My objectives were that the students worked independently investigating areas of their own personal interest within groups. Instead of the classic 'written work' project, we decided that a digital guide would be easier to travel with.

Initially we discovered famous landmarks through our map searches and through viewing London tourism videos. Later students decided on what landmarks and aspects of the city they wanted to include in their guide and in groups set out to make mini-guides for out web page.

The 'London Corner' was set up in every class with authentic materials and souvenirs donated from friends, family and teachers.
