- 1. A TRIP TO LONDON So, you want to travel to London, do you? And you think it is easy, do you? Well, prove it!
- 2. Task 1: • You have to organise a trip to London for the whole class. • -You have to decide on a date for your trip. Learn about the weather in London and choose the most convenient time of the year. Perhaps you want to know when there are famous celebrations in London. Remember, you have to convince the class that your choices are the best! • -You also have to decide how long the trip is going to be. Less than 3 days is too short, more than 7 is too expensive! • -There are 5 airports in London ( Gatwick, Luton, Heathrow, London City and Stansted). You have to decide which airport is the cheapest or the most convenient. Don't forget the option that your team has chosen!
- 4. Task 2: You have to coordinate with the person doing task 1, or two of you can do tasks 1 and 2. You have to find out about flight timetables, and ticket prices to and from the Spanish airport to the airport that your teammate has chosen. You also have to decide about transportation from your town to the Spanish airport, and viceversa. Don't forget the option that you have chosen, and keep in mind the cost of each journey by bus, train and plane until you are in London.
- 6. Task 3: • · You have to coordinate with the person or people doing task 2, or two of you can do tasks 2 and 3, or three of you can do tasks 1, 2 and 3. • · Decide which kind of accommodation you want (hotel, bed and breakfast, or youth hostel). Find out if you can book in advance enough rooms for everybody, how much they cost and what they include. • · Find out when your plane arrives in London, and how to get to the place where you want to stay. Find out about public transport (bus, train, underground) to get to your hotel or hostel. • · Think also about the return flight, what time you need to get to the airport, and how you can get there.
