English in use - webpages

Sometimes webpages can be tricky to read depending on for example difficult words, layout or images and graphs. Your task today is to look at this webpage and answer a few questions.

- Find out which country that emits most carbon dioxid - Canada or Finland?
- Find out how many people there will be in Sweden 2020 in the ages 40-45?
- How many countries in Asia have the colour green in their flag?

During the time you figure this out I want you to make a list of words that you encountered.

Extra:
- Find information about how to apply for a visa in Australia. Describe this process shortly in english.
- Do some of the quizzes that you can find on your right on the page when you are at top stats.

Everyone in the group will help out with ALL the letters. The wallposter should be made on the paper format A3 and contain following thing:

- Your letter. It needs to be big so that everyone can see it from a distance. Use any color you like.

- Your word. It doesn´t need to be as big as the letter.

- Small text parts that explain the word that your letter stands for. Use the information we wrote on the alphabet as a base and find more information if you need to.

- Images/drawings of your choice that enhances your wall poster.


When you are done with the wallposter you are going to prepare an oral presentation of your letters. Everyone in the group needs to say something. You might need to split the letters between you if you are 4 in your group.
