This material is designed to develop students’ reading, grammar, and writing skills through the topic “My Favourite City.” It is based on a short, engaging text about Amsterdam, which helps learners expand their vocabulary related to cities, travel, and places.
The tasks are structured progressively and include:
a True/False activity to check general understanding;
multiple-choice questions for detailed comprehension;
a grammar task focused on there is/there are, has got, like/don’t like;
a creative writing task where students describe their favourite city.
Skills developed:
reading for gist and detail;
vocabulary development (cities, places, travel);
basic grammar usage in context;
writing and expressing personal opinions.
Key features:
clear and logical structure (from controlled to freer practice);
supportive phrases for weaker students;
suitable for classroom use, homework, or independent practice;
easily integrated into topics such as “Travelling,” “Cities,” or “My Favourite Place.”
Learning outcomes:
By the end of the lesson, students will be able to:
understand short texts about cities;
describe a city using basic grammatical structures;
express likes and dislikes;
write a short paragraph (18–20 sentences) about their favourite city.
