- LEISURE & TRANSPORT -
HOORAY FOR HOLIDAYS
You have been given 100 dollars / 50 pounds and 800 km / 500 miles free travel starting from your classroom. You may fly, sail, drive, walk, bike or whatever! - but you cannot go any further than the set distance on regular, already existing, travel routes.
Where will you go and why?
Remember that this is a holiday so getting somewhere should be as much fun as being there if at all possible.
What different types of transport could you use to reach your destination and what sort of things will you see during the trip?
What is the big attraction at your destination? What sort of things will you do on your holiday?
Compare your destinations with your paired school.
How would your holiday destinations alter if you could only travel in January or only in August?
Describe a typical UK holiday/ NZ holiday.
Now if you had to pay for the transport you planned to use, how much would it cost?
