The decision they practise
In the main activity, “Rewrite the depot flood risk entry”, learners rewrite a realistic document line by line and see the effect of each choice. In “Celia and the budget”, a face-to-face conversation, learners practise what to say and do when the other person pushes back. The wrong options are things a well-meaning person might genuinely say, and the feedback explains why each one is tempting. Short animations show “Hollins Lane, from nuisance to crisis”; and “Two versions of the next flood”.
