Airport is a
simulation that can be used by
students with a language competence
around level A1-A2 (European Language
Portfolio).
The simulation
can be played in groups with three
to five students (if less than five
in a group then some students will
have to have more than one profile
in the simulation).
When all
members of a group know the given
information the success of the group
in the simulation depends on
following the information and having
a proper strategy.
The students
should not be allowed to speak their
own language during the simulation.
To play the
simulation the students need 81 map
squares. Each square has a top side
with a number, the squares represent
parts of a land map. The students
can move across the map by choosing
squares, when a square is chosen the
students turn around the map square
to see the bottom side which has
information.
Before class
the teacher should print the file
with the map squares and cut out
these.
