Have you ever heard of The Great Red Demon? Legend has it that if you touch his left ear you will receive good luck. At least, that’s what LanguageLab’s local residents say.
Today’s lesson was all about sightseeing. We took a bus tour along a winding coastal road and stopped at six places of historical interest along the way. I gave a short spiel about each place as we passed it and once we reached our final destination I handed out a brochure so that the tourists (whoops, I mean students) could read and learn more about the places we visited. Then I gave them a quiz to make sure they’d been listening!
After the quiz we had a treasure hunt to complete. I gave Goemon some directions on a note card and it was his job to tell the other students where to look for the ‘treasures’. We found all kinds of things from spears to ‘mouse masks’ hidden around the place and when we had found them all we reconvened at the alien temple. The last part of the lesson was an opportunity to practice making suggestions. The students pretended they were archaeologists and tried to decide what the objects they found were used for. Some of the explanations were hilarious. |
