Exercise 6a Listen to some children talking about their plans for Environment Day next Saturday. Match each name with an activity.
Helen and Nick
Nick and I are going to clean our local pond. We aren’t going to use a boat. It’s only a small pond.
Nick is going to make a sign ‘Keep This Pond Clean’ and put it next to the pond. And I’m going to take some photos.
David
I’m going to plant trees. Save A Tree, a special green organization, is going to give us the trees.
My mother is going to take the trees in her van. And I’m going to water the trees every day for a week.
Ann and Tina
Tina and I are going to go to the bird reserve. There are some injured wild birds there. Some of them have a broken wing and they can’t fly.
We are going to look after them. We are going to feed them. We are going to give them seeds and water to eat. And maybe some worms.
Kevin
I’m going to visit the Environment Day Festival. A lot of interesting things are going to go on there. I’m going to sell promotional material such as T-shirts, stickers, bookmarks and badges with green slogans.
We are going to make shoe box bird houses that you can set up on your balcony, and we are also going to make bags out of old newspapers. In the end, we are going to go on a bicycle parade for the environment. We are going to decorate our bikes with signs that promote bike riding.
