Lektionstips Engelska: An American in Sweden
För ett antal år sedan sprang jag på en blogg av den roligare sorten. Det var en amerikan som bodde i Sverige och bloggade om sina upplevelser. Språket är verkligen autentiskt och väldigt informellt, vilket gör texten väldigt lätt att ta till sig.Jag kontaktade bloggaren och bad att få använda hans texter i undervisningen, vilket han gärna lät mig göra. Jag har använt de här övningarna i många grupper och de lockar alltid fram skratt. Enjoy! Related:  Around the worldTips

Trail of Tears Many Native Americans suffered from exposure, disease and starvation on the route to their destinations. Many died, including 2,000-6,000 of 16,542 relocated Cherokee.[2][3][4] European Americans, Jews, and African American freedmen and slaves also participated in the Chickasaw, Choctaw, Muscogee Creek and Seminole forced relocations.[5] In 1831, the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Muscogee Creek, and Seminole (sometimes collectively referred to as the Five Civilized Tribes) were living as autonomous nations in what would be called the American Deep South. The process of cultural transformation (proposed by George Washington and Henry Knox) was gaining momentum, especially among the Cherokee and Choctaw.[6] Andrew Jackson continued and renewed the political and military effort for the removal of the Native Americans from these lands with the passage of the Indian Removal Act of 1830. In 1831 the Choctaw were the first to be removed, and they became the model for all other removals.

Australia Day | Focus on Mrs Jones Den 26e januari är det dags för Australia Day och självklart är detta en dag att uppmärksamma! Här är ett roligt klipp om vikten av att lägga rätt kött på grillen på Australia Day. Bra ingång för ett samtal kring hur traditioner kan spela stor roll. The barbie är tveklöst en av höjdpunkterna på Australia Day. Hur är det med våra mattraditioner? Håller vi ändå på med Australien kan det ju också vara en idé att lära lite mer om själs landet. 25 Fact About Australia är ett klipp där Australiensare visar varför de tycker just deras ö är mer storslagen än andra.

Urban legend An urban legend, popular legend, urban myth, urban tale or contemporary legend is a form of modern folklore consisting of fictional stories with macabre elements deeply rooted in local popular culture. These legends can be used for entertainment purposes, as well as for semi-serious explanations for random events such as disappearances and strange objects. Despite its name, an urban legend does not necessarily originate in an urban area. Rather, the term is used to differentiate modern legend from traditional folklore of pre-industrial times. For this reason, sociologists and folklorists prefer the term "contemporary legend". Because people frequently allege that such tales happened to a "friend of a friend" (FOAF), the phrase has become a commonly used term when recounting this type of story. Some urban legends have passed through the years with only minor changes to suit regional variations. Origins and structure[edit] Propagation and belief[edit] Belief and relation to mythology[edit]
