HEARING

While you are reading this, a lot of things are going on around you: people are listening to music, reading books or newspapers, chatting with friends, cooking, doing homework, working, sleeping ...
And we can guess what is happening around just by one of our senses:hearing!

From my room, this is what I can hear right now:

And from those sounds I can say that some children are playing in the park. Now it's your turn. Close your eyes and listen. What can you hear?

Click on comments and write about what people around you are doing. Write at least two sentences. You can also write about animals or the weather, as long as you use your sense of hearing.

Our school has planned an art exhibition in the library, and you have been selected as guides. You will have to be prepared to describe one or two pictures to visitors. We may have someone recording your presentation in the library!

1. Work in pairs.
2. Decide which picture(s) from the video above you are going to describe, and tell your teacher.
3. Get ready for your presentation. You will have to talk about:
   

• the name of the picture and the artist,
• what colours the artist has used,
• what you can see in the painting (people, animals, a river, etc.),
• what the weather is like,
  
• what people are wearing,
• what people are doing,
• how people look like (feelings).
