This online tool gives pupils the experience of working with innovative AI programs, with features
built for kids: short responses, graded language, audio feature for reading text aloud, no
inappropriate content, and the option for observation of activity by the teacher.

Use the worksheet in Appendix V on page 356, or write questions on the board to help pupils use
the AI tool: 1. Where should I go on vacation? 2. I want to go to ___ . What can I see there? 3.
What can I eat there? 4. How can I get around?
Encourage more advanced pupils to ask their own questions.
Have pupils record some of the questions they asked as well as the responses they received to
create a plan for where they want to go, how they will travel there, what they want to see or do
there, what they want to eat there, etc. Pupils can print their chat conversation as a means of
doing this.
Then, have pupils share their vacation plans with the class. Have pupils use the vocabulary from
the unit to describe their trips.
