In Only in America, we introduced a new activity, ‘Imagine …’

In this activity, students have to imagine facts and details about characters in a video. These facts are ones which the video gives no information about whatsoever. They have been called "silly questions" because the first time you ask them, the students think you are pretty silly! The point is that we are all so used to watching film and TV that we happily imagine all sorts of details about characters on screen. You can do this with any video material. What follows is a photocopiable worksheet for Dennis Cook’s Trip. In fact, you can use it for any Dennis Cook story.
