or the other, managed to change the world. We, too, can make a difference, if we DO care and DO something - and I know YOU do care because so many people played the game at http://www.freerice.com/ even though unnoticed... Thank you all!
Now watch this YouTube video till the very end, please!
Lyrics here - a great song not only for the message but also for the use of the 2nd Conditional, right?
About Me
- Teacher Alex
- Portugal
- I am from Coimbra, Portugal, and am currently teaching in a school in Soure, about 30 km away from Coimbra. I have been a teacher of English for over 20 years and have already taught different levels and age groups. After all this time I can say I love working with adult groups because there are no coursebooks and I can create my own resources. I am an avid reader, a blogger and very curious about free tools and their implementation in the classroom.

A great song and a fantastic video!!I must confess that I didn't know it. Thank you Alex! And the presentation you did is simply, excellent!
Hi again!
Fantantisc videoclip!
What saddens me is that some of these efforts never reach the people they are meant for. Did you know that Bob Geldolf gave the money raised by the concert to the same person responsible for the famine epidemics? T.I.A - This is Africa!

Thank you all for your support!
These subjects worry me a lot - I just can't even imagine starving CHILDREN - I don't sleep at night, do you believe me?
