The best part of many trips is sightseeing so you can get your students interested in other countries by using some of the 100 available worksheets in this section. The majority of worksheets posted on this page are simple introductions to tourist attractions in different cities and countries. This worksheet for elementary students is about London. It is a simple exercise where students match the names of places with images. There is no answer key provided so you may need to do some research if you are not familiar with the buildings. If you are more interested in Russia, this PowerPoint presentation would be a great way to introduce intermediate students to some major attractions in St. Petersburg. You can create a related worksheet for students to complete before, during, or after the presentation. Take a look at the rest of the section for more options. If you do not find exactly what you are looking for, perhaps you will find the inspiration to create a unique worksheet of your own. There is certainly a lot of variety in the material posted on Busy Teacher.
