Blog à destination des élèves du collège Joliot Curie (69500 Bron) mis en place par M. Hattais (Anglais) et Mme Parisi (Italien) en 2013
Hi guys,
today we started the class with a warm up about school vocabulary.
What can you do when you have an hour off? What do you prefer? One hour of detention or one hour of cleaning? Tough choice, but you had to decide and agree!
Then we continued the lesson with a presentation about Henry VIII's wives.
Here is what you said:
The first marriage was an arranged marriage. Henry divorced the first wife because she couln't have a son.
He fell in love with his second wife. She didn't have a male heir and she flirted with other men. So she was beheaded.
His third wife died because there was a problem after childbirth.
His fourth marriage was an arranged marriage but his wife looked like a horse. So he divorced her.
He fell in love again with his 5th wife but, again, she flirted with other men. So, again, she was beheaded.
Finally, he married his last wife because he was sick. He needed a companion and a nurse. She survived but died one year later.
