Wish you were here!
Activity type: Pair reading and writing
Time: 20–25 minutes
Preparation:  Click here to download the activity sheets. Print them out. Photocopy one set of activity sheets for each student.
Procedure: Have students form pairs, and give each student one set of the activity sheets. Review the postcard with the class, answering any questions about meaning or structure. Tell the pairs to read the postcard and answer the questions. When everyone has answered the questions, tell students to begin the second part of the activity: choosing a vacation destination, imagining that they are there, and writing a postcard to a friend or family member. Encourage students to use Atsuko's postcard and the questions about it to write their own postcards. Also recommend that students use vocabulary from other units to describe weather and climate, free-time activities, money, and food and drink.
Option: Tell students to omit the name of the vacation destination they are writing about. Have each pair exchange postcards with another pair and guess where the postcard may have been sent.
