Turn the image into an idea: After a short description, link the image to a theme and to a real culture where English is spoken.
Three links
1
Name the theme
"This relates to the theme of… because it shows…"
2
Give one real example
"A good example of this is… in…" A place, a festival or a campaign.
3
Widen the point
"More broadly, in the English-speaking world…" Then say what you think.
Theme → Example → Wider point
The five themes
- Identities
- Experiences
- Human ingenuity
- Social organization
- Sharing the planet
Be specific: "The Notting Hill Carnival in London" is worth far more than "some festival somewhere". One real example shows cultural knowledge.

Model: theme, example, wider point
The link, step by step
- Name the theme. "This relates to the theme of human ingenuity, because it shows young people using technology creatively."
- Give one real example. "A good example is CoderDojo, which started in Ireland. Volunteers run free coding clubs for young people."
- Widen the point. "More broadly, in the English-speaking world, communities want every young person to learn digital skills, not only those who can pay. In my view, that is fair."
Why it works
- The theme is named and justified with "because".
- The example is real: a named project in a named country.
- The last step widens the point and gives an opinion.
