Creating lesson...
1
No! My googles fell off!
2
Hi Polynesians! How are you?
3
I'm so happy because Karen finally accepted that I'm the king.
4
So, I can wear the crown all the time.
5
And she is making right now slime in Musas. I'll show you!
6
Polynesians, Karen has just finished a tutorial about a magnific slime.
7
And what? Because you must watch for sure a tutorial of Musas.
8
We are making a Slime competition, to see who makes the best slime.
9
But at large scales.
10
A lot! 20 liters. Not of half liter.
11
Not this! You need way too much!
12
Polynesians, this is so good.
13
We're doing a slime competition, to see who does it better.
14
Ready? Oh no!
15
Leslie, Karen and I will make a Slime competition. Do you want to join us?
16
It's of industrial quantities.
17
Really? Yes yes.
18
Ok! We arrived tothe first place, where Karen and I will buy things.
19
We hope we get everything here.
20
Lesslie went ahead of us, to another supermarket because she was buying different stuff.
21
We only have 10 minutes for this..
22
10? Let's go!
23
Polynesians, I assume that I found Rafa and he's in the soap section.
24
So, I think that he will do the soap slime.
25
I don't know what's he trying. Which consistency it has. He doesn't even know what he is doing.
26
Polynesians, I just saw Karen spying on me. She pretends she doesn't.
27
Karen, I saw you. Why were you spying on me?
28
You want to copy my type of slime, don't you?
29
Of course I wasn't spying on you.
30
I came here because I needed an ingredient for the slime.
31
Really? a wheel polish?
32
That's what you need.
33
I think so, yeah.
34
I don't know.
35
No! I just figured out what your slime will be about.
36
The shaving foam. Mine is different The good thing is that it didn't crash and it's not the same slime because I thought about it.
37
I thought on the other one that uses detergent.
38
But Lesslie, I don't know. We don't know which one she will use. Hopefully it's not the same as ours'.
39
And after our struggles at the supermarket.
40
It's time to go for Lesslie.
41
Polynesians, I will do the slime with glue.
42
Borax, diamantine, yeah!
43
Polynesians, I will do my slime, which is the favorite one I have Which is the shaving foam.
44
With white glue.
45
Also, I will use the liquid for lenses.
46
So, what I'll do is to find all that, before my brothers find their ingredients.
47
Polynesians, I will do the slime about detergent.
48
And all our slimes will be green.
49
To avoid weird color mixes.
50
So, I'll take many colors.
51
Ready, Polynesians!
52
Everything! Everything! All of this has slime.
53
That's what we will need to make 100 liters of slime.
54
Let's start!
55
Polynesians, this is my slime, with the detergent.
56
Look how it looks! It's totally crazy.
57
It's incredible!
58
Did you see that?
59
There's the chicken. Look!
60
The soap doesn't touch me.
61
Don't fool around! My slime is about to be done.
62
I'm beating you, girls!
63
Oh no! It's not possible.
64
Polynesians, I just poured my glue.
65
Now I'll put bicarbonate of water.
66
Now I will make a potion inside my little jar.
67
Like in Aladdin! Look how it's made!
68
"Like in Aladdin" Now, I will put all this.
69
No. I want to see it.
70
Then, I'm using the colorant. There it goes.
71
Polynesians, it looks so so cool.
72
I haven't done such a big slime ever.
73
Look how it looks!
74
It's unbelievable!
75
It's like a witch's soup.
76
Hey! Go and do your slime!
77
You're just here around.
78
Can I say something?
79
What? My slime is not working out.
80
It was very good but not anymore.
81
I believe that it needs more detergent, doesn't it?
82
No, I don't know Rafa.
83
Oh! Help me!
84
But you were saying around: "Let's do slime competition!" I'll figure it out myself now.
85
I'll watch one of Musas's tutorials.
86
Now, I will combine it.
87
Where does it get color from? from underneath.
88
It's time for the truth.
89
Because with this, you do the slime.
90
There it goes.
91
Look Polynesians! I put the kilo of lenses.
92
So, it will start to be real.
93
Insane! Look how this starts to divide! it's becoming a slime!
94
Look Polynesians!
95
No way! I'm dying! It's amazing!
96
Mine is better, though. Look!
97
No way! Yeah, for sure!
98
So, mine is better.
99
Not even close!
100
Polynesians, come and watch this!
101
There you go! Who did the best slime?
102
I just put color to this.
103
No way! It's green golden.
104
Incredible! It's a metalic green color.
105
It's incredible! Green golden doesn't exist.
106
Of course it does! Have you seen it?
107
There is green jewelry!
108
Green golden? Yes.
109
I said there is green jewelry!
110
And that means that there is green jewelry!
