At a small resort in the Galápagos Islands, everything seems perfect – until Wendy arrives. She climbs out of the sea, takes a dip in the pool and heads straight for her favourite sun lounger. Unfortunately, there is already a guest sitting on it. The moment was captured on video and shared widely on Instagram and TikTok.
In this lesson, students listen to the story and imagine the scene before sketching it for themselves. They then follow Wendy’s determined journey from sea to sun lounger, retelling it step by step with the help of key prepositional phrases.
It is a playful story that gives students plenty of practice with language for movement and place – and plenty to talk about afterwards.
