New project: Piktochart Countries in the World using 2nd Conditional

Good morning students,

After playing the games at eslgames.com, you will start working with your partner on a new project to practice the second conditional some more, and also to learn about different cities around the world.

Step 1. Think of places you want to visit in the world (places not in Colombia).

Step 2. Choose 3 different cities from around the world. Choose anywhere in North America, South America (but not in Colombia, we have already study Colombian cities in depth), Europe, Asia, Africa, and/or Australia with South Pacific Islands.



Step 3. Make a piktochart, saying what you would eat, drink, visit, and generally do if you went to these cities. Use the second conditional sentences and one photo for each of your cities.

For example, "If I went to Los Angeles, I would go to Disneyland, Knotsberry Farm, and Six Flags amusement parks.If I got the chance, I would surf at Huntington Beach. After that I would visit the Hollywood hills and try to meet Celebrities."

That is just one example for one of the cities. You need at least three different cities.

Step 4. Send your piktochart to me ---->  larisaspeers@gmail.com

 Have fun!
