We started the lesson yesterday with the idiom of the day: to have itchy feet. I'll publish a post with the explanation soon.
We focused the lesson on speaking and writing. First of all we checked the homework on page 24: vocabulary related to travelling. We saw which expressions go with travel, get and go on. Using this vocabulary students discussed in pairs the advantages and disadvantages of using guide books when travelling and with that information they must write a for and against composition. You can see a sample structure of a for and against composition here.
Then they discussed their experiences using guide books: the last time they used a guide book on a trip.
We finished the lesson I explained the difference between using present perfect simple and present perfect continuous.
Present perfect continuous: it's used to talk about activities that started in the past and continue in the present.
I've been studying English since 9 o'clock.
Present perfect simple: it's used to talk about states that started in the past and continue in the present.
I've had my car for more than ten years.
For homework students must do exercise 6 from page 25 and exercise 4 from page 26. And also write a composition about the advantages and disadvantages of using guide books.
