Use this clip when doing work about Wales or when discussing holidays. The clip is a starting point for discussion of questions such as: 鈥淧am mae pobl yn dod i Gymru ar wyliau?鈥 (鈥淲hy do people come to Wales on holiday?鈥) This clip could also be used when looking at the theme of special events. It is an opportunity to present work on adjectives. Ask pupils to think of adjectives that describe the feeling of being on the summit of Snowdon and then to create sentences containing those adjectives. This clip can be used as a stimulus for writing about a special event, using the past tense and focusing on how they felt. Students can be asked to prepare an individual presentation about a special event in their lives.
