Sara Forbes Bonetta was a very special and
very interesting woman who helped to alter certain prejudices during the time
she lived. But who was she? Where did she live? What did she achieve? Do your
research, make notes and write her story along with your comments. Imagine you
are a journalist and are doing a piece for the Sunday supplement. The purpose of
this activity is to introduce you to the concept of reading and listening into
writing early on. While working on the task, you will have the opportunity to
revise the past tenses and narrative structures, practice your reading and
annotating skills as well as watch and listen to an original video as listening
practice.
