Dream Vacation
Essential Questions:
Congratulations! You have been selected by Bonyos Vacations Travel Agency to participate in a dream vacation contest! Use your persuasive skills to convince the Bonyos Agency that you have planned the most exciting dream vacation while maintaining a defined budget. If you are the most convincing, you will win the vacation (ok, not really, but you will win a prize).
Imagine you could travel anywhere in Asia, Africa, or Australia. Where would you go? Use your imagination (and research skills) and plan your dream vacation. There are a few requirements:
1) You can go anywhere you want in Asia, Africa, or Australia.
2) You must travel to three different destinations (no more than 2 per continent).
3) You must bring one other person (who is your partner). But, please don’t worry too much; Bonyos is giving you a budget of $20,000.
4) However, there is a caveat (that means there’s a catch); you must spend within $500 of your $20,000 budget to receive full credit. In the coming days you will be provided with more detailed information to help plan your trip.
Happy Travels,

Purpose:
This is a project based learning unit that was designed to have the students plan a dream vacation given a specific budget. They will compare cost of various forms of transportation and lodging. They will compute sales tax, gas mileage and total vacation price. They will select leisure activities and investigate related expenses. They will also research the culture of their various destinations. The project will culminate with the students utilizing their vacation journal to present and persuade the Bonyos Agency (teachers and classmates) through a video or power point presentation that they deserve to win the vacation.
Essential Questions:
- What elements factor into the cost and planning of a dream vacation?
- How do I stay within a budget while planning my dream vacation?
