The teacher is
going to make a mental itinerary in the town (The town where students live).
We choose a start point (the main square, for example) and give directions
that the students have to follow mentally (go down the street, take the
second turning on the right, go straight on, etc) At last they have to
guess what is the place we come to (the place that the teacher intended to
go).
Of course, it
is neccesary that the students know well their own town. |
