Travel notes how to write them. Essay in the genre of travel notes (grade 9)

Travel notes (Lessons 23-24)

Travel notes, like an essay, are created on the basis of the author’s observations of the facts of reality, but contain (include) not only a reproduction of what he saw, but also the author’s thoughts and feelings in connection with what he saw. As K. Paustovsky wrote, “a fact presented literary, with the omitting of unnecessary details and with the condensation of several characteristic features, illuminated by the faint radiance of fiction, reveals the essence of things a hundred times brighter and more accessible than a truthful and down to the smallest detail accurate protocol.”

Travel notes and essays help to see how our country is transforming, where and how factories and power plants are being built, cities are growing, space is being explored, nature is changing, the way of life of people is changing, and man himself is changing.

The educational impact of travel notes lies in the fact that they truthfully and figuratively reflect life, that they not only affirm the positive, but also reveal shortcomings and difficulties - this genre is an important means of the author’s active intervention in life, in various phenomena of everyday reality.

Travel notes include a description of the area, landscape, portraits of characters, elements of narration and reasoning, and dialogues.

Lesson 23

Purpose of the lesson

To give the concept of travel writing as one of the varieties of the journalistic genre, to acquaint students with their features and structure.

Equipment

Books (for example, V. Kantorovich. “Notes of a Writer on a Modern Essay”; Y. Smuul. “The Ice Book”; N. N. Mikhailov. “At the Map of the Motherland”, “Russian Land”, “I Walk along the Meridian”; V . Soloukhin. "Vladimir Country Roads"; V. Konetsky. "Salty Ice", as well as A. N. Radishchev. "Journey from St. Petersburg to Moscow", A. S. Pushkin. "Travel to Arzrum", A. P. Chekhov "Sakhalin Island" and others.

Main stages of work

This lesson can begin in different ways: with a conversation, with an analysis of travel notes or essays available in the book for students “Develop the Gift of Speech” (see exercises 87-89, etc.) or collected independently, with a short introductory speech from the teacher and etc.

The sequence and variety of stages and forms of work depend on the specific conditions in which classes take place, on the composition of the optional group, its interests and capabilities, on the learning tools available to students (player, tape recorder, overhead projector, camera, etc.). It is very good if, while preparing for this lesson, students take interesting walks and excursions, record their observations and impressions, take photographs of the area, historical monuments and secluded corners of nature, record interesting encounters, voices of birds and animals on tape or in diaries, " village voices" and the sounds of a big city, railway station, river station, etc.

Let's look at the content of some stages of the lesson in more detail.

Selective reading and analysis of V. Peskov’s travel essay “The River of My Childhood” can begin with answers to the questions that are proposed in the assignment for exercise. 87 in the book "Develop the Gift of Speech." Or you can - and with a brief message about the author himself: what interests him, what he wrote, what he likes to talk about (remember “Steps on the Dew”, the program “In the Animal World”). To reveal the true meaning of V. Peskov’s expression “Each of us has our own river”, listening to songs in tune with this topic, viewing slides or film clips “Around our native land”, students’ sketches and photographs will help.

The head of the elective, together with the student body, selects in advance a song that is interesting for this group, and it is played at a certain stage of the lesson. We offer several songs to choose from (of course, the teacher and students have the right to replace or supplement them):

“My Motherland” (lyrics by E. Yevtushenko, music by B. Terentyev),

“I love Russia” (lyrics by P. Chernyaev, music by A. Novikov), “Native Land” (lyrics by V. Tatarinov, music by E. Ptichkin),

“I sing about Moscow” (lyrics by Yu. Polukhin, music by S. Tulikov), “Sea Heart” (lyrics by S. Ostrovoy, music by B. Terentyev), “Meadow Flowers” ​​(lyrics by S. Krasikov, music G. Ponomarenko). After listening to one or two songs (more songs can distract from solving the main task), the analysis of travel notes and essays can be continued. You should pay attention to the composition of the analyzed text (where it begins, how it ends, what parts it is divided into, why events are presented in a given sequence, etc.) and the features of the author’s language.

