Weblink Mini-Projects

Mini-project 1:     http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinations  
Ask students to choose a country they would like to visit. They could make notes under these headings:

• When is the best time to go?
• Are there any interesting events and festivals?
• How much does eating out cost?
• What three places would you most like to visit in this country?
• What is the best way of getting round the country?

Mini-project 2:    http://www.london-hotels.co.uk/ 
Tell students that they are going to stay in London. They need to find a hotel from this website. Ask them to decide when they want to travel, and then find a hotel they like for: 

• less than Ł100 a night
• more than Ł00 a night

Students could feed back in class and compare their hotels: 

• Where are they?
• How much do they cost?
• What facilities do they have? 

Mini-project 3:    http://www.myvue.com/   
First ask students to choose a cinema (it doesn't matter where they choose). Then they look at the list of films and choose the one they would most (or least) like to see. You could also ask them to find out this information:

• How long is the film? (running time)
• Who is the director?
• Who is in it? (the cast)
• Is it a good film? (each film has a short review)
• What time is the film on?
