Activity 11: create a listening activity

Level of students: Intermediate (peferibly adults)
Song: Imagine, John Lennon

Warm up: The teacher will ask the students about the hippie movement. This will lead into a little speaking exercise. Later s/he would introduce John Lennon and his song IMAGINE. The learners would be asked to put the verses of the song in order.

Exercise: After the verses are in the correct orders, learnes will be asked to identify all the verbs in the song and asked to give the past tense form of each of them.



You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope somday you'll join us
and the world would be us one

Imagine all the people
living for today
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
No hell below us
Above us only sky

Imagine there's no country
It isn't hard to do
Nothin to kill or die for
and no religion too

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can

Imagine all the people
living life in peace
No need for greed or hunger
a brotherhood of man

You may say I'm a dreamer
but I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world would live us one