Students’ independent work in elective classes should be purposeful and specific. Students are offered differentiated tasks for one text or, conversely, similar tasks for several notes or essays. Here, for example, are the questions and tasks that can be asked of students when working on V. Peskov’s travel essay “The River of My Childhood”:

1. How does the author describe his favorite river at the beginning of the essay based on childhood memories? ("...For me, this river was the first and perhaps the main school of life... A nightingale trill at night... We learned to swim as naturally as we learn to walk in childhood... And how many joys and Fishing gave me discoveries as a child!”, etc.) How are the author’s feelings expressed when he sees a “river without water”? ("The river was without water... (cf. a house without windows, a forest without trees)... a grassy ghost of a river... And below the dam lay a dry and black canyon... a red-breasted bird, which had flown in for a swim, barely got its paws wet. .. The hour was especially sad when I finally reached the places that were especially dear to me...")

How does the author’s mood change when he sees the famous Usman Forest, cut by the deep-flowing Usmanka? (“My heart sank with joy when, already at dusk, the boat got out onto the wide reaches... And the whole life of the reserved forest stretched here, to the shores... On the shore, like stray bullets, they pierced the crowns of oak trees and acorns fell heavily into the darkness ... By the light of a flashlight, I wrote in my diary: “Reserved reaches. Happy day. Everything was almost like in childhood”...)

2. Explain the meaning of incomprehensible words and expressions that are important in revealing the content of the text (canyon - a deep narrow valley eroded by a river; reach - a wide expanse of water on a river or lake; floodplain - a low part of a river valley that is flooded during high water and floods, where good grass grows, a water meadow). Give an explanation of how local words and expressions are formed: tramp, shaggy, sweaty place; Find in the explanatory dictionary an explanation of the meaning of the words: bochag, pothole, chaplygi, etc.

3. Find in the text words denoting the names of plants, shrubs, trees (reed, willow, willow, willow, hop, sedge, meadowsweet, hemlock, alder, bird cherry), names of animals, birds, fish (osprey, crake, beaver, heron , sandpiper, nightjar, kingfisher, burbot, perch, bee-eater, ide). Which of these plants and animals do you know? What can you tell about their habits and characteristics?

4. Carry out a word-formation analysis of words denoting the names of settlements: Moskovka, Bezymyanka, Privalovka, Zheldaevka, Lukichevka, Enino, Krasino, Gorki, Pushkari, Streltsy, Storozhevoye, Krasnoe. Find in the “Concise Toponymic Dictionary” by V. A. Nikonov and other manuals the origin of the names (toponyms) of cities, rivers and villages: Moscow, Smolensk, Tula, Pskov; Gorki, Krasnoe, Usman, Ples; Elan, Ugra, Unzha, Usolye, Pochinok, Priluki, Yamskaya. Try to explain the name of the village, town, village, city where you live.

Students’ independent work can be continued using the material from other exercises (see the student manual “Develop the Gift of Speech”).

Questions and assignments for exercise texts direct students’ attention to the connection between the content and form of travel notes and essays, and focus on a holistic perception of the text.

Analysis and discussion of the materials collected by students can begin by viewing slides, photographs, drawings made by the children on a hike, on an excursion, by listening to diary entries and rough notes. During the discussion, it becomes clear what made the students difficult in the travel sketches they began, what they were able to observe, what thoughts and feelings the pictures of nature evoked and how this “falls on paper”, reflected and recorded by the young travelers. Students read their notes and explain why such a beginning was chosen, what the meaning of this description is, for what purpose a dialogue or lyrical digression is included in the text, how the travel notes are supposed to end and how to title it. Experience shows that young travel writers pay little attention to justifying the purpose of the trip. The lack of motivation makes it difficult to perceive the text and understand the author’s position. Students often avoid descriptions of nature and locality, and if they introduce them, it is clumsily, formally, and sometimes lacks argumentation.

The texts of the exercises and the assignments for them are designed to help students choose a place from which a city or village street, a river or lake, or collective farm fields can be clearly seen, i.e., the “objects of description” necessary for travel notes. But students’ attention should not only be focused on shortcomings.

Young authors who reflected living impressions in their notes and expressed their attitude to the fact and event being described should be encouraged; included their own thoughts and reflections in connection with what they saw; were able to unambiguously express their civic position.

