Dear Teacher,
The 18th June is the 200th anniversary of The Battle Of Waterloo – this month we publish the worksheet and Speak Up explanation video for the ABBA hit which compares a love story to the history-changing battle.
June’s New Downloadable Worksheets
This month’s additions all feature place names.
Waterloo – ABBA
The winner of the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest, this worksheet by Mena Bianco from Naples features a crossword and gap fill.
Brighton In The Rain – Robert Campbell
This song was written for the Upper-Intermediate level of the 1992 Cambridge English Course (CUP) and is considered one of the better examples of a song specially written for ELT – it is ideal for the Present Perfect. The author of this worksheet,Gary Friel, has an excellent youtube channel with the aim of allowing teachers to drill basic grammar in interesting and realistic ways.
Calico – Wheels Fargo and the Nightingale
Fans of line dancing will love this worksheet by the Italian rockabilly band, featuring a video of author Maria Gulczynska from Ancona, demonstrating the steps.
