Break

Listen to the lyrics of this song and try to relate it to  the situation we are living during these days.

Here are some tongue twisters (trabalenguas) in English to try at home, try to say the words quickly!

I scream, you scream, we all scream, for ice cream!

 

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers

A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked

If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers

Where’s the peck of pickled peppers that Peter Piper picked?

 

I saw Susie sitting in a shoe shine shop.

 

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck, if the woodchuck could chuck wood?

He would chuck, he would, as much as he could,

And chuck as much wood as a woodchuck would,

If a woodchuck could chuck wood.

 

She sells sea shells by the seashore

And the shells she sells by the seashore are sea shells for sure.

 

All I want is a proper cup of coffee,

Made in a proper copper coffee pot

I may be off my dot

But I want a cup of coffee

From a proper coffee pot.

 

Tin coffee pots and iron coffee pots

They’re no use to me –

If I can’t have a proper cup of coffee

In a proper copper coffee pot

I’ll have a cup of tea.

Baking

Hello everybody I hope you are all well. Recently I have noticed the increase in home baking as people are staying at home because of the virus. Many people are keeping busy by trying new recipes and cooking/baking. I went to the supermarket and couldn’t find any flour or baking powder because a lot of people are buying items that are needed for baking. People are uploading pictures of what they have made on social media platforms such as Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok. A very popular trend on TikTok is making Dalgona coffee. There are many videos online demonstrating how to create the coffee.
