2016-04-20 English 7C/Ilona Bergman   Create your own travel diary!

Choose one city in Europe where you want to go.  

Do research about interesting places to visit there. Also find out what you would like to do there! What sport possibilities are there?   Is there beautiful scenery? Wildlife? Organise your work, decide 2 or 3 places which you explore and tell us what you have done there / what you are going to do.  

Your travel diary should be for 3 days and you should also write how you travel: train, airplane, bus, on foot (trekking) or car.  Where are you staying? In a bed & breakfast, in a hotel or are you camping? 

You should do your own travel diary and present it to class. Use the internet for research or if you have brochures or books. You can use Wikipedia too of course. Another possibility is to find the official website of a city or town or community. There is usually a lot of information there.  

For instance: www.muenchen.de (Munich)   www.london.uk   www.montpellier.fr

www.wien.a ,  www.bern.ch 

Good luck!!!

Travel diary

Create your diary as a Power-point presentation OR a Word document. When you write your diary also explain why you have chosen this destination.

Remember to tell us how old your city is.

If you make a PP, remember:

: good-looking layout - it should look nice and appealing (tilltalande). Nice pictures

: little text : you can use "Notes" - anteckningar which people can't see when you present. Learn your text by heart.

: point and explain to the audience what it is that they see. For example: this is a picture of a bear family taken when we visited the zoo in X and here you can see.................

For both Word and PP:

: tell the audience what you are going to do / speak about

speak loudly and clearly and not too fast

: have eye-contact with your audience so that people feel you are speaking to them

: try to make your presentation funny and interesting

: good language! Show your teacher who will correct you before presentation time

: practise, practise, practise ALOUD. Especially words that you are unsure about. DON'T PRESENT IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED AND HAVEN'T PRACTISED!

: Never use language that you don't understand and can't explain

What you should aim at:

follow my instructions carefully

an interesting and fun presentation

good language

do a thorough (noggrann) research so you have enough facts
