Christmas Special!

Hello and welcome to our Christmas Special! After the success of last year's interactive blog entry we have another for you!
We have two versions of the popular song "Walking in the Air", from the Christmas film "The Snowman". The first is the original and the second is a version from an advert for a Scottish soft drink. You need to download the PDF and then watch these videos. First of all, the original Snowman

PDF

You'll find the answers on page 2 of the PDF. Next, you need to watch the Irn Bru version!

The answers are on page 3, as well as discussion points teachers can use in class.
The Irn Bru advert features some of Scotland's most famous sights. The first is the Falkirk Wheel, an amazing piece of engineering. This is followed by another famous engineering landmark, The Forth Rail Bridge. We then pass over the beautiful city of Edinburgh and move on up to Loch Ness where you can spot Nessie in the water!.

After Nessie there is an homage to the famous painting, The Monarch of the Glen, and then we see the Glenfinnan Viaduct, which you can see in the Harry Potter films. They then fly over the stunning Eilean Donan Castle and finally two of Glasgow's landmarks, The Royal Concert Hall and George Square. Please click on the name of each place in red to read more information.

We're sure that after seeing all these amazing places, your New Years's resolution will be to visit Scotland in 2014, and of course you can perfectly combine your visit with our courses. In 2014 we will also be launching our course exclusively for teachers working in bilingual schools. We'll have more information on this after the holidays.

Please have a look at last year's December blog Christmas special, which has lots of information about our traditions. You can also see the full film of the Snowman HERE. And until next time.....

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM THE EDINBURGH EXPERIENCE
