Welcome back, everyone.
Today we're learning about Valentine's Day.
But Valentine's Day is next week.
Well, we're hearing Ken's plans for Valentine's Day with his girlfriend.
That's right.
He wants to make his girlfriend's favorite dish.
She really likes spaghetti.
So what's your favorite dish?
Do you know how to cook your favorite dish?
Think about that.
But right now we're going to move on to Conversation C.
Flowers are nice.
True.
And she likes roses.
You can also buy her some candy hearts.
She loves those.
I have news to tell her, too.
What's that?
I'm moving to Florida, too!
I want to be close to my girlfriend.
Wow! That's big news!
It is.
I'll tell Carol this week.
We'll all miss you.
(Music).
Well, here are some good ideas for Ken.
He could buy his girlfriend flowers.
A lot of people give flowers on Valentine's Day.
Ooh. I love flowers.
Those are a great gift for the holiday.
Oh, Katie, didn't you use to work in a flower shop?
Yes, I did.
It was a great job.
People really love to buy flowers.
So what other holidays did people buy flowers for?
Well, that's a great question.
People give flowers for Valentine's Day.
But they also give people flowers for Mother's Day, too.
And they sometimes give flowers for Easter or even someone's birthday.
So it sounds like flowers are a great gift for any time.
Do you think that's true?
Well, I think it's true.
Flowers make people happy.
Well, Rob's other idea might make Ken's girlfriend happy, too.
Ken can buy her candy hearts.
Oh, yummy. I love candy hearts.
I think they're good even though they're very sweet.
But you know, Nathan, I think Ken's big news will be a better gift for his
girlfriend.
Katie, that is right.
Ken's moving to Florida with his girlfriend.
Yes, he's leaving the studio.
He wants to be close to his girlfriend.
He wants to live near where she lives.
Well, I think I can say that's big news.
And that's our Calendar Phrase.
That's big news!
That's big news!
(Chinese).
Guess what!
I got a new pet.
That's big news!
It's a cute pet.
That's big news!
It's a fun pet.
That's big news!
I got an elephant!
Elephant!
That's really big news!
Yeah.
That's big news!
That's big news!
(Chinese).
It is big news.
But does that mean Ken won't be at the station anymore?
Well, yeah, that's right.
But I think he'll be happy in Florida.
It's sunny and warm there.
Well, I guess he wants to be close to his girlfriend.
I think Christina also wants to teach us what "be close to" means.
(Chinese).

And Super Sentence Man is here.
The sentence you are looking for is...

Now what super sentence did you need to use with Tommy?

So do you want to join me?
I'd love to.
Great!
Wait for me to get changed.
OK, I'll wait over there.
Great.
What a lesson!
We learned about a special holiday.
But we also heard some big news.
That's right.
Ken is leaving.
He's moving to Florida.
And everyone will miss him.
But that's OK.
He wants to be close to his girlfriend.
But now you know all about Valentine's Day.
So what will you do for this great day?
Will you send a card to someone special?
Or maybe you'll buy flowers for someone.
That's a great idea, too.
Or maybe you'll make dinner for someone.
I think that's a very nice thing.
But you should definitely tell the people that you love that you love them.
That's the best thing to do.
You're right.
Well, now it's time to say see you next time here on...
Let's Talk in English.
Goodbye.
