Original Prompt

Create a 45 Minute lesson "Postcard from Wales" for the seventh grade in English in Germany. It should be differentiated and scaffolded. It should be a "map" that goes through the lesson, needing cooperative work and has a postcard as writing product at the end.

This resource introduces learners to Wales, exploring its geography, culture, and symbols. It features activities such as observing the map of Wales and describing its shape, learning key vocabulary related to the country, and identifying important landmarks like Caerphilly Castle and Snowdon. The resource includes a section about the Welsh language and common symbols, such as the red dragon on the national flag. Additionally, students engage in a creative writing task by composing a postcard, enhancing both their writing skills and understanding of Welsh culture. The inclusion of a self-check rubric and peer feedback encourages collaborative learning.
