Editor's Notes
- #2 Explainer: Today's exciting lesson is all about learning the names of some very famous places in two capital cities: Washington, D.C., and London. Imagine you're taking a virtual trip to both these cities! First, we'll listen and repeat the names of important landmarks like the White House, Buckingham Palace, and Big Ben. Then, we'll hear from Adam and Alexa, who will share cool facts about their capital cities—Washington, D.C., and London. For example, did you know the White House in D.C. has 132 rooms and London is home to almost 9 million people? As you follow along, you'll fill in the blanks to complete the sentences. This helps you pay extra attention and learn more effectively. We'll also practice vocabulary and writing by naming buildings from pictures and making sentences negative, which is like flipping a word to its 'opposite' form. Lastly, we’ll talk about what we’d do if we visited these capitals. For instance, if I visited London, I'd love to take a boat tour on the Thames River and visit the London Eye for some spectacular views. This lesson encourages curiosity and makes learning about these historic places interactive and fun. You can think of it like playing a game where you discover new places and facts, just like exploring a new level in your favorite video game!
