Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.
How are you doing?
This week, we continued Unit 3: How does social media change the way we travel? in Q Skills.
We started by thinking about our own dream destinations. Where would you like to travel, and why? You shared some interesting ideas, especially about places you would like to visit for their food!
Then we explored Talib's travel blog, which introduced five destinations around the world. We practiced identifying information, organizing it into categories, and thinking about which travel experiences appeal to us.
See you next week!

ELST Listening A2.2 #23
We practiced the listening questions individually, checked the conversation together, and reviewed important grammar and vocabulary before practicing the dialogue in pairs.
We also looked at expressions such as try + -ing and remember + -ing, paying attention to how their meanings work in context.
We discussed B&B (Bed and Breakfast), a type of accommodation that typically offers a room and breakfast, often in a smaller, more personal setting than a hotel.
Q Skills for Success Reading and Writing 1
Unit 3: How does social media change the way we travel?
PREVIEW THE READING — Quick Write
You chose three places you would like to visit and wrote one reason for each.
Some of you chose destinations because of the food you wanted to try, such as ramen in Hokkaido or Fukuoka and local dishes in Singapore.
This activity helped us connect the reading topic with our own interests before exploring the text.
Reading 1: Travel with Talib
We worked with Talib's travel blog, which introduced five destinations:
Serengeti National Park
Mexico City
Bali
Jeddah
Hong Kong SAR
We practiced several reading skills.
IDENTIFY — Who is this blog for?
We considered the intended audience of the blog.
CATEGORIZE — True or False / Complete the Table
We checked statements against the text and organized information about different destinations into a table.
An important point was to distinguish between what the text actually says and what we assume.
For example, just because Talib introduces a place does not necessarily mean he has personally visited it. We need to look for evidence in the text.
EVALUATE — What interests you?
We considered which travel experiences were most appealing to us and discussed our preferences with a partner.
Reading is not just about finding correct answers. It also gives us information we can use to make choices and express our own opinions.
