This sociodrama activity helps learners handle realistic travel situations in English. Students practice making plans, asking for help, solving transport problems, comparing options, and negotiating decisions when time, money, and travel priorities are different.
SSENARIY
A group of travelers is trying to reach a conference in another city. However, their journey becomes complicated when one part of the trip is delayed, one bag goes missing, and the travel budget is limited. At the station or airport, the group must quickly decide what to do next.
Each traveler has a different priority. One wants the cheapest option, another needs the fastest route, and others are trying to stay calm and find a practical solution. Together, they must compare alternatives, ask for information, and agree on the best decision before it is too late.
