You can also use the lyrics of the song "WHERE IS THE LOVE" by Black eyed Peas to work about Listening and compreension. It is a Very interesting song where you can work this subject very well and present many others grammar points such as expressions, slang, contractions, rap, hip hop, concepts about racism, graffiti etc.

example of activity

Figura 1: Charge about racism.

Questions:

What is happening in the situation?

Which dog is racist?

What is racism for you? Define it.

Hope they help you to work about this serious subject.

Hugs. ;-)

Dear friend if you have the time I �d sugest you to watch a very new movie called "Invictus": I watched it with my students and of course we talked about discrimation but we also talked about the way to overcome it. The film is talks about South Africa and The beginning of Nelson MAndela �s goverment. It deals especially with the believes white and black people havd and how he changed that using a sport, rugby. Besides you �ll be able to exppose your students to a different pronunciation/intination of English since all the actors, which by the way are great (matt Damon and Morgan Freeman) imitate the South African way of speaking in English. I hope you find this info useful
