America is a well-known song from the musical West Side Story. Leonard Bernstein composed the music; Stephen Sondheim wrote the lyrics.
West Side Story is a 1961 musical film directed by Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins. The film is an adaptation of the 1957 Broadway musical of the same name, which in turn was adapted from William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet.
This movie transplants the play Romeo and Juliet to New York City in the 1950s. The two families that hate each other are replaced by two street gangs. The Montagues become the Jets (white immigrants, probably from Eastern Europe), led by Riff, and the Capulets become the Puerto Rican Sharks, led by Bernardo. At a dance, Tony, former leader of the Jets and Riff’s best friend, and Maria, Bernardo’s little sister, see each other across the room and it’s love at first sight. With opposition from both sides, they meet secretly and their love grows deeper.....

1ST YEAR ESO D students are excellent models. In fact, after studying the present continuous and vocabulary related to clothes (click here , here and here), yesterday some of them did "their little turn on the catwalk" while their classmates were describing what they were wearing (video above and under the video you can read what the speakers said).
Thank you, Javier Rodríguez (Science teacher), amazing photographer, and thank you very much Javier Díaz (Plastic Arts teacher), for your incredible photocall.

As you probably know if you are a regular follower of this blog (CLICK HERE), some of my 1st ESO D students are going to be models on the catwalk (the others are going to describe what their classmates are wearing). We have already learnt vocabulary and the present continuous ("he/she IS WEARING"). Below you have what the "speakers" have written to describe what their classmates are going to wear. I have recorded their texts so that my 1st ESO D "speakers" can listen to them and practise the pronunciation. Soon the video on this blog!!!!!!
