A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Use the one-page A2 sheet with adults or teens. Learners can invent a day trip or hotel stay; no fixed-answer key is needed.
- Read the examples and order set off, check in, check out and get back in an imagined trip. Note that check-in also appears at airports.
- Ask and answer the eight questions, including transport around town and things seen on the way. Use reasons for museum preferences.
- Describe a short itinerary using have a look and take your time. Check that take your time means not hurrying, rather than measuring journey length.
Support and extension
Support with a timeline and travel pictures. Extend by comparing a relaxed trip with a hurried one; prior travel experience is not required.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
