English Adventures 1.1
Welcome!
I ESL
English Adventures is a themed set of lessons which explore interesting and useful content which might appear in existing class content outside of english learning! The classes will introduce students to not only new english content but develop an interest in other subject area. You can expect to find physical hands-on activities, small discussion prompts and opportunities to learn new vocabulary. Try to build upon the words with simple sentences and try to take each opportunity to ask the student to engage with the slides. English adventures are designed to be taken to both a 1-on-1 private class as well as to the classroom in groups so we hope you enjoy the content.

Dear Teacher,
In our lesson today, we will explore different types of bridges. We will learn about beam bridges, which are simple and strong, arch bridges that have a curved shape, and suspension bridges that can span long distances. By understanding these different types, we can appreciate the various designs that engineers use to build bridges. Remember, bridges are not only practical but also fascinating examples of human ingenuity. So, let's get ready to discover more about bridges and their importance in our lives!
Let's begin!
Bridge
(Noun)
Cross
(Verb)

Question Time!
What is a bridge?
- A bridge can help us cross from one place to another.
- Bridges cross water, mountains and even jungles!
- Bridges are made of different materials and are found all over the world!
What bridges have you seen before?
Arched bridge
- The semi-circle shape helps the bridge stay strong and hold really heavy things!
- An Arched bridge uses a shape like a half-circle to support the bridge on both sides.
Semi Circle Arch
Suspension bridge
- Suspension bridges are interesting because they can go over long distances without needing lots of supports in the middle!
- Suspension bridges are special because they have tall towers that keep the cables high up in the air!
Strong Cables
Beam bridge
- Beam bridges are commonly used for short distances and are quick to build, making them a convenient choice for small gaps
- Beam bridges are basic and strong, like a long stick that helps us cross over small rivers or streams.

Beam
Drag the correct picture
This is a ____ bridge.
Which bridge do we need?
Arched bridges are used when we have to cross a small place with things like fast water or strong winds that can be dangerous.
Suspension bridges are used to cross very long distances. They have long cables hanging from tall towers or pillars to hold the bridge up.
Beam bridges are chosen for areas where there aren't many people crossing at once. They are less expensive and faster to build than other bridges.
I want to cross this small river, but I don't have much money. Which bridge should I use?
