On Penny Lane
there is a barber showing photographs
Of every head he's had the pleasure to have known
And all the people that come and go
Stop and say hello
On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
The little children laugh at him behind his back
And the banker never wears a mac
In the pouring rain...
Very strange
Penny Lane
is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back
In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass
And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen.
He likes to keep his fire engine clean
It's a clean machine
(Trumpet Solo)
Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Four of fish and finger pies
In summer, meanwhile back
Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
A pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
And though she feels as if she's in a play
She is anyway
Penny Lane the barber shaves another customer
We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim
Then the fireman rushes in
From the pouring rain...
Very strange
Penny Lane
is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back
Penny Lane
is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies... Penny Lane.

WEBQUEST: NOW LOOK FOR YOUR HERO!
GUIDELINES:
1) Search the internet and try to find basic information on your hero. (You can use wikipedia.)
2) Then find relevant pictures of your hero through Google Images.
3A) When you have enough pictures and information, write a short text which explains a few things about your hero.
3B) Finally don't forget to explain why this hero is so special!
If you need help with the vocabulary you can either ask your teacher or use this dictionary on your own!
PRESENTATIONS!
Next time you will make a short presentation of your subject. So you will have to:
- 1) Explain why your subject/hero is special. - 2) Focus on what is important (facts/dates). - 3) Conclude: you can show a video or play a song. If you have neither of the latter: just say "Thank you!"
EVERYBODY'S GOT A HERO! IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE,
MAYBE YOU ARE ONE!
