Advisory Exhibitions 11/18/2009

Part 1 – Skits. Students will create a skit in which they portray Japanese tourists visiting the tourist destinations they will represent in part II. Skits should be in Japanese and English and every advisory must include all members of the group.

Part II – Tour of States

  1. Tourist destinations - Students will visually represent (tri-board, poster, model, diorama etc.) at least three major tourist destinations in their state. Advisory leaders must approve all attraction choices.
  2. Road Trip! - Each classroom will geographically represent the United States ie Honshu as the Northwest, Kyushu as the Southwest, Hokkaido as the Southeast and Shikoku as the Midwest and Setonaikai as the Northeast. Nihonkai will represent the center of the United States. On each advisory door will be a list of mileage from the center of the United States to each individual state. Students will be required to keep a mileage booklet of their trip as they “tour” five states (one from each region). Younger students will be in charge of keeping track of the milage while older students will be in charge of doing the calculations (by using, for example, Pythagorean theorem). Each advisory will be assigned a different vehicle, then calculate the cost of using that vehicle to a Japanese tourist by converting miles to kilometers, gallons to liters and dollars to yen.
