The decision they practise
In the main activity, “Find the five warning signs”, learners spot the red flags in a realistic document and see the effect of each choice. In “Can you cover Wednesday?”, 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 “When pressure tips over” and “Two versions of Ruth’s month”.
