INSTRUCCIONES DEL BLOG

Este blog es para repasar y extender aprendizajes de English y Science de cuarto. También para divertirse y para ponernos en comunicación fuera de la escuela. Muchas de las entradas tendrán preguntas para hacer como una forma de estudio divertida. Las respuestas se escribiran en los comentarios (parte de abajo de cada entrada). Si se tiene cuenta google aparecerá automáticamente el nombre de quien escribe. Sino utilizar como anónimo pero no olvidar entonces poner el nombre de quien hace el comentario. No saldrá la respuesta inmediatamente, el profesor supervisará los comentarios antes de aparecer. Espero que llegen al blog sugerencias de todo tipo de enlaces y recursos interesantes para todos que podamos compartir.

THE SMARTEST GIANT IN TOWN (Part 1, look for part 2 on Youtube)




 THE SMARTEST GIANT IN TOWN
By Julia Donaldson
George was a giant, the scruffiest giant in town. He always wore the same pair of old patched-up gown.“I wish I wasn’t the scruffiest giant in town”, he said sadly. But one day, George noticed a new shop. It was full of smart clothes. So he bought…A smart shirt, a smart pair of trousers, a smart Belt,a smart stripy tie, some smart socks with diamonds up the sides, and a pair of smart shiny shoes.“Now I’m the smartest giant in town,” he said proudly.George left his old clothes behind in the shop.
He was about to go home when he heard a sound.On the pavement stood a giraffe who was sniffingsadly.“What’s the matter?” asked George.“It’s my neck,” said the giraffe.“It’s so very long and so very cold”“I wish I had a long warm scarf”“Cheer up!” said George, and he took off his stripytie.“It didn’t match my socks anyway,” he said, as hewound it round and round the giraffe’s neck. It made a wonderful scarf.“Thank you!” said the giraffe.
As George strode towards home, he sang to himself,“My tie is a scarf for a cold giraffe,But look me up and down-I’m the smartest giant in town.”
George came to a river. On a boat stood a goat who was bleating loudly. “What’s the matter?” asked George.“It’s my sail,” said the goat.“It blew away in a storm.”“I wish I had a strong new sail for my boat!”“Cheer up!”, said George. And he took off his newwhite shirt.“It kept coming untucked anyway,” he said, as hetied it to the mast of the goat’s boat. It made amagnificent sail.“Thank you!” said the goat.
George strode on, singing to himself,“My tie is a scarf for a cold giraffe,My shirt’s on a boat as a sail for a goat,But look me up and down-I’m the smartest giant in town!”
George came to a tiny ruined house.Beside the house stood a white Mouse with losts of baby mice. They were all squeaking.“What’s the matter?” asked George.“It’s our house,” squeaked the mother mouse.“It burned down, and now we have nowhere to live.“I wish we had a nice new house!”“Cheer up!” said George, and he took off one of his shiny shoes. “It was living me blisters anyway,” he said, as the Mouse and her babies scrambled inside. The shoe made a perfect home for them.“Thank you!” they squeaked.
George had to hop along the road now, but he didn’tmind. As he hopped, he sang to himself,“My tie is a scarf for a cold giraffe,My shirt’s on a boat as a sail for a goat,My shoe is a house for a little white mouse,But look me up and down-I’m the smartest giant in town!.”
George came to a campsite. Beside a tent stood a fox who was crying.“What’s the matter?” asked George.“It’s my sleeping bag,” said the fox.“I dropped it in a puddle.“I wish I had a warm, dry sleeping bag!”“Cheer up!” said George, and he took off one of his socks with diamonds up the sides. “It was tickling my toes anyway,” he said, as the fox snuggled in to it. It made a very fine sleeping bag.“Thank you!” said the fox.
 
George hopped on, singing to himself,“My tie is a scarf for a cold giraffe,My shirt’s on a boat as a sail for a goat,My shoe is a house for a little white mouse,One of my socks is a bed for a fox,But look me up and down-I’m the smartest giant in town!.”
George came to a squelchy bog. Beside the bogstood a dog who was howling.“What’s the matter?” asked George“It’s this bog,” said the dog.“I need to get across, but I keep getting stuck in the mud.“I wish there was a safe, dry path.”“Cheer up!” said George, and he took off his smart new belt.“It was squashing my tummy anyway,” he said, as he laid it down over the bog. It made an excellent path.“Thank you!” said the dog. The wind started to blow, but George didn’t mind.
He hopped on, singing to himself,“My tie is a scarf for a cold giraffe,My shirt’s on a boat as a sail for a goat,My shoe is a house for a little white mouse,One of my socks is a bed for a fox,
 
My belt helped a dog who was crossing a bog,But…My trousers are falling down!I’m the coldest giant in town!”
Suddenly George felt sad and shivery and not at all smart. He stood on one foot and thought. “I’ll have to go back to the shop and buy some more clothes,”he decided.He turned round and hopped all the way back to the shop. But when he got there, it was CLOSED!“Oh, no!” cried George. He sank down onto the door step and a tear ran down his nose. He felt as sad as all the animals he had met on his way home. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a bag with something familiar poking out of the top. Georgetook a closer look…“My gown!” he yelled. “My dear old gown and sandals!” George put them on. They felt wonderfully comfortable.“I’m the cosiest giant in town!” he cried, an he danced back home along the road.Outside his front door stood all the animals he had helped. They were carrying an enormous present.“Come on, George,” they said. “Open it!”George untied the ribbon. Inside was a beautifulgold paper crown and a card.“Look inside the card George!” said the animals.George put the crown on his head and opened the card.

Amazing intro. The rest of the video it's very difficult. (Una intoducción muy buena, el resto del documental es difícil)
