Once you have selected
one of the countries or cultures from the list below, you will form a partnership
in the Millennium Travel Agency. As partners, you will begin to research
the New Year traditions of your country to include (but you are not limited
to) the following:
-
Continent/Location
-
New Year Date
-
Origins
-
Traditions or Customs
-
Food
-
Clothing and Gifts
Working together, you will
plan an oral presentation for the rest of the class. As travel agents,
you will want to persuade as many customers as possible to visit your country
for its New Year's celebration. (Remember, several countries may
celebrate the New Year at the same time.) During your presentation,
you may want to include music, costumes, literature or stories,
language phrases or vocabulary, related crafts or activities, charts or
displays, multimedia products, decorations, and/or traditional foods and
recipes.
