I will take you on the trip through the history,social life and culture of The Big Apple. Alicia Keys in her song "Empire state of mind" says it is "a concrete jungle where dreams are made of" and that "these streets will make you feel brand new, Big lights will inspire you."
On our tour you will be able to explore NYC neighborhoods and practice speaking, reading, listening and writing.The focus of this unit is on Future tense and the 1st conditional. The website consists of following sections:
"Choose the borough" section provides reading material as well as opportunity to express your opinion, listen to the podcasts, practice comprehension of the text.
"Interview your friends" is the section about your first assignment where you will practice speaking while using 1st conditional.
"NYC Movies I love" gives you opportunity to practice writing skills and share information with us about your favorite movie set in NYC.
If you need help with anything, feel free to contact me by filling in the contact form in "I need help" section.
"Padlet V&G" is created for you to practice and share vocabulary and grammar items with your peers.
I encourage you to do it at your own pace, at your own convenience, but have in mind that the deadline for all the assignments completion is due the last day of the first week of the instructions! I suggest you complete the "Choose your borough" section during the first week and "Interview your friends" and "NYC Movies I love" during the second week.
I hope you will have fun and at the same time learn more about NYC while practicing your language skills!
