Introduction

The subject of this double period is back to school.

Make groups of three or four.
Discuss these questions in English with your group:
- How did you feel on your first day at secondary school?
- What did you already know about your new school?
- Who did you already know there?
Together, make a mindmap with 15-20 words that have to do with the first day of secondary school. Use four topics for the ‘arms’. One of them should be ‘emotions’.
