Travel

The aim of the following documents is to teach students a particular topic on consumer education, namely travelling, in a comprehensible way while encountering the English language at the same time.

For this purpose, selected materials have been translated and adapted to a register that has an adequate language level (11th/12th grade) and is not too overwhelming.

However, on a case-by-case basis, students may bump into unfamiliar expressions or phrases in the texts. Specially prepared vocabulary lists have been added at the end of the respective materials to contribute to a deeper understanding of language and content. Overall, sentence structures, tenses, and vocabulary correspond to level B2, according to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR).

Nevertheless, it should be noted that some content may be perceived as challenging not in terms of language but in terms of content. In this case, it is the responsibility of the teacher to set appropriate didactic measures to support students in acquiring new information and skills.

The following materials are now available in English:
