Plan an imaginary cruise, using maps, studying other languages, and drawing scenes from your trip.
1.
Identify exciting places your family or a school group, such as a language club, might visit on a boat or ship. Work together as a class, or in small groups, to plan an imaginary cruise. Plot the course of the trip on a map. Record the imaginary itinerary on a chart or calendar.
2.
Make a portrait of your group waiting to leave one port on the cruise, using Crayola® Oil Pastels on construction paper. Depict the foreground and background scenery realistically, and show clothing appropriate for the climate. Blend layers of color in the background with a small piece of paper towel.
3.
Describe the port scene and the feelings of each group member. Use vocabulary words that capture people's excitement and curiosity.
