CONCLUSION
• The unit is designed because of the need of our students to be able to
understand and make themselves understood in the situation of asking for
and giving directions. Our school is located on a tourist coast area, and
most visitors and foreign residents are English speaking. It is quite common
to find someone asking for a direction in English to find a supermarket, the
post office, a bank or a travel agency. For that reason we aim the
communicative skills to real situations, being communication in itself the
main target in our teaching-learning process.
• It is also due to students mobility, that they will soon find themselves in the
situation to get to an unknown place, do the shopping or talk about places
of interest in their own country or the country they are visiting.

SEE YOU SOON!
