Things to do in a city: planning a trip
When friends plan a trip, they make suggestions. We say: Let’s visit the fort. Should we ride bicycles? How about a boat trip? Why don’t we explore the souk? To say yes, we say: Good idea! or Yes, let’s. To say no politely, we say: Sorry, I can’t. or I’d rather visit the museum. We use on with days: on Monday, on Tuesday. Remember safety: wear a helmet when you ride, listen to the guide, and stay with a grown-up on every trip.

What should we do on Monday?
Let’s visit the old fort by the sea.
Good idea! And on Tuesday, how about riding bicycles along the Corniche?
Yes, let’s. We must wear helmets.
On Wednesday we can explore the souk and take photos.
Great! I’d rather go to the beach on Thursday.
This is our plan for Alexandria. On Monday we visit the fort and take photos of the sea. On Tuesday we ride bicycles with a guide, and we all wear helmets. On Wednesday we explore the souk with our parents. On Thursday we go to the beach, and on Friday we visit the museum. It is a wonderful plan!
Plan a week. Draw a table with Monday to Friday. The child and the grown-up take turns to suggest one activity for each day: Should we go to the museum on Monday? The other person answers and then both write the plan in the table.
