T: Set the context of our destination: Imagine we are in the mountain ranges by the black sea. What are they called? I packed my things into a backpack to survive for 3 weeks, but I fell down a mountainside and lost all my food. What problem do I need to overcome? Ss: Response to the question (hopefully) T: Think about being in the mountains by the black sea. What problems would you have to overcome? Do you have any fear? e.g. heat, fear, food. Pair Work. Ss: Pair Work Response This warmer relates directly to the reading but I have changed it, slightly, to relate it more to the Turkish Culture. Perhaps they will be more engaged through the idea of the Black Sea mountain ranges rather than a jungle.
