🎯Learning goal: Practice speaking by discussing seating preferences in an airplane cabin with famous people.
💭 Think alone
- Look at the picture of the airplane cabin.
- Notice the famous people sitting in different seats and the empty seats available.
- Choose a seat you would like to sit in.
- Write your ideas on a piece of paper/ in the chat explain:
- Which seat you chose.
- Why you chose that seat.
- Which famous person you would like to sit next to and why.

Example: I chose to sit in seat 1B, which is next to Kate Middleton. I chose this seat because I admire her elegance and her work with various charities. I would love to talk to her about her experiences as a member of the royal family and her efforts in supporting mental health and children’s causes.
