Actividades 1. Escucha el vídeo en inglés y canta esta hermosa canción de Louis Amstrong:

I see trees of green, red roses too

I see them bloom for me and you

And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white

The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night...

And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky

Are also on the faces of people going by

I see friends shaking hands saying "how do you do?"

They´re really saying I love you.

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow

They´ll learn much more than I´ll never know...

And I think to myself what a wonderful world

Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

Arbores virides video, rubras rosas quoque
