Beginner Conversation: Environment and Natural Disasters

WARM UP

Let’s read the dialogue. I will be Sam and you will be Alice. After reading it once, we’ll switch roles.

READ

Are your things ready? Our parents asked me to check on you before we leave.
I’m almost finished. I just feel sad because there is another storm coming into our area.

I feel sad too, but don’t worry. We are going to stay at our grandmother’s house where we will be safe from the storm.
Thank you, Sam. I pray that our neighbors will be safe, too. I heard in the news that this storm is stronger than the first one.

I hope so, too. Let’s go. Our parents are waiting, and so is our grandmother.
Sure. I will just get my flashlight and wear my boots.
