Transcript:

Mrs. Hill: Good morning, everyone. I have some exciting news for you.
Next Monday a group of 8th-grade students from England is coming to Israel and they will
visit our school. The principal wants us to welcome them and invite them to our class.
<excited noises in the classroom "yes, great, wow">
So, we need to think about what we can do together.
Do you have any ideas? Yes, Amir?

Amir: Let's make a poster and hang it on the school gate.

We'll write <stressed> Welcome in big letters.

Maya: A poster is great. Then, in class, we can talk about our

countries, Israel and England.

Amir: And of course, we can talk about football. I can tell them all about Israeli football and they
can tell us all about football in England! I love football.

Mrs. Hill: <laughing> Yes, Amir, everyone knows you love playing
football. You can <stressed> all talk about your hobbies and see if you all enjoy the same
things.
After that, some of you can tell them about one of our school projects.

Rani: <excited> Yes! Let's tell them about the 'Clean the Beach' project.

Maya: We can show them photos of the beach before and after we cleaned it. Maybe they can tell
us about <stressed> their school project.

Mrs. Hill: I'm sure they would like that. After the English lesson we can have breakfast together. We
can make them an Israeli breakfast here in our classroom.
