The song "Fireworks" has already been selected in the level "ADVANCED". Fill in the blanks with the missing words at the same time you listen to the lyrics. You can stop the song as many times as you need.

    Hello Arantxa! I´m María Ortiz.
    I always thought that learning English would be easier as songs, stories …
    I learned the song, the more I listened to it and sang it, the easier it made me pronounce it.
    It’s been a really fun exercise.

    Hi Arantxa!! I’m Antonio Sánchez from 1ºA. How are you? I hope you're fine.
    I had fun with this activity and I think that it’s an easy way to speak English correctly.
    I’ve learnt the lyrics easily. I already knew this song and I had sung it before.
    Although I‘ve pronounced well, I think that I can pronounce better.
    See you soon!! Regards❤️

    Hi Arantxa! I'm Valeria García from 1A
    It is great to be able to learn English or even another language in this way. I listen to many songs in another language and with the lyrics! and I think that I improve the pronunciation. I thought I wouldn't like this Katy Perry's song, but I've been listening to it most of the day.

    See you!

    Hi Arantxa, I'm María del Mar, from 1º A

    I really enjoy this kind of excercises because they are not the traditional oral comprehension activities.
    I always listened and sang this song when I was a child, but I did it with no idea about the lyrics, and now I can do it correctly.
    Now I can pronounce better because I know the words that I'm saying.

    Bye!
