TASK: IN A TOWN/CITY

Hello students,

  Through this new task, we are going to ask for directions, to describe your neighbourhood, to know the main buildings in a city, to design a leaflet with tourist information, to use the modals being polite, to describe your way home, to suggest any excursion and of course to work with a list of useful expressions and vocabulary about the subject.

Here you are the tasks, choose one of them and work on it:

1.-  Descibe giving directions the way you use to walk or drive going from the Adult Centre to your house.  Could you guess where does he/she live?  Could you give the name of the street where he/she lives?
2.-  You have just arrived at La Puebla de Alfindén and you need to go to the doctor, but you don't know how to get there.   Ask a person where exactly is it.  Give as many explanations as you can.  Choose any starting point and build a dialogue in a polite way.
3.-  Make a list of useful expressions and questions to ask and answer for directions.
4.- Name and give a little description of the main buildings and services we have here in La Puebla de Alfindén.  Imagine you have been asked to prepare a tourist information leaflet.
5.-  Write some praragraphs about your neighbourhood.  You can compare the way of living in a village and in a big city, your relationship with your neighbours or whatever you want.
6.-  Suggest any excursion starting from La Puebla de Alfindén to let us know some pictoresque and interesting place full of local colour.  Give explanations about how to get there on foot or by car.

Remember you will have to explain your tasks to the rest of the class as a speaking activity.

All the best,
Loli
