Reading for teenagers about a summer holiday

The following reading is for a teenage group, aged 13-16 but I believe it could be used for any ages upwards. The class is currently preparing for a B1 exam. (This is a lower intermediate level.)

Snake and music

You know that game I think we all played around campfires when you have to give a word that starts with the last letter of the word from the previos person? Apparently it’s called The Snake Game.

Rhymes

Most songs cone with a rhyme so it was a no brainer really but it was fascinating to see the difference between two groups on the same level.

Introduce your favourite song #atozchallenge

What kind of (English language) songs do you think Spanish teenagers like?

Express your opinion #atozchallenge

I love it when music talks for me but I also love just talking about music. (Dah!) It’s one of those universal areas where (almost) everyone has an opinion. How they express it, is a different matter.

Uphill on rollerskates

That’s how teaching feels some (most) days.

Mutual agreement

I try to finish the classes on a high note so I usually do some fun activity, a game or a competition before the kids leave the class.

One of the regular activities with the 13-year-olds is the “Category” game.