Summarizing the discussion of the collected materials, the leader of the elective classes points out that travel notes and essays help the reader see how our country is transforming: cities are growing, factories and power plants are being built, high-rise buildings are being raised, railways and new metro lines are being laid, virgin lands are being developed . And at the same time, man himself, the builder and creator of a new life, is transformed.

Students finalize the collected materials. This stage of work can be carried out in the form of consultation with individual students. The supervisor answers questions about the content and form of travel notes, helps with advice on improving the composition of the essay, points out errors in language and style, and gives specific advice and recommendations.

Consultations with groups of students working on related travel writings are recommended. The leader may invite individual students to read already completed parts of the text, ready-made fragments of work, and even, if time permits, entire essays. The attention of writers is drawn to how the main thought (idea) of travel notes is expressed, whether it is clear to the author himself and whether it is brought to the reader’s consciousness, what this work teaches, whether travel notes are well constructed (is there anything superfluous that is unsaid and unproven), what is the author's language? If necessary, and at this stage of work, it is possible to once again turn to the analysis of the texts included in the student manual “Develop the Gift of Speech” (see, for example, exercise 88 and the assignment for it).

Instructions

When planning your next trip, try to prepare in advance for the fact that you will keep a travel diary. To get started, seek professional help. Surely, you have at least once watched the programs “Around the World”, “Bad Notes” or turned on the “Travel-TV” channel. Find any of the stories from these cycles in the program guide or on the Internet. See them from the point of view of a traveler and journalist. Pay attention to the emphasis of the plot. Sketch out a rough plan for taking travel notes in a notebook or any digital device convenient for you.

First, mark the date, time and place from which you begin your travel notes. By the way, you can start keeping your travel notes immediately after you leave home and go to the airport or train station. Secondly, start the morning of each next day with new photographs and notes on them, making sure to record their date. Accompany your comments with photographs. There can be quite a lot of them; later you will have to carefully select the most interesting ones for your travel notes.

Be sure to take pictures of every interesting object. This could be a local market with an abundance of seafood or tropical fruits, festive processions or simply scenes from life, imbued with the flavor inherent in a given place. If you do not have the opportunity to immediately write down comments on the footage in a notepad, use the voice recorder, which you probably have in your mobile phone. This will help you later recreate your impressions of what you saw and describe them in travel notes.

Don’t forget a very important point: record every vivid impression of what you see not only in a photo or video, but also in your comments to it. The sooner you describe your feelings, the more interesting and vivid your travel notes will be. Do not overload your notes with detailed historical information received from a guide or on the Internet; those who want to find out the details will do this themselves. Also, you shouldn’t put mean and impersonal captions like “local market”, “view of the mountain”, etc. under the photos. Try to make the description interesting for the readers of your notes.

Your journey is over. Now is the time to organize all your note-taking material in chronological order. Collect all sources for notes together: record texts from a voice recorder, add notes from other sources, download photos. In any program convenient for you that works with texts and images, write your notes by inserting photographs and captions to them. You can also give each photo an original name, use your imagination and sense of humor. Be sure to re-read the notes and give them to your loved ones to read. Liked? Feel free to post your travel notes on your page, blog or any website where tourists share their travel impressions.

My article “Travel Notables” appeared in the June issue of Cosmopolitan. Actually, I’m writing about this here in order to give you the idea to bring back from your summer trips not only inspiration, but also notes ready for publication.. It doesn’t matter where you publish your observations: in LiveJournal, in an almanac or in a collection, the main thing is to realize that the summer was not in vain! And travel notes are a great start for something more!

Previously, wide flared jeans and video equipment, like the soul of a Soviet man, were brought from distant countries. Nowadays, tourist fashion requires us to be able to write travel notes or, in modern terms, travelogues.

In fact, travelogues have been around for a long time.. The tradition began with the Greeks and Arabs when they began to describe their travels in detail, in the smallest detail. A little later, the trend reached Europe. By the eighteenth century, “books of travel” had gained such popularity that almost every famous writer necessarily resorted to this genre. For example, Alexander Radishchev, who anonymously published “Journey from St. Petersburg to Moscow” in 1790, wrote a real travelogue, without even knowing it.

“When I lived in Malaysia for two years, friends suddenly suggested that I write down my observations in the form of travel notes. I liked the proposal, and I began to think about what interesting things I could tell about the country. I didn’t want to simply state well-known facts. Then I had the idea to do a series of interviews with local residents, since I know the language well. Who did I meet during that year: from Indian taxi drivers to a stern, but incredibly attractive oil tycoon. For each interview, I included a portrait sketched in pencil and my impressions of the meeting. Thus was born a project that will soon be launched by a well-known publishing house. And now I have moved to Vietnam and have already begun to meet the Vietnamese.”
Lika, 29 years old

In travelogues, the author not only describes his journey, but also passes the national flavor through the prism of his perception. This is a piece of work in an individual style. After all, it’s one thing to copy the words of a guide who told why some temples of the ancient Angkor complex are closed to tourists. And it’s quite another thing to secretly explore these temples and describe your advice in notes, interspersing them with funny stories about how you were almost arrested by law enforcement officers, from whom you managed to pay off with two dollars.

In a travelogue, events are often presented in a certain chronology, but you can choose any topic. You can concentrate on serious thinking about the country and the fate of the nation, as I did Rebecca West in the book about Yugoslavia “Black Lamb and Gray Falcon”. You can settle in one of the cozy corners of the planet and convey in your notes the atmosphere of the place, like Peter Mail with his bestseller A Year in Provence. If you are in the country “on duty,” describe your impressions of your work, combining professional tales with local legends. This is exactly what I played on Denis Tsepov in his book “Keep your legs crossed, or Russian tales of an English obstetrician,” in which he described how British ladies give birth.

Look through search engines to see how many people have recently been interested in the country you want to talk about. But if, for example, there is no demand for Djibouti, this does not mean that there is no need to write about it. Look for unique ways of presenting, think about how to interest the reader. It might be worth inserting scary legends or diluting the description with excerpts from old letters and diaries. For example, so much has already been written about treasure hunters that if you stack books, you can build the Great Wall of China. At the same time, the topic of diamond prospectors remains almost untouched. Write down everything that might be useful, get to know the locals, but don’t get carried away with “jokes, legends, toasts.” Otherwise, you can end up stealing girls and communicating with charming horsemen. However, this can also make a great story!

Tips for beginning travel bloggers:

1. Brainstorm, on your own or with friends. Collect all the facts, notes in notebooks, price tags and used tickets, guidebooks, maps, photographs. Think about what facts you are missing and where you can find them. Sketch out a plan on paper.

2. Decide what exactly you will describe: conversations with locals, impressions of national cuisine, private accommodation or fun adventures on the road. Focus on one thing!

3. Think through the plot. If you are going to simply describe your life in the spirit of “woke up, ate, went to sleep,” readers will fall asleep with you. Add vivid details, dialogues, interesting incidents from your life abroad.

4. Imagine your potential reader and think about what he can glean from your travelogue: a description of convenient routes, a master class on trading with local sellers, information about “secret places” where you can buy jewelry almost free of charge.

5. Make a “do’s and don’t’s” list for the reader- what you can do and what you cannot do in this country. If you know that in Thailand you cannot pat children on the head or give money with your left hand, write about it!

6. Use your strengths make your travelogue unique, decorate it with drawings or photos. It’s great if you know about cooking and can not only review the best Parisian restaurants, but also write how to prepare the “poor Parisian’s sauce” at home. Or refute the usual:who said ladies don't swear, ha, cross your legs!

Summer is vacation time. No not like this. Summer is the time to travel. Finally, you can see what is there, beyond the horizon. Minimum clothes, maximum impressions. And I really want this not to end.

Summer will end. There will be memories that will warm you up on long winter evenings and provide a topic for conversation with friends. And that's what I thought. Looking at photographs is one thing. Human memory is not perfect. Very quickly you will forget that mood, those people, good and bad, you met along the way. We need to do something about this. Do not spill the memories of a unique summer, save it for yourself, for your children, for your loved ones. The only way out is to write travel notes.

How to do it? It’s one thing to say “I’ll write.” It's another thing to force yourself to sit down and write. When you are about to write, there are so many thoughts. If you sit down, a universal emptiness envelops the consciousness, subconscious and other parts of the brain. We will act according to plan.

First plan: technical side.

• Write down everything that happened at the same time every day. For example, at 21.00. It failed, then in the morning at 9.00. This will become a habit and it will become easier to sit yourself down at the table.
• Prepare supplies and workspace so that searching for all this does not interrupt the creative process.
• It's good to have a laptop. If not, you need a notebook. Yes, thicker. The place where you write should also be organized. You can add plan items.
• Let's not forget the camera!

Second plan: direct travel writing.
Here we act according to this plan. We start with the designation of date, time, place. Next, we begin to describe the place we are in, our fellow travelers, and events.

Describing the place is probably the easiest way. What I see is what I write. Let’s not forget the most important thing: to evaluate what we see, to describe our mood while admiring the area and the statements of others, if any.

It's a little more difficult with people. A person has not only an external, but also an internal. From the outside, everything is clear: name, approximate, by eye, age, marital status (if possible), what he does, appearance, demeanor, gestures, smile, features. The inner can be expressed by your conversations with him. Here you can not reproduce exactly what was said down to every word, but simply convey the essence of the conversation in a few words that reflect the views of the interlocutor. Again, let’s not forget the main thing: evaluate a person, you can listen to what others have to say about him, but we won’t stoop to discussing behind his back.

Describing the events of our journey, we will use works of art, or rather their plot structure. After all, how do writers write? According to plan. And in this regard there are only 4 points.

1. The beginning. We answer the question: how did the event begin?
2. Development of action. You directly describe what actions took place, who did what, said, thought.
3. Climax. This is the most intense moment of action, when everything is on the verge of life and death, pros and cons, good and evil.
4. Denouement. How did the event end? What lesson did you learn from it? How has it changed your life and those around you?

While traveling, we can become not only the heroes of some incident, but also its observers and witnesses. This is also a good idea to write down. After all, a wise person learns from the mistakes of others.
Don’t forget that people love to read, firstly, the memoirs of famous people (and now ordinary people), and secondly, the notes of travelers. Who knows, maybe you will write notes about your journey not only for yourself? Unleash your talents!

This summer we went to visit our grandparents, who live very far from us. Mom and Dad prepared for this day in advance, bought tickets and gifts for relatives, and I packed my things. Since our journey would be long, my mother and I prepared food to take with us on the train. And now this day has come. Early in the morning, my mother woke us all up, and we went to have breakfast, hastily collected the last of our things, and checked our documents. Grandma Valya came to see us off, this is Dad’s mother. We took the bus and went to another city. Our journey lasted about two hours, we drove through the huge Belovezhskaya Pushcha. Along the way, I managed to see a large number of trees and flowers. We passed small villages and big cities. The road was not long.

Then at 13.00 we had a train. My parents and I went into our carriage, laid out our things, and prepared our documents, since it was an expensive trip across the border. And so we hit the road. What beautiful cities and villages we drove through, I admired the amazing nature. 12 hours later we arrived at our destination. There we were met by our aunt, my mother’s sister. She made a small tour of the city for me personally. The last time I was here I was still very young and I don’t remember anything. I saw huge monuments, theaters and parks.

After walking around the city a little and seeing all its sights, we had a bus to visit grandma at the appointed time. Another 2 hours and we are there. I've been waiting for this for so long. Expensive showed me very quickly. And now, finally, we are visiting.

Option 2

My father is a big fan of hiking. Not infrequently, waking up early in the morning, while everyone was still sleeping, I watched as dad, armed with a large backpack, a fishing rod and a happy smile, left the house, quietly closing the door behind him. And then one day, from a conversation between my father and mother, I realized that the next morning he was also going to go on a mushroom hike for several days.

It was the autumn holidays and I begged my dad to take me with him, I even said that I didn’t need a gift for the New Year, I wanted so much to understand what attracted my father that he left his home with such a happy face and in a hurry to leave. The next morning I woke up before even my father, packed my small backpack, got dressed and waited in the hallway. Half an hour later, my father, in full readiness, headed towards the exit, but then I blocked his path. I wanted to start begging him to take me with him, but he put his finger to his mouth and said “shhh”, took my hand and we left the house together.

