In today’s English class with Miss Maria D’Amicoli, students were introduced to the concepts of skimming and scanning while reading a description of a dangerous adventure. They explored unfamiliar words such as “daredevil,” “solo,” and “fatigue,” and discussed various adventurous sports depicted in images, including hot air ballooning, scuba diving, paragliding, mountain climbing, and white-water rafting. The lesson included a quiz to assess students’ adventurous traits based on personal experiences and preferences. Overall, the focus was on engaging with the theme of adventure and understanding related vocabulary.
