TRANSFERENCE STAGE

In this stage, you will learn about how to describe objects and places. You will be presented with
situations related to elements and their appearance, how to use prepositions to describe a location,
and more. This unit aims to allow you to talk about different details that objects have, their shapes,
colors, sizes, etc. You will do this by using the prepositions of place and the elements of design.

Adding extra information about objects, or things is pretty handy in different situations. For
example, when you want to go shopping and you are looking for something quite specific. Or when
you want to describe where something is. What you will practice here will allow you to expand your
capabilities of communicating in a more complex level of English.

ACTIVITY

classmates to see your video in the forum. First you are going to introduce yourself. Second, you will
