January Week One

This week we talked about awful winter weather, basing our conversation on my experiences in the US over the holidays and some original version newspapers I brought back with me.

Listening:
Learners can try a listening activity about Winter Snow, Britain's Big Freeze, or Seasonal Changes.  See if you can pick up some weather vocabulary from the activities!

For original version try watching a video about the extreme weather at the top of Mount Washington in New Hampshire or any of the NYTimes videos about extreme weather, about the Bomb Cyclone.

Reading:
Learners can read an article about the weather from the British Council.  or this text about the weather in the U.K.

For original version read this article about how a dog survived 5 days under the snow in Maine or the NY Times suggestions about how to win at winter when you hate winter.

Writing:
Wild winter weather has been the source of some recent controversy in the Spanish media.  Please write an article describing how the snow affected holiday travel last weekend and how people responded or reacted.
Best,
KellT
