FRIDAY 13 OCTOBER 2017

We started talking about holidays and travel

Which ways of travelling do you use most often?
When do you use them?
Which forms of transport have you never used?
Which would you like to try?
Where you do you prefer to stay on holiday?
What do you enjoy doing?
Tell your partner about somewhere in your country that is popular with tourists.

Listening can be the most difficult skill. It is important to practice as much as possible.
A great website to help you with this is listenaminute.com
On this website you can find 500 small texts in conversational English. These texts can help you to improve your pronunciation and identify common words and phrases that mother tongue natives use. Learning and copying these can both help you to sound more natural in English.

In the lesson we looked at one the texts about travelling.


Here you can the worksheets we used.


In the text we looked at you can find many verbs expressing likes and dislikes.

You can also mark the text to remember some important aspects of pronunciation, in particular word stress. For more information on this see
