You should check the photos and read the description of each photo.

3.- Finally, here you have a youtube link with a man speaking with Scottish accent.



 He talks about Scotland and Scottish history, and he also speaks some Scots words. If you want to see the transcript of his speech you should go to the options bar down the main window, where you can find the "like","dislike","About","Share","Add to" ... and you have to press this bottom 





You should listen to this Scottish man, reading the transcript at the same time.

EXERCISES
In order to know what are your preferences for this trip, I want you to do the following exercises:

        a) Write a coment on the map, describing how would you organise this trip in three days (April the 20th, 21st and 22nd) Bear in mind that it is not necessary to include all the places, you can do without one or two places.(100 words)

        b) Write a comment on the album from Scotland, telling additional things that you would like to do or see in Scotland and that are not shown in the map nor in the photo album (60 words)

        c) Write a comment on the youtube video explaining your impressions and thoughts about Scottish accent and Scots language. Is it too difficult to understand? what are the most difficult words? what do you think of the video? (60 words)
