By Jamile de Oliveira
Tangled
After receiving the healing powers from a magical flower, the baby Princess Rapunzel is kidnapped
from the palace in the middle of the night by Mother Gothel. Mother Gothel knows that the flower's
magical powers are now growing within the golden hair of Rapunzel, and to stay young, she must lock
Rapunzel in her hidden tower. Rapunzel is now a teenager and her hair has grown to a length of 70-
feet. The beautiful Rapunzel has been in the tower her entire life, and she is curious of the outside
world. One day, the bandit Flynn Ryder scales the tower and is taken captive by Rapunzel. Rapunzel
strikes a deal with the charming thief to act as her guide to travel to the place where the floating
lights come from that she has seen every year on her birthday. Rapunzel is about to have the most
exciting and magnificent journey of her life. (On at 16h p.m.)
Yogi Bear
Everyone’s favorite pic-a-nic basket-stealing bear comes to the big screen in Yogi Bear.
Jellystone Park has been losing business, so greedy Mayor Brown decides to shut it
down and sell the land. That means families will no longer be able to experience the
natural beauty of the outdoors — and, even worse, Yogi and Boo Boo will be tossed out
of the only home they’ve ever known. Faced with his biggest challenge ever, Yogi must
prove that he really is “smarter than the average bear” as he and Boo Boo join forces
with their old nemesis Ranger Smith to find a way to save Jellystone Park from closing
forever. (On at 6:20h p.m.)

6. THINGS YOU CAN DO IN CLASS: Teaching English with songs—An easy lesson Plan.
By Emile Uise
CONTENT: GOALS:
Practice of pronunciation, listening com-
prehension and linguistic native varieties • Observe carefully the pronunciation and intonation of words
(idiomatic, slang and colloquialisms, in a more meaningful and pleasant way;
contractions). • Promote entertainment and a well-being climate, propitious
to learning in the classroom;
RESOURCES
USED: • Make possible the interpretation of lyrics, reviewing the
grammar structures discussed in previous classes, as well as
• Copies of lyrics improve in students the ability to make inferences;
• Stereo • Understand the linguistic varieties such as native idioms,
• CD slang and colloquialisms present in songs.
•Whiteboard marker
METHODOLOGICAL PROCEDURE:
1. The teacher will begin the lesson by putting the song "I Wanna Know
What Love is" (sung by Mariah Carey or other song chosen) and will ask the
students to close their eyes in order to focus on the hearing of the song.
2. Then the educator will invite the students to comment on what they think
the song talks about.
3. After stimulating the ability to make inferences, the educator will give to
students envelopes containing sentences of song cut into strips and will ask
them to organize such sentences as they listen it again. If necessary, the
teacher must repeat the song until all of the class has finished the activity.
4. The teacher will continue the class, correcting the activity and taking away
the doubts about intonation and pronunciation highlighted by the students.
5. With the sentences already organized, the teacher will ask the students to
try to analyze the lyrics by paying attention to the slang and colloquialisms,
contractions, in order to get a general understanding of the lyrics.
