5. Writing:
Each group writes a brochure for the Tesco managers (a written version of their
presentation, containing the map. 150 words max).
6. Writing:
Suggestion for a European section exam project:
Visit your local supermarket and carry out a
survey – how many fair trade products do they stock, and how many brands?
Look at where and how the products are
displayed. Present the
results as tables or on a world map.
You could also carry out a consumer survey,
e.g. devise a questionnaire to gauge public awareness of Fairtrade and raise
its profile. The results of the surveys could be analysed, displayed and
written up as a report to the shop manager.
CECR è B2 : Je peux écrire un essai ou un rapport en transmettant une
information ou en exposant des raisons pour ou contre une opinion donnée.
