Genially

Https://view.genial.ly/61e4484b45bdb80d2d183877/presentation-presentacion-basica Lesson plan of the project: Planning a travel with Genially Group level: 3 Eso Timing: 5 sessions Vocabulary: places in town, modes of transport, travel Grammar: future tenses (will/be going to/ present simple) One thing I have learned is that students love to talk about travels and plans. Even more so, students love talking to people who are going to visit their home country. Travel lessons are some of my favorite activities… mostly because I love to travel. Watching these types of lessons unfold with a multilingual, multilevel classroom warms my heart because there is always something for everyone. This “Let’s take a trip” lesson is a great project when you are looking for authentic and engaging activities. In this lesson, students will be given a budget and they have to find a destination suitable for that budget.

Timetoast

https://www.timetoast.com/timelines/2706760 My students have enjoyed this activity. They found if very useful, not only for English but for many other subjects.  The first problem we had to face was related to extracting key words and essential information in order to make the timeline but after that the tool has been very useful and easy to use. Regarding our subject (English) it is very useful when we have to organise information of a text or just trying to put together all verb tenses we have already studied in order to make it clearer the differences among them.

READING HABITS

Reading habits establish not only the settlement for every student to understand a topic or a subject but those habits go deeper in the evolution of the human being. Creating and stimulating reading habits make a person capable of generating new thoughts, new words, and new expressions in their mind. Reading fosters the necessity of writing, as well as of keeping our minds organised. But... what about reading in English? It is essential to make our students aware of the importance of reading in English, not just because English is useful but because the world becomes smaller when you know how to read in English. We are living in an era in which we are surrounded by information (info overload), and genuine information is normally written in English (in ever sphere). That is the reason why we (as teachers) have the tough task of fostering our students’ taste for reading for pleasure as well as for academic purposes.   Besides, it is important to highlight that reading habits determ...

Unit 1: MODAL VERBS

Nowadays, we have many platforms where we can express ourselves, our opinions and emotions. However, it is important for you to know how to express feelings, emotions and opinions in a polite way, because, as active citizens we must be conscious of our rights and obligations and know how to complain or request.

Because they’re a type of auxiliary verb (helper verb), they’re used together with the main verb of the sentence. Common examples include can , should , and must .
