Good morning my super wonderful students!
Welcome to the English class!
Hi students, you know who Charlie Chaplin was, I know. He was born on 16th April 1889. That's part of the culture in English spoken countries ( and of the world), so we are going to remember something about him.

Charlie Chaplin was an English comic actor, filmmaker, and composer who rose to fame in the silent era. He is mostly famous for his screen persona "the tramp".
