Hey everyone, John from Cool English here, back with your weekly activity update. We're launching a new series in our Yelp Review reading activities, focusing on popular tourist destinations. Our first stop? Miami.
In this activity, you'll encounter reviews of four key attractions - a hotel, a restaurant, a shopping center, and an arts & entertainment venue.
Here's what's unique about these reviews:
Dual Perspectives: Each location has both a positive and a negative review. Learning how to compliment and critique places can be invaluable for our students, particularly when visiting these destinations.
Interactive Vocabulary: Each review highlights five words. Click on them to reveal their definitions - a great way to expand your vocabulary.
Listening and Pronunciation: Accompanying audio of the reviews provides an excellent resource for improving listening skills and pronunciation.
Typically, I recommend reading one or two reviews in class and then assigning the remainder as homework. Encourage students to record their readings of the reviews, it's a fantastic way to work on pronunciation.
I hope you enjoy this week's activity. Check back next week for a fresh and exciting 'choose your own adventure' based on the Barbie movie.
Stay cool, John
