HOMEWORK

Hi girls.

You have to print or write by hand  this song in your notebook and bring it for next class.



A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush


Girls, when you've got a good love who's gonna treat you right
But another guy offers you a better life
Right away you start to swoon
Because he offers you the moon
Tell me, is riches worth more than love & affection?
Don't be steered in the wrong direction 'cause
(A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush) remember girls
(A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush)
So hold onto what you've got

You're just losin' a love that's true
For a love that might last a day or 2
Why gamble when you have what you need?
You might be losing everything, girls
The grass looks greener on the other side
But you just might be taken for a ride 'cause
(A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush) remember girls
(A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush)
So hold onto what you've got

(instrumental)

Come on & tell me, is riches worth more than love & affection?
Don't be steered in the wrong direction 'cause
(A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush) remember girls
(A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush)
So hold onto what you've got

HOMEWORK PROVERBS



Hi girls.

The homework for next class is to match the English proverb with the Spanish  equivalent.

You will have a grade for that.

Think about your favorite proverb. Be ready to explain how and when to use it. Also think why we have proverbs in our cultures. Be ready to discuss this topic in class.

Example:
Two heads are better than one. ( Cuatro ojos ven mas que dos).

That means: team work is better than working alone.
