Questions and answers

We're going to work with wh- question words.

1. We pick one of the  Wh- question words
2. We write 5 interesting questions.( Think about what you're learning in your other subjects, Science, History...)
3. We do some research to find out the answers.
4. We draw a project with the questions and answers similar to the model.

A postcard from places I've never visited

This activity is based on the character of Albert in The Parrot's Theorem by Denis Guedj. Albert is a Parisian taxi driver who can talk about the most beautiful cities in the world but has never traveled out of Paris. He has learned about those places listening to the clients that he has picked up at the airport from all over the world.

What are we going to do? We are going to choose one of the pictures and write a Whatsapp text to a friend from a place we have never visited.
