9-17/18 2009 Travel Brianstorming!


Lesson:
Went over vocab
Talked about homework quality
Today is all about brainstorming to begin our own travel story.......How do you start?
Personal memories, pictures in magazines, objects, funny incidents, taboos
Historical Angle: Went over the history of travel.
If absent, I have a reading you can use to find out what you missed. See me before class next time.
Philosophical approach. you could ask these questions to start your story:
1. What is the difference between traveling and tourism?
2. What are the positive/ negative aspects of tourism?
3. List three ways travel has affected our world’s history?
4. Overall, do you believe that traveling is a positive or negative force in our society?

Showed Globe Trekker clips to spark ideas
Shared interesting customs and festivals from around the world to spark ideas
Do you have anything you could use for a travel story???

HMWK:
Vocab Day 3 and 4
Brainstorming sheet (at least 10 ideas for a travel story)

Projects: Assignment #2 Due 9/23 (Sheldon) and 9/24 (South)
