Do Women Like Sitting On Men's Faces?

digital, the film never gets long

All we know and all have used the film in the classroom, and often work quite well. It is one of the arts that have better reception and dissemination among the general public. In its smaller format tends to work equally well. In this case I propose a short film I've used several times in the classroom and that usually works very well is the by Nacho Vigalondo ... You can make an introduction of the director, with his first film (referring to the author's own website, if you want Wikipedia, his blog on the newspaper COUNTRY. If we want to expand a bit more and not focus only this director, it can introduce other new filmmakers (novice, who only made a film so far and almost all successful in their field) who are with that first film, talk a little about this new generation heterogeneous . There is an article in the country of the last month quite useful for this forecast.

The activity can be done both in class and online, if we use the blog, it is recurrent as homework. Ideally, combining classroom work with online and with one final task in class. The very broad, the synopsis of the film is what can you do for love. Let's see:



If the work is done only online, asked students to anonymously (and usually works best) to tell us what's worse, the best, the most fun, they have done for love or vice versa, what they have done for him / her (Also can be given the option to discuss issues as a declaration of love, a breakup, a crush, a hot guy / a ...). To be anonymous to work with anonymous comments that each student will try to guess who is responsible for every experience.

If instead, we also work in class in class with this material (on paper, whiteboard, on PocketPCs, etc.), assuming that students already know enough, they will work in pairs and decide who is the author of each comment. Once established, the author of each story, creating a debate about the stories and others that may arise. Usually arise in this part amusing anecdotes and students usually pretty fun. This activity is used as reinforcement for comparison expressions and reinforce the comparative and superlative forms, can also be used for many more skills.

As a final activity I propose that in groups of four, taking into account everything we've worked with before, write a decalogue of which are the best and worst ways to propose to any person. Then they read in class by voting proposals and will reach a final article by double Decalogue whole group.
