Pre-teach essential vocabulary: Here are five words from the article along with suggestions on how to review them with students: 1- Enacting - Explain that "enacting" means putting something into action or making it official. Give examples such as enacting a law or enacting a policy.

Have them write a short paragraph explaining how they would go about enacting the rule and what consequences would be in place. 2- Rowdy - Define "rowdy" as noisy, rough, or disorderly. Discuss how the article mentions rowdy holidaymakers who consume alcohol before boarding the plane,then play an audio recording or video clip of a rowdy crowd or gathering.
