Hold my hands (MIchael Jackson & Akon)

TRADITIONAL BRITISH SPORTS

The caber toss is a traditional Scottish athletic event practised at the Scottish Highland Games involving the tossing of a large wooden pole called a caber, similar to a telephone pole or power pole. It is said to have developed from the need to toss logs across narrow chasms to cross them. In Scotland the caber is usually made from a Larch pine tree. A caber typically is 19 feet 6 inches (5.94 m) tall and weighs 175 pounds (79 kg)



.Hurling (Irish: Iománaíocht/Iomáint) is an outdoor team sport of ancient Gselic originand played with sticks called hurles and a ball called a sliotar. The game has prehistoric origins, has been played for at least 3,000 years, and is thought to be the world's fastest field team sport in terms of game play.




Cheese rolling

From the top of the hill a round of Double Gloucester cheese is rolled, and competitors race down the hill after it. The first person over the finish line at the bottom of the hill wins the cheese. In theory, competitors are aiming to catch the cheese, however it has about a one second head start and can reach speeds up to 70 mph (112 km/h), enough to knock over and injure a spectator.




Primera Entrada

Empiezo con una lista de buenas intenciones.
Creo que un blog puede ser muy útil para que los alumnos expresen sus ideas y opiniones sobre un tema (por supuesto en inglés).
Igualmente puede servir para ejercicios de Listening por medio de canciones o vídeos. Este trabajo sería individual y en casa.
Lo mejor de un blog es que a los alumnos les gusta.
