Lesson 7A "Life at the end of the world"

In this lesson, Sts focus on word order in questions. The context for presenting the grammar is an interview with a woman who works for the Department of Tourist Information in the town of Ushuaia in the south of Argentina. Ushuaia is very close to Antarctica. She talks about what it is like to live in a town that has 19 hours daylight in the summer but is dark most of the day in winter. In Vocabulary, Sts learn some more common verbs, and the pronunciation focus is on three more vowel sounds, /ɛr/, /ɑ/, and /aʊ/, and the /y/ sound. The lesson builds up to a speaking activity where Sts use the grammar and vocabulary to talk about what they do in their free time.
