🪧 Horizon: Signposting & Transitions
Coach Deniz gives the same chocolate talk twice: once without a single signpost, once fully signed — and not one fact changes. The crew builds the signpost bank by function (opening, moving on, referring back, escaping a digression, summing up), learns the compressed grammar inside transitions — participle clauses, sentence-linking which, let’s + base verb — survives a controlled digression, and relays a team talk where every border between ideas carries a sign.
Lesson Plan
- The moment you got lost
- City signs vs talk signs
- Goodbye topic, hello topic
- Why listeners lose the thread faster than readers
Key Vocabulary
Grammar Points
- Participle-clause transitions: Moving on to + noun; Having + past participle shows the previous point is complete
- Sentence-linking which refers to the whole previous clause: prices keep rising, which brings me to my second point
- let’s + base verb moves the audience with you: let’s turn to the second cause
- to sum up / to recap as infinitive-of-purpose discourse markers; in conclusion as the more formal option
