A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Use the two model conversations and key-phrase lists on the single learner page; the final prompts are open-ended and need no fixed answer key.

  1. List group size, pace, book and speaking practice in the language-class comparison.
  2. Read the accommodation model and include breakfast, lift access, room size and cost.
  3. Create a prompt exchange with two key phrases and explain which difference changes the choice.

Support and extension

Supply both/similar to/different from frames. Extend by adding one accessibility requirement rather than selecting on price alone.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
