Ask students to work in groups of four. Envisage that you and your learners will take a tour around England following the steps provided to carrying out the talkative activity.
- Firstly, each of the individuals choose 2 destinations from the list below
- Secondly, join a partner, share your choices, and make list with the two final places.
- Thirdly, the groups utterly argue what places they selected, and choose one final last stop
- Finally, every cluster of people presents their top one to the rest of the class and justifies their answer.
