Work with a partner. Divide the items in the list into these categories. On your way Before you start How do you get to school? Do you follow the same route every day? What do you see on your way to school? Compare with another pair. Work as a group. Add more items to each category. Swap lists with other groups.

Look at these vocabulary notes on the topic of ‘transport’. Getting from A to B Reading Read this diary entry about a journey. buy/book/get/ a ticket buy/get petrol-fill up rail-road-highway by car go quickly-take your time from…to… set off-arrive/get there stop off-take a break a gas station-highway services look on the way We set off from the coastal town of Amble, where Grandma lives, at The kids sat at the back. We filled up at the gas station just outside Amble. It was rush hour so we took our time and arrived on the outskirts of Newcastle at 10.15, stopping off on the way for a snack at the Snowy Owl Hotel north of the city. We took the A69 across to the west so we could avoid the city center traffic. From there we took the M6 highway down to Lancaster. Lovely views of snow on the Lake District mountains. We took a break at Tebay Highway Services so we could use the toilets. It’s only 30 minutes from there to Lancaster, so we got there at just after Not bad. We all had an early dinner. Decide which of the words and phrases were NOT used in the text. Decide on the order the places were mentioned. Make notes about a journey you’ve been on. Use your notes and tell a partner about your journey.

Look at these photos. What problems might a traveler have with the things or situations in each? Travel problems Reading bring sun cream forget a phone take photos pack your bags book a flight get a taxi board a plane go sightseeing I had to book my flight the night before I travelled, leaving little time to pack my bags properly. I had to get up early to get the taxi to the airport. When I finally got to Liverpool Airport I remembered I’d forgotten to bring my sun cream. I hadn’t forgotten my phone though, so I’d be able to take some photos in sunny Florida. I was looking forward to going sightseeing in the beautiful Sunshine State. Decide on the order the phrases in the box appear in this text. So, I got up at 5 in the morning. The taxi was waiting outside the house. I’d booked it the night before. When I got to the airport I checked in and went through security with no problems at all. But after that I had to queue for a while at the passport control. The plane took off on time and I actually arrived in Miami an hour early. I then waited in baggage reclaim… and waited. Finally, after everyone else had gone an air-steward came and asked me if I was OK. My bag had fallen off the belt! The air-steward found it an hour later. In the end I had to rush to catch a bus to my hotel. What were the problems? Read the next part of the text. When After that In the end Finally Then Work with a partner. Put these words in the order they appear in the text. Look at your notes about your journey again. Tell your partner about your journey. Use the words in the box.

Speaking Amazing journeys What are some differences in meaning between these words? a trip travel a journey a tour Match each one to a definition. Going from one place to another, especially in a vehicle. A visit to a place or area, especially one during which you look around a place to learn about it’s history and culture. To go to another place which is far away and/or for a longer period of time. Going to a place which takes a short time to get there, or is a relatively short distance away. Discuss these questions as a class. Why do people travel long distances? Why would you travel to other countries? What kind of vacation destinations do you prefer visiting? What are some problems with international travel? Think of the most amazing place you’ve been to in your life. Make notes on your answer to these questions. Why did you go there? When did you go? Who were you with? How did you get there? What were the highlights? Were there any problems? Why you would recommend the place to others? Why? Tell the class about your place. Decide on the top three destinations the people in your class would like to visit.
