Lesson 8
Project 6
| To practise the language in a cooperative and non-stressful atmosphere |
| Your task is ... To make a tourist brochure about a place Ibn Battuta visited, and tell the class about it. |
|
This is Malaga today. Six hundred years ago, when Ibn Battuta visited it, he said: “Malaga is smaller than Granada. But it is one of the largest and most beautiful towns of Andalusia.” |
|
This is the Alcazaba. Badis, ruler of Malaga, built it in 1057 CE. This fortress is one of the largest Muslim military buildings in Spain. Don’t miss the view over the town and the port |
|
Finally, visit the Roman Theatre. It is right next to the Alcazaba. |
• To prepare for this project, you have to do some individual research about a place Ibn Battuta visited. you have to identify the purpose of the brochure and the audience.
collect examples of tourist brochures from museums, hotels, a tourist information office, or look for examples on the Internet or in newspapers and magazines.
