I've just got my English teacher diploma and in september I'll be teaching...
When I was studying English at the end of 13, our English teacher brought a U2 record (I already was a fan, so you can imagine how I felt !) and we studied Sunday Bloody Sunday. We did a gap filler exercise ( it was too easy for me !) and then we talked about Ireland and the religious conflicts there. It was really interesting to deal with the Irish issue via a U2 song.
A few years later, we studied Pride and therefore MLK and the Blacks protest issue. Very interesting as well.
And, now, I'm the English teacher and I'm wondering : which U2 song is the best to teach ? I mean, apart from these 2 songs. Which one is the best to tackle a political or historical issue with French students ?
Thanks for your help !
