Where The Wild Things Are
Oct 17th
There is a new movie that comes out today in Canada called Where The Wild Things Are. It is based on a children’s book by Maurice Sendak. This was a book that I read as a child, but it was actually published in 1963. If you want to know more about this book you can click here. The main character’s name is Max. He is sent to his room and goes on to imagine a world of ‘wild things.’
Here is a reading of the children’s book that I was lucky enough to find on youtube. The original illustrations are pretty beautiful.
Now that you know the children’s story, check out the new movie. It looks awesome! Adults are really enjoying it. And best of all, the critics love it too. The music in the video below is by Arcade Fire which is a band originally from Montreal. I think their music with this movie is a great combination. Enjoy!
Of all the podcasts with 'real world' English examples, I like yours the best. Maybe its the fun you put into the lessons. The students can here that in your voices. And they also feel your dedication to what you are doing - it's just not a job you do, but a gift you give to everyone who listens. And while the students like the Lipservice PDFs for all the information it contains, as a teacher I am impressed by the professional effort put into making them. I give the Culips podcast and the Culips crew my highest recommendation, both as a teacher, and a listener.
