Artistic Maps . After having made plots of other communities on graph paper, ask your students to draw or paint or use the computer to make colorful, artistic representations of these locations. Obtain a typical tourist map for one or more of the communities, and have the students identify on these maps the locations they have mapped using the data sent to them by their colleagues. Virtual Visit . Have the students consider what a typical day might be like at one of their colleagues' cities.
Many cities now have web sites.
These can be visited. Some students may be very interested in continuing a correspondence via e-mail with one or more students from the schools in other countries. This activity could be encouraged. It might include some compositions or essays the students have written, if they have performed any of the activities above, and copies of the log sheets.
