Level:
Intermediate / Upper Intermediate
In this lesson, learners read about the different countries of the UK, either
online as a webquest or in paper form. They practise reading for
specific information, and guessing the meaning of words from the context, both
important reading micro-skills. There is an optional extension in the form of a
role-play, in which groups of learners compete to persuade a professional couple
to move to 'their' UK country.
To get your students to do the exercises online you'll need to send them to:
