Today's lesson

What is 'ecotourism', do you think?

In Unit 5

In Unit 5, we're covering South Africa. Africa is continent that is home to many different wild animals. Simply think about the 'Big Five'. People from all over the world visit South Africa and go on safaris to see the animals in the wild. However, there's a dark side to ecotourism (Going on a holiday to a country to observe wildlife). 

Glossary: requirements (benodigdheden), sustainable(duurzaam)

Listening question: Which example of 'bad ecotourism' is mentioned? 

Ecotourism

The test in the Test Week will cover all the words, grammar and expressions of Unit 5. 

*it might be useful to revise the 'irregular verbs' as well, since you need to use them when forming the second conditional: 

-If my house burnt down, I would be very upset. 

If the operation turns out to be a success, the doctor__________ me to go home.

1. will allow
2. allows

1. 1. quick 2. quick
2. 1. quickly 2. quickly
