Hi Andrea,
Thank you for your comments! I had a look at the resources, and I actually uploaded the wrong worksheet to go with the lesson. Apologies for this – a mistake on my part. This means that there is actually no YouTube video required. I have now uploaded the correct worksheet for use with the lesson. Re: the key terms bingo/dominoes – the key terms for this activity are on the last slide of the powerpoint. You can then use these key terms for a bingo game with the students, or cut them out and create a match-up dominoes exercise for the students to do!