111
I am finished with my slime.
112
I want you to see how Lesslie's is going. I don't know where she is. She disappeared.
113
But fine. While Karen and Lesslie finish. Because look at Karen.
114
I'm struggling with my slime.
115
While Karen finishes, I'll blow this, so we can pour the slimes in here.
116
The best is yet to come!
117
Now I will shake all of this.
118
Wow! No way!
119
It's unbelievable!
120
It's very very very cool!
121
Now that everybody has done their own slime, let's put it on the body.
122
The best! That way, you cannot see which one is the best.
123
It's going to be an objective evaluation.
124
An objective evaluation?
125
It's personalized.
126
We have your working tools!
127
And this is what we will evaluate.
128
Consistency.
129
Meaning that consistency on the slime is good And that will be evaluated when it pours onot the person's head.
130
Quantity. That's the stick for.
131
The price. How much did it cost?
132
The fall and the how fun it was.
133
And everything is from one to five.
134
Let's start!
135
Let's see who did more. We'll mesure quantity with these sticks.
136
Let's see who did it.
137
The price, the cheapest one was mine.
138
Then, Rafa's and finally, yours, Karen, was the most expensive one, obviously.
139
Lesslie will be the first one. With her, we will evaluate her characteristics as her quality.
140
And her fall.
141
The time has come. This weighs as if it were 40,000 kilos.
142
One (let's see), two, three.
143
No way! No way! No way!
144
There is Lesslie's. I listen a sort of echo.
145
I'm on your hands. Let's see consistency.
146
Wow! Very good cosistency!
147
It's good to play this slime.
148
Is it good? Let's see!
149
It's fun but it's very sticky.
150
Well, Lesslie can't see anymore.
151
This is really terrible.
152
There you go! There you go!
153
I can see now. Lesslie can see now.
154
She couldn't see anything.
155
It's Karen's slime turn.
156
Oh no! How frightening!
157
It's falling.
158
Help! Don't cross the line!
159
Stretch your arms, Karen! To see the consistency.
160
It's insane!
161
What do I like of this slime?
162
It's very clean and can be cleaned quickly of the googles.
163
Nothing happened.
164
Karen, now you're like a booger.
165
For fun, it's very good.
166
Karen's is very fun. I like that you can unstick it easily.
167
Ok, we give it a good grade.
168
Come on, Lesslie!
169
Here we see....
170
My googles fell off!
171
It's coming into my eyes.
172
I don't see.
173
Now? No. I'm eating myself all.
174
Let's see the consistency!
175
I don't see.
176
I can see now.
177
It's so slippery.
178
I'm stuck. I'm stuck.
179
The thing is that you have a lot of soap.
180
Look at the consistency of my slime!
181
There it is!
182
It's very very good!

In the end, we destroyed the house.
196
My brothers left. I am cleaning myself. I'm almost done, Polynesians.
Why practice speaking with this video?
This exciting video about a slime-making competition provides an engaging context for english speaking practice. The lively interactions between the participants are perfect for learners who want to improve their conversation skills in a fun and relatable way. By shadowing the dialogue, you can pick up on casual expressions, playful banter, and specific vocabulary related to a trendy hobby. Engaging with this content not only makes learning enjoyable but also helps you build confidence in speaking.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
The transcript offers several key structures and expressions that are useful for English learners:
- “I think that…” - This phrase is a way to express opinions. For instance, “I think that he will do the soap slime,” demonstrates how to project your thoughts in a coherent manner.
- “I just figured out…” - A useful past simple structure to indicate a recent realization. For example, “I just figured out what your slime will be about” showcases how to communicate discoveries.
- “Do you want to join us?” - This question format is essential in conversational English for inviting others to participate. It illustrates how to make social invitations effectively.
- “I will do my slime…” - The future tense here is practical for talking about plans. Using “will” helps to convey future actions clearly, making your intentions precise.
Practicing these structures through repetition and shadowing will help you improve your English pronunciation and fluency.
Common Pronunciation Traps
As you engage with the video, be mindful of certain pronunciation challenges:
- The word “slime” may seem straightforward, but the emphasis on the ‘s’ sound and the blending with ‘l’ can trip up non-native speakers.
- Terms like “detergent” and “ingredients” often pose difficulty due to their multi-syllabic nature. Pay attention to the individual syllables to pronounce them correctly.
- Accented speech may also present challenges. Listen closely to how the speakers use intonation and rhythm, which is crucial for understanding and replicating pronunciation patterns.
Using this video as a medium through the shadowing technique, you can effectively hear and replicate these sounds, significantly enhancing your conversational skills. Learning through practical contexts, like this playful slime competition, provides an entertaining way to develop fluency and structure in your English speaking practice.
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
