Realia: Authentic Language Resources
Realia is the use of objects or resources to teach languages in a "real" setting, i.e. the authentic language that is actually used in everyday life. Every time I travel, I like to collect realia to help with language learning. You will find below many photos, menus, road signs, brochures, receipts, etc. that I have collected from the countries indicated by the flags.
