Has anyone in your Learning Circle ever taken the wrong bus? This time, Samina takes a bus, but it is going the wrong way. We’ll look at some useful language for taking buses and trains, checking information and asking for advice.

Catching the bus

Samina catches a bus, but is it the right one? With your group, watch the video, discuss the questions and then try the activity.

Samina
Excuse me. I want to go to Westhall. Which bus do I take?

Woman
Westhall? I think you take the number 9.

Samina
Thank you.

Sign and announcement
The next stop is Hanford.

Samina
Hanford?

Discuss these questions with your group:

  • What should she do?
  • What should she say in English?
  • Has this ever happened to you? (When? Where? What happened?)
