Count on me lip dub. Conditionals


I just love using this video to start explaining conditionals. My students were in 2nd ESO then ( that was 10 years ago so they are about to finish their degrees, maybe some are already working...) I have only kept track of some of them.  I hope they are all having as much fun as we had with activities like this one organised by the music teacher, Seso Durán.
 
If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea,
I will sail  the world to find you 
If you ever find yourself lost in the dar and you can't see
I will be the light to guide you 

1st type conditional 

If + present tense (If you find), - future tense ( I will sail)

3rd type conditional.


What do you think Adele is talking about? The story behind the lyrics is terrible. Can you guess?

And finally one Gloria Gaynor with the iconic song I will survive

At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
And so you're back
From outer space
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
I ............  ............  ......... that stupid lock, I ............  ............  ......... you leave your key
If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me
Go on now, go, walk out the door
Just turn around now


2nd type  Sad song, sorry

Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton

Would you know my name
If I .......... you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I ........... you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven
Would you ......... my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you ......... me stand
If I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart, have you begging please, begging please


If I were a boy  By Beyoncé

If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I....    ........  ....... of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I'.........  .......... it with who I wanted
And I'.... ..... ...... confronted for it
'Cause they'd stick up for me

If I were a boy
I think I ......... .................
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I....... ........a better man
I......... ............... to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy
I ......... .............off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
......

 1st type
IF you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me
All the things that we've been through
You should understand me like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing to break up our happy home
Oh don't get so excited when I come home a little late at night
Cause we only act like children when we argue fuss and fight
If you don't know me by now (If you don't know me)
You will never never never know me (No you won't)
If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me....
