February Week One

This week's topic was all about adventure and expeditions, both famous ones in history and possible discoveries in the future.

Listening:
Learners can try listening (and readalong) activities about a 19th century arctic expedition, or about a trip to the south pole.

For original version, why not try some videos from the youtube channel Polyphonic or podcasts such as Song Exploder, All Songs Considered, or content over at BBC Music.

Reading:
Learners can try a Breaking News English article about a daredevil adventurer, or a brochure and reading comprehension activity about adventure travel.

For original version, I suggest selecting some articles to read from longform about Adventure, such as these.

Writing:
This week for writing, I'd like you to write a story based on one of the expeditions we discussed in class: to the artic, South Pole, the moon, Mount Everest.  Or maybe you'd like to think about possible future expeditions and write a story about that.

Get to it!
Best,
Kelly
