Why not celebrate youth having a voice and making demands with this lesson to mark the occasion? This works well with teens and adults at B1 level and above.

Learners will:

  • make predictions about a picture of young people on strike
  • read a set of demands created by young people about action on the climate emergency
  • create their own set of demands on a topic of importance to themselves
