Yesterday we started a new unit. In this unit we learn how to talk about cities, towns, villages and also tourist resorts.

Madrid, London, New York and Paris are cities.

Leganes  is a town.

Most of the students go a to a village in the summer, usually their grandparents' village, which may be in Avila, Toledo, Guadalajara, Madrid, Caceres, etc.


Some adjectives we studies to talk about cities, towns or villages:

Beautiful, friendly, modern, old, historic, crowded, quiet, industrial, seaside.

We also talked about streets and said they could be wide, like Gran Via, or narrow, like San Jeronimo (near Puerta del Sol).

Other words we studied are: buildings, skyscrapers, lake. 

Students were given a photograph of a city, town or village and they had to find the information about it. Example: one students got a picture of Tokyo and then found some information about it:

Very crowded.
Many lights.
Many modern buildings.

Another students got a picture of San Sebastian, in the North of Spain. Then, he/ she gathered the following information:

On the seaside.
Beautiful and elegant buildings.
Tourist town.
