Bridge to Success is a course for learners of English as a second language (ESL)
Bridge to Success Grade 9 consists of nine thematic units of study, which include a range of activities, text types and objectives, split over three terms
The materials reflect the following principles
An Emirati focus, with an international
perspective. Specifically developed for young learners throughout the United Arab Emirates, the themes, situations and literature covered by Bridge to Success strive to reflect the Emirati context and encourage learners' curiosity about the wider world. This fosters respect and interest in other cultures and leads to awareness of global citizenship
An enquiry - based, language - rich approach to learning. Bridge to Success engages children as active, creative learners. As learners participate in a wide variety of curriculum-based activities, they simultaneously acquire content knowledge, develop critical thinking skills and practise English language and literacy. The materials incorporate a 'learning to learn' approach, helping children acquire skills and strategies that will help them approach new learning situations with confidence
English for educational success. To meet the challenges of the future, children need
to develop facility with both conversational and academic English. From the earliest stage, Bridge to Success addresses both these competencies. Bridge to Success presents authentic listening and reading texts, writing tasks, and end- of- unit projects similar to those learners might encounter in English - medium and international schools
In addition to this Coursebook, the accompanying Workbook provides additional support, reinforcement and practice. Comprehensive support for teachers is provided in the Teacher's Guide

The Dubai Metro
The Dubai Metro system is one of the most advanced metro systems in the world. It opened in 2009. In February 2012, it held the world record as the longest driverless metro network in the world, at 74.69 km. It can carry over 1.2 million passengers a day. There are two lines, the Red line and the Green line, and 47 stations. Nine of these are underground
The system uses the latest technology. It has an automatic system to control where each of the 87 trains are, so there are no drivers. Passengers can pay for the Metro using smart cards. All stations are air -conditioned, with doors at the platform edge
There is a lot of congestion in the urban areas in Dubai. If people use the Metro to get to work, there will be fewer cars on the road. It allows residents and visitors to get to different parts of this exciting city much more quickly and easily than before

I've used this website lots of times and I think it's very good. It's a really cool website for designer clothes. I buy a lot of clothes and shoes here and it's great for buying presents. I've bought a watch for my dad and sunglasses for my mum from here too. The website is easy to use, but sometimes it can be really slow. Your shopping cart adds up the prices. When you get to the checkout, it's easy to pay. I always use this site
Interviewer: Hi Faisal. Thank you for agreeing to talk to us today. I'm extremely interested to find out about drones and how you use them in your films
Faisal: Well, it's quite new for me. I started to use drones last year. There were some aerial shots I wanted to take of an avalanche in the mountains, but it was really dangerous, and using a helicopter or small plane to film was so expensive. So, a good friend suggested I use a drone. A drone is so useful. The drone I use is very small and light and fits into my rucksack. It can also get to places that we can't get to. It's really amazing technology and perfect for filming in the mountains
Interviewer: What other situations do you use them for
Faisal : When we are filming, they help us watch the weather. If the drone sends us pictures of bad weather, we stop filming tead again
