Ireland Travel Guide

Ireland Information

","worksheets","multimedia","steps","

Ask students whether they have ever used a travel guide or a travel book while traveling with family. Then, have them share different reasons people might use travel guides while on vacation.
Ask students to brainstorm important categories of information that should go into a travel guide. Create a list on the board as students share their ideas. (Possible responses: sights to see, geography, accommodations, restaurants, transportation, recreational activities, historical information, cultural information.)
Tell students that some travel guides are written for a particular audience (school groups, couples, families, singles, senior citizens, recent graduates).
Display a world map or a map of Europe. Invite a volunteer to point out Ireland.
Divide students into small groups and tell them they will work together to create a travel guide for Ireland.
Tell them to begin by picking an audience and the categories of information they want to include in their guide.
Have them assign each person in their group a category to research for their travel guide.
Display the web links on the board, or send the list electronically to students (see the Preparation section). Then, tell students to choose one of the sources to begin their research.
(Optional) Share the travel guides and reference materials with the students.
When they have finished their research, have them design and create a short travel guide for their desired audience. Encourage them to include illustrations and maps along with the text that describes the country.
Reconvene the whole group and have each group share their guide without revealing the intended audience. Then, after each presentation, ask the audience to guess the intended audience.
Close the activity with a discussion. Ask:
- Which travel guide would you want to use? Why?
- What was the most interesting thing you learned about Ireland?
- What else would you like to learn about Ireland?

","examples","versions","variations","

Give students access to the computer where they can create an electronic version of their travel guide.
