Asking For and Giving Railway Directions worksheet
This is an information gap activity. (Step1) Half of the class gets the Tokyo Tower worksheet and the other half gets the Asakusa Shrine worksheet. (Step2) Drill the asking for and giving of train-subway directions to various destinations dialog patterns. (Step3) Everybody walks around to find a classmate with the other worksheet and asks her for directions to one of the four sightseeing destinations. Students write where the sight is the blank space provided on their railway map. (Step4) Students fill in the chart with the classmate’s (direction giver) name and a rating from 1 to 5 for how well and clearly the classmate gave the directions. 5 is the highest rating. (Step5) Steps 3 and 4 are repeated with a different classmate until the students have found where all four destinations are on the railway map. (Note) Encourage students to refer to the dialog patterns less and less. (Review) Once everybody is done and sitting down, choose pairs of students to stand up and demonstrate asking for and giving directions to each of the eight Tokyo tourist spots.
