Shutter : the mother's spirit

Image
Today we watched the video we started to study last time. It's about a woman who saw a photo and asked a journalist about it. We could see a spooky picture with a ghost, but it was a fake made on a computer. The journalist showed another photo to the girl. We could see a ghost on the second picture. Maybe it was the spirit of the mother of the man=maybe it was the spirit of the man's mother. We thought it was an extract of an old movie. The man had a magazine for three years where he published scary photos.

Audio Comprehension

Today we listened to an audio document, and here's what we understood: There are two people in the document, one man and one woman. There were sounds and noises in the document, and we can hear music. Seyfana heard something like : "if you can tell where you get your photos from?" The woman is asking to the man if the photo is real. They speak about one photo in particular. The man answered "I don't say that." Hugo heard that the mother of the man was dead. We also heard "it's real." In the middle, there is terrifying music.

Ghost Photograph

The Ghost Today we studied a picture together in class. At first we could only see a child. This little girl was crying, maybe because she was sad. Then we could see her family, or maybe friends. There were more girls. One seemed to have a wine bottle. They seemed drunk. We imagined that maybe the little girl was crying because she didn't want the other girls to go away.  Finally, Hugo noticed a strange shape (a strange form) at the bottom : it was the face of a child. Maybe it was a ghost.   Homework: Learn your lesson Write one sentence a day using the vocab sheet
