EARTH



This is a fantastic song because it  talks about how important it is to help our earth, not only to be clean, but for ourselves and for our family.How important is recycling and how it helps. How people destroy the planet and how animals and animals die every single day.So next time that you want to drop litter,remember that Earth is not only a planet; it is your home.

So touching! Well done, Sevi! Christina ๐ŸŒ⭐️๐Ÿ‘

MY GOALS FOR 2020

  I have many goals for 2020. One of my goals is to get better at basketball. I have been playing basketball for 7 years, which is why it is my favourite sport. I like watching this song  because it reminds me that to succeed, you have to keep trying and that you mustn’t give up. That’s why it is one of my favourite songs.

We never give up, Aris! Your effort counts! Christina ๐Ÿ‘



Goals in 2020!!

I chose this song for this homework because I want in the new year to be "You shine".This words motivate me to be the best in everything I want to do in 2020 and my whole life.Katty Perry is a very good singer, everytime I listen to her sing, I want to dance with my friends.Everytime I listen to her, I gather the strength to continue!!!

You already shine, bright lady! (Christina๐Ÿ’)

Imagine dragons

      Imagine Dragons are a pop band from Las Vegas consistin of the lead singer, Dan Reynolds, the guitarist, Wayne Sermon, the bassist, Ben McKee and the drummer, Daniel Platzman. However, the true meaning behind the band's name is a secret. The group says that Imagine Dragons is actually an anagram made up of the letters of different words, but they won't tell what the original words are!
     Imagine dragons have won 3 American Music Awards, 9 Billboard Music Awards, 1 Grammy Award and 1 World Music Award. And they have been together as a band since 2008 until now and they're getting better and better. 
     They have written too many songs, but some of them are most famous than the others. Like; Believer, Thunder, Demons, Radioactive and On the top of the world. Their first song is It's time.
      So if you don't know them don't lose your time! In my next post I'm going to put videos of them!

Meeting Patricia

 A few days ago our English class had the great apportunity to interview Patricia Johnston! She's an American woman who leaves in France. She's a very talented musician and a lyrics writter, too! Her job is music company and also managing young talents and also older ones. She also plays the violin at high level notes. For us it was a very good experience not just to improve our English speaking ,but also to talk to a person from another country who's also a professional artist. Patricia also loves jazz anf mostly folk music  which I don't really like, but in my opinion it's the kind of music that she can express herself! 

By the time we were little kids, at our English shcool we are used to doing a celebration at the end of the school season where we are given some roles to play and also at the end of it we sing a song. Well 7 years ago our English teacher chose a fantastic song for kids and it turned out that it was written by Patricia Johnston! Seven years from then and I still remember most of the lyrics, because some things are just unforgettable! That was all from me. I'm sorry that I can't tell you about the artists that Patricia manages , because I couldn't find them and I finally wanted to tell Patricia to keep on doing what she does. You do a great job Patty,good luck!

~Talking about music on skype with Patricia Johnston: My impressions~

 A few days ago, we had the opportunity to discuss with the musician, artist manager and company director Patricia Johnston about her job and ask her some questions we might had. It was an amazing experience. Not many people have the opportunity to communicate live with other people from different countries and speak English with them. A big thanks to Ms. Christina Markoulaki who managed this "meet up". 

 Patricia answered to all of our questions and she told us some things about her job. She also introduced us some mucisians who personally, I really liked. 

 First, she introduced us Gilad Hekselman, a young talented guitarist, who is specialised in jazz music. Here's a site where you can find some useful information about Gilad's Summer Tours 2014, a photo gallery with some photos of Gilad, download some Gilad's songs e.t.c. Gilad Hekselman PRESS HERE TO VISIT THE SITE. My favourite Gilad's song is Gilad Hekselman- This Just In.


When we asked Patricia what her favourite kind of music was, ahe told us that liked all kinds of music but she loved listening to folk music. She mentioned us one of her favourite musicians Mory Kante. Mory Kante is a famous West African musician, best known internationally for his 1987 hit song "Ye ke ye ke".


 She also mentioned us Line Kruse, a danish violinist and composer who is famous worldwide. Every year she performs all over the world and she has a lot of fans. Here's a site where you can find every thing you would like to know about Line. Line Kruse PRESS HERE TO VISIT THE SITE.


 My favourite part of this duscussion was when Patricia told us about the kids music factory she runs. Almost everyone love kids music. Personally I adore it. I think it's so cute! So, she runs a kids music factory with songs obviously for kids. When we were younger, we used to sing these songs with Ms. Markoulaki and they helped us to improve our English. Here's the kids music factory site:
