Contents and Sample Materials

A Thai Journey offers fresh insight into many facets of life in contemporary Thailand. Ancient cities, a living tradition of Buddhist practice and the world's oldest surviving monarchy contrast with rapid urbanisation and a thriving tourist industry. Never colonised, Thailand has retained its cultural identity despite external influences and the tempo of resource development.

A Thai Journey provides practical and innovative classroom materials and background information for teachers, as well as detailed teaching and learning activities containing strands, outcomes and suggested student activities.

This site has been developed to supplement and enrich the materials and teaching strategies in the book A Thai Journey. The ideas and resources here should be used in association with the units in the book.
