Fasten Seatbelts!

Fasten Seat Belts is a web created by the European Commission within the programme Life Long Learning aimed at helping travellers to learn the cultural norms of the places they plan to visit, either in Europe or in Asia. You can search for videos by country or by theme (table manners, bar customs, etc). It also offers a small explanation about the origin.


Self-study activity:
a) For Básico 1 and Básico 2 students.
Go over some of the videos and later on write down some of the norms you have read about. In doing so you will have to use the imperative.

b) For Intermedio 1 and Intermedio 2 students.
Go over some of the videos and rephrase the information using must (to express obligation) or mustn't (to express prohibition).
