There are quite a few videos available for free, and this continues to add up every now and then, along with lesson plans for different proficiency levels. The videos are of appropriate length and intriguing, I believe. Worth a look anyway.

The sun was shining. The birds were singing. She jumped out of bed and put on her new white dress. She put on a new red belt. Then she put on her new red shoes. She combed her beautiful blonde hair and put on a red headband that matched her belt and her shoes. She remembered that today was Valentineā€™s Day! She wondered if the new boy in her class had sent her a card. She ran out of the house and skipped down the path to the mailbox. She pulled at the door of the mailbox and it flipped open. There were several letters in there. But was there a Valentine card addressed to her?

The birds were singing and Tom was playing outside in the yard. Suddenly he saw a flying carpet above him. He just ran and jumped onto it. It was so incredible to fly on the carpet seeing all around from the birdā€™s eye view. Big trees, kids who were playing, a lady who was selling an ice cream, picnic table ... But suddenly the carpet started to slow down and as it wanted to land Tom woke up and realized that it was a n amazing dream. zeynep22 https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/544738471 2020-05-01 19:19:16 UTC https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/544738471 My romantic storyboard ireneioannou2 https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/546515716 This is just note taking but it might be a good idea for students to do this with vocabulary they already have as a first step.

I am afraid I canā€™t print the story board template so am just adding a couple of pictures to create the atmosphereĀ 


1 It is dusk but there is still light. It is springtime.Ā  There is a couple in their early twenties maybe, (dressed in fifties fashion) in the distance, walking along a path in a park with trees all around, the sun shining and the birds in the trees are singing. There are wispy clouds in the sky and the sun is breaking through. You can see a lake in the background.There is hardly anyone around.
2 The couple continues walking slowly and a young boy on a bicycle cycles past. He rings the bell of his bike.They are not talking just looking into each othersā€™ eyes, a look of contentment on their faces.
3 They come to a picket fence gate, the entrance to a front garden of a small house. The house is blueish, three windows with hanging baskets at the front, a classic twee country house. The garden has an abundance of colourful flowers and an arbour.Ā 
4 The young man opens the gate, allowing his companion to enter first.
5 They exchange a kiss, they almost seem to be in a daze and the young lady enters the house. Neither of them speak.]]> 2020-05-06 11:48:57 UTC https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/554491027 https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/554494743 2020-05-06 11:51:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/554494743 jonedney124 https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/616643018 2020-06-08 11:20:47 UTC https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/616643018 danielaportobarcelona https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/616697570 It was a partly-cloudy late afternoon and Sheila was coming home feeling sad and exhausted. The dim light of the sun hidden behind the dark clouds gave the scene a ghostly look.Ā 
She was wearing a beautiful old long dress, dark brown leather boots, white silk gloves, an old-fashioned dark handbag, an elegant big hat and a very old umbrella.Ā 
She walked towards her house stamping her feet as if she was going to fall to the ground. Her eyes were lost somewhere in the horizon. She knew she had lost something very important, her honour, her pride, herĀ  status. She felt defeated by life as if she was carrying a heavy bag on her shoulders.Ā 
The birds singing at the sides of the narrow path gave her the strength to keep on walking to her house where she could feel safe, safe from the cruel world that had hurt her so badly.]]> 2020-06-08 12:00:08 UTC https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/616697570 https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/643838882 The opening minute of sounds
There is a birthday party for a prince in 1880 in Paris. The aristocratic class are dancing in the palace at night. The women wear dresses and menĀ  wear knight suits.Ā 
The prince, the Queen, and the king are sitting on the thrones watching the people dancing while drinking wine. The three are talking at the same time of servants are talking about the customs of the invited people and how they are beautiful. The servants put the food and wine in the left side of the hall and wish if they could take some food. They are leaving to go to their rooms to sleep. The king stands up to stop the music and announced his wish for his son to leave happily ever after, so do the others. The king commands to re- play the music. The prince stands to introduce his fiancĆ©e and get down of the throne to dance. After a while, the king asked to stop and join the meal that contains tarts, cakes, and wine.]]> 2020-06-30 09:58:00 UTC https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/643838882 Snake harasahalviktoria777 https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/1069865585 It was a beautiful sunny morning. The girl was walking along a forest path. She was smiling. Through the chirping of birds, you can hear magical music. Suddenly something happened. What is it? A small bird fell out of its nest. Her mother started circling around, and they were attacked by a snake. A brave girl chased the snake away. She put the chick on a tree and, satisfied, went home.]]> 2021-01-09 15:20:42 UTC https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/1069865585 Susana Reyes https://padlet.com/bfieducation/blg33thlwqxmyceh/wish/1071594041 A woman in a green dress walks toward her favorite place, the library.TheĀ  librarian gives her a mysterious book. She sits in a comfortable place where a sense of peace arises. Some people at this quiet place read, meanwhile others are busy and focused. Suddenly the woman in the green dress listens to chirping birds and a childish voice...it is time to wake up.