It was quiet and foggy outside. We silently walked to the train station, boarded the train and I immediately fell asleep. When the train stopped, I opened my eyes and saw that dad was already taking our backpacks off the top shelves, I jumped up and began to help him. We got off the train and immediately headed into the dense forest. I felt a little scared, the forest was so huge, something was rustling, falling and screaming everywhere, but when I saw my father’s calm face, I calmed down a little, and after he looked at me and cheerfully said: “Breathe deeply!” It became completely calm and joyful. A little later, we came to the camp, which my father’s friends had already set up. There was a large fire burning there, tents stood around it, and between them, various mushrooms were dried on stretched ropes.

We drank tea and it was the most delicious tea I had ever tasted, it was made from various herbs and completely without sugar, and after that, father and his friends took bags and guns and moved somewhere. I also got up, but my father said that I couldn’t go with them, asked me to stay in the camp and help Aunt Lena prepare dinner, so I did. I had a great time there, but without waiting for dad and his friends, I fell asleep.

In the morning I woke up to my father screaming and shaking me, I didn’t understand anything! Having woken up a little, I began to understand what he was saying and I was also seized with horror. Dad remembered that when we left home, we didn’t warn Mom that I also went with Dad. At that very moment I got dressed and completely forgot to say goodbye to everyone, I even forgot my backpack, and ran with my dad back to the train. At home, my mother, of course, began to scold us for not warning her, but she wasn’t worried about me at all, she said that from the fact that I tried so hard to persuade my dad to take me with him the day before yesterday, she guessed that I went with him. Dad and I laughed for a long time.

That's how I went on the road for the first time with my father.

Essay in the genre of travel notes, grade 9

5:00 Monday

We're leaving. Hooray! I can’t even believe that I’m able to wake up at half past five. But for the sake of a pleasant trip - with pleasure. Yesterday I still didn’t manage to go to bed early, although my mother advised me, but I needed to finish some things and pack my suitcase. I'll sleep in the car anyway!

Monday evening

We've arrived! Cheers cheers! The journey went well. I slept almost all the time. We stopped at gas stations a couple of times. They all look alike. The coffee is not tasty... I looked out the window from the car (a couple of times my mother allowed me to ride in the “navigator”), a sad landscape, but so Russian. Our sad autumn nature. Bare branches, gray sky, drizzle. But the further we drove south, the more colorful leaves there were on the branches - here they had not yet flown around. And the grass is green, and the sun is peeking through... We stood in traffic jams for a while, while bridges were being repaired, and got lost a little. But we arrived, phew.

It was a day to rest. The city where grandma lives is a town, rather. It comes from a factory, and the factory is no longer working well. Almost all of them are old people... All the young people have left for the “capital” of the region. The city center - one fast food restaurant, a church and a store - just big, not even a shopping center. We communicate with relatives and visit guests.

Today we went to the museum. It was interesting! It's all a bit mixed up, really. The museum was open until six, but at half past five all its workers were already standing in their jackets and looking at us disapprovingly.

Now we have reached the main city of the region. There's scope here! And sushi bars and discos. Lush buildings, lots of cars, lots of people. We walked along the streets, along the embankment. Except it’s already autumn, there’s no one in particular there, the cafes are closed. But this also has a special atmosphere.

Today, on the contrary, we spent the day in the village. We went to the river! Watching, of course, not swimming. We walked in the forest - we even picked mushrooms, and my father fished. There are so many more chrysanthemums here.

The village is large and prosperous. Many brick houses, vineyards, vegetable gardens. The people are cheerful.

On the road again. The holidays are ending soon... It's a pity, I could have walked here for another week.

We deliberately drove past cities - all around the district, but, of course, we drove through many villages. Wooden houses, not very bright, like nature.

Sunday

Here we are at home! They brought so many impressions and gifts. It’s good that we did everything at home that weekend, now we don’t even need to get ready for school tomorrow. And there we will probably write an essay on how I spent my holidays. Fine!
