Saint Valentine´s Day

       

 

                        

                      

 

 Saint Valentine´s Day.

                   Saint Valentine´s Day is the most romantic day of the year all over the world. For our students it is a very important day where they can give way to their emotions. When we celebrate this event we usually use several activities such as reading and writing love poems, listening to love songs and even writing friendship cards or even love cards. Also there is a tradition amogst the teachers of English to pay attention to popular love sayings as these ones: 

 

I claim there ain't
Another Saint
As great as Valentine.
- Ogden Nash.

 

Love me and the world is mine.
- David Reed.

 

Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction.
- Saint-Exupery.

 

Better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all.
- St. Augustine.

 

Sympathy constitutes friendship; but in love there is a sort of antipathy, or opposing passion. Each strives to be the other, and both together make up one whole.
- Samuel Taylor Coleridge.    

 Some of the songs we have used with our students this special day are:
