Walking along Oxford Street (London)

As you know, these days we are going shopping in our class. We learnt Oxford Street is the most famous shopping street in London, with many big department stores and popular shops. It is also 2.4 kilometeres long!

Enjoy walking along Oxford Street with the help of this video. What things can you buy in Oxford Street? Which is your favourite shop?

We are street entertainers!

We Are Street Entertainers (Unit 1)

Works by Julian Beever

The other day we read a text about Julian Beever, a brilliant British pavement artist. We learnt his pictures are three dimensional. Here are a couple of interesting videos. In the first one you'll see Julian actually creating a picture, with his pieces of chalk and his camera. The second one is a compilation of some of his pictures. What's your favourite one?

Let's Visit Covent Garden!

These days we have read about Covent Garden, London. Here is an interesting website with information about the market and piazza, its street entertainers and its history. Moreover, here you can read what one of the street entertainers says about performing there.

If you prefer to watch a couple of street performers, here are two interesting videos. What are these people doing? Which one do you prefer? Why?





Would you like to visit Covent Garden? Well, if you have about 10 minutes, here is a nice man that can show it to you. Enjoy the visit!
