FAIRY TALES, ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR AND PANTOMIMES

Hallo ESOL learners!

I hope that you are well today and looking forward to refining your English skills.

Today, we have a variety of topics:

• Fairy tales
• Anti-social behaviour and ASBOs
• Pantomimes

Your project for today is to do some research about one of these topics and writing something:

1. You could write your own fairy tale or translate a fairy tale from your country.
2. You could do research on anti-social behaviour in Britain and ASBOs and write a letter to your friend explaining what anti-social behaviour is, how Britain uses ASBOs and what your opinion is about it.
3. You could research pantomimes and write a short report about the history of pantomimes in Britain.

Here are some useful links:

Until next time, have fun learning English!
