Monthly news from podcastsinenglish.com Dear Teacher There's nothing nicer than the start of summer: sitting outside, having a nice meal, enjoying the sun. But then buzz buzz the insects and Creepy-crawlies come and join you! We talk about the ones we like and the ones we don't in our first podcast of the month. What is your favourite insect? This is for level 1. We have three Podcasts of the month. The first, for level 1, is Chalk and cheese (one of our pie vids), listen to how our two dogs are so very different. For level 2, we have another pie vid about Geocaching, a great hobby for those who like the countryside and are a bit techy too! For level three we talk about a British icon: Stonehenge. Listen and find out why it is so popular for the summer solstice. The sidebar has lots more podcasts for the month of June including The Fab Four. More than fifty years later you can still hear The Beatles' songs being played, why is that? and Mike the musician There's more to playing the guitar than Jackie realises. (World Music Day is 21 June) Note that while most podcasts are free, podcasts 1 - 75 are for members only. Each podcast has plenty of worksheets and materials which make a ready-made lesson. There are over 500 to choose from, so why not join pie! Or, why not enter our monthly competition? The winner gets 3 months free pie membership! Just answer this question: What are the builders doing in the road? Are they a) building a new wall, b) making a new road, or c) putting in new pipes? The answer is in this podcast and video: Big machines. Write your answer on our Contact us page. Remember to tell us your name and where you are from. Good luck! Answers by the end of the month.
