[a/w 1.1: map of the world with colourful labels over it of the countries below. As a
reference, see http://www.rgu.ac.uk/inyourcountry. TBD whether it is better to have the
map at the top or the bottom of the page- the issue is partly to do with conflicting with
the photos on the verso. Column split TBD. Vocab is longer now with items listed and
not in a box, but Writing/Speaking not any shorter, so we could either split the writing
after 5B (5C starts 2nd column), OR move Speaking to after Vocabulary, OR have first

READING
JFK International Airport
Arrivals
[P1.2.1: Five photos, four of which integrate the texts as captions with the photos.
Photos should look more authentically part of a magazine article than in OE. Think
newspaper magazine supplement, and link them better/more authentically so that they
work as a single article rather than four not obviously connected texts. Layout could
change from the OE (as we seem to be doing quite a lot of the across the top thing).
How about if the 3 photos on the recto are stacked in the 1st recto column, and not so
high (not landscape, but more square perhaps)? Then the grammar would just run down
the verso right-hand column. However, if this doesnt work because of the reading flow,
the current layout may well need to be retained in order to make a clearer flow from the
reading tasks to the grammar.]
Photo of each passenger should be against what look like backgrounds in an airport
terminal; many public spaces could substitute: Note, in each case we can change the
nationality if there is a better photo of someone who looks more appealing/interesting.
Some suggestions at the end of the document.
1: Photo of authentic sign for JFK International Airport; integrated or separately from
this is an authentic (US) Arrivals sign.
2 Wei Zhang is a young male computer engineer, casually dressed (20s);
3: Maria is a Latin American female (any age, from late20s to 40s)
4: Sonia is an Italian business student. (in 20s)
5: Jack is a young Australian actor (in his 20s);
Wei Zhang is a Chinese computer engineer. Im from Beijing but Im not here on business. Im here on
holiday. Its my first time in New York.
Maria Santas is from Brazil (or alternative Latin American country) Shes an English teacher. Shes in
New York for an International Teachers Conference. It isnt my first time in the US but its my first time
in New York. Im very happy to be here.
Sonia Conti is a student from Italy. Im a business student at the Columbia University. Is it a good
university? Yes, it is. Its very good for my English too.
Jack Brown is an actor from Sydney, Australia. Im a TV actor in Australia, but here in New York Im a
waiter in a restaurant. New Yorks a good city for actors.

3D The teacher may decide to customise the lesson, e.g. Which province in China do
you come from?
5A T could generate more items relevant to the teaching context.
Speaking - If students might have limited or not enough shared background
(geographical) knowledge for this task, you might precede it by eliciting from the whole
group a list of 8-10 countries that they know, and two cities in each country (on the
WB).
1.2
Vocabulary: the photobank photos provide extra vocabulary on jobs. Depending on the
level of the class, the teacher might want to use these before the practice activity or
leave them for self-study/homework/another lesson.
1.3
Functional phrases:
Additional idea: Get students to add the questions to their phrasebook. Check their
writing and spelling.
Additional idea: You could ask students to translate the questions in to their own
language and then translate them back.
1.4
1B In relevant teaching contexts, point out that adjectives are placed before nouns
in English.

neither of these show him casually dressed, but we think they'll do. We like the first as it
places this well in NYC).
