Programa de Inglés en Educación Básica en el Distrito Federal 1A UNIT 1A PRODUCT STAGES SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES • Stage 1 • • • • Stage 2 • • Stage 3 • • Stage 4 • • Stage 5 • • Have Ss think of objects they would like to buy. They can be toys or anything valuable Ss have at home or school. Then, explain what an illustrated advertisement is, and its components. Show different advertisements and have Ss take a look at them in order to identify the object they would like to buy or sell, special features, the price, and the contact details. In groups Ss talk about the advertisements they would be interested in buying. Encourage them to explain why. On the board, list characteristics of different products for Ss to use as references to talk about them (size, colour, etc.). Use the list to introduce vocabulary and have Ss copy the words. Ss share their experience on their last purchase, help them by eliciting information from them, e.g. colour, price, etc. Bring hand outs so Ss look at different ads. Ask Ss to name things they can remember about the elements of ads. Have Ss work in teams to find graphic and textual components with the pictures of the advertisements (prices, telephone numbers, e-mails, symbols, and other numerical information). On a globe or map, elicit different countries and points out the currencies used there. Have Ss research on not well-known symbols such as yens, pounds, or euros. Ask Ss to draw colourful typography to make currency and other important symbols ($, £, €, @). Have Ss produce language discourse like: “This is England. They use pounds”. Ss will identify those useful symbols to use in their ads. Ask Ss to bring several cut outs of symbols from newspapers and ads from supermarket or stores they are familiar with. Have Ss work in groups and ask them to rank the components they will use in their ads from the most to the least important (price, description, image, telephone, etc.). Once they have decided on the importance of the elements, ask them to present the graphic components they found in the ads. Point out the use of different punctuation elements such as exclamation and question marks. Have Ss talk about the impact of ads on people, and if the characteristics specified in the ad are true. Reflect with your Ss on the importance of honesty in any kind of commercial transaction, either if you are the one who sells or buys. Have Ss make an advertisement for an object they want to sell, ask them to use attractive illustrations and some effective language. Remind Ss to use appropriate graphic information, font size and colours to make an impact on the buyer. Ask Ss to reflect on the product they will sell, and if the information provided in the ad is accurate and reliable. Display all the ads around the classroom and have Ss decide which item to buy. Have Ss interact with each other to buy and sell their products using toy bills. Ask them to share the reason why they decided to buy that object. Ss may also have an assessment instrument such as a checklist to verify if the ads have the elements they have learned about through this social practice (image, description, price, contact information, etc.) For further practice, in case they want to make real transactions, they can display their ads in the schoolyard and invite other Ss to buy their products (candies, popcorn, fruit etc.).

Elicit from them the information they will need: (Name) _________ lived around_______ million years ago in ____________. Make sure that all relevant is included. Point out the importance of organizing the information into different paragraphs (introduction, development, and conclusion). Have Ss write the information of the exhibition cards as a first draft. Monitor around and provide any necessary help. In case Ss need to complete the materials, they may find illustrations on internet or make the drawings. Have students come up with many different ideas to decide the title for the exhibition, and organize a brainstorming activity. Encourage Ss to find an attractive or catchy phrase to invite their school community to visit the exhibition. Ss vote for the most original phrase, and decide on the typography, colors and images to be used in the placard. • Have Ss revise the draft previously done in stage 3. Focus Ss’ attention to the structure of the paragraph they wrote, analyze if the title indicates the topic of the text, and if the paragraphs contain main and secondary ideas. Encourage Ss to make a final version of their cards. • • Revise the comprehension and internalization of the knowledge by organizing a contest. Divide the group into three teams: carnivores, herbivores and omnivores. Write questions and information related to the exhibition cards on strips of paper, and put them inside small envelopes and stick them on the board. The groups will run, pick up one envelope, and read the question to the team. If they can answer correctly, they win a point. The class decides the order of the exhibition. • Have Ss set up the exhibition in the classroom, and invite Ss from other grades to the exhibition. Socialize the practice by giving short explanations to the visitors. Stage 5 Stages 7 and 8 Ask Ss to think about what information they want to find about their topic; for example, if the topic is dinosaurs, they can list: weight, height, color, behavior, etc. In a mind map organize the different sources of information they may consult to elaborate their exhibition cards (books, encyclopedias, magazines or internet). Have Ss work in groups so they can choose the topics they want to know more about; each team can have a KWL chart to organize their ideas and thoughts. Ask them to bring all the necessary information (texts and images). Once they gather the information, ask them to underline the main ideas following the pattern of the exhibition cards previously explored in stage 1. Make sure each team has their material prepared to make their exhibition cards.

Invite Ss to come up with many different ideas about media sources such as newspapers, radio, internet, or magazines. Have Ss explore some of these sources and examine the structure of news. Write the words “News programs” on the board, and ask Ss to mention the most famous TV news programs in Mexico. Ask for the names of broadcasters they know. Expose Ss to different pieces of news both in newspapers and on tapes. Ss listen once for general gist, and twice to answer specific questions, such as: who, what, when, where, how, and why. The third time would be to help Ss reconstruct the news in as much detail as possible. Have Ss analyze different formats for presenting information. In teams Ss decide about two interesting kinds of news they would like to research about. They can choose from different categories, such as: sports, culture, entertainment, politics, economy, etc. Draw on the board a web diagram with the question words Who?, What?, Where?, When?, How?, Why? Ask Ss to read and underline in different colors the answers to those questions in one of the pieces of news they brought. As an alternative, ask Ss to fill in the gaps an incomplete piece of news (with information related to people, actions, places or time). Regarding question formation, help Ss with graphic organizers on the board where they see the visual presentation of word formation: 1st column: question words; 2nd column: auxiliaries; 3rd column: subjects; 4th column: verbs; 5th column: complements. Get short pieces of news on different topics (without a title), and have Ss read them out loud in pairs or trios or small groups in order to think of a title to insert. Use Wh Questions to gather information on the news, e.g. where, when, why, what. Have groups of Ss write notes to ask questions using question words under study. Leave questions words exposed. Have Ss work in groups to answer the questions from different pieces of news. Ss can be teamed according to a question word and compete to answer their corresponding question. Ss answer the questions from their own pieces of news in order to write a summary that includes the essential information. Have Ss correct the content of their summary by taking care of punctuation, spelling, etc. Monitor as necessary. Have groups present their pieces of news before exhibiting them. Together, check that information is complete. Ask Ss to look for suitable illustrations for their news summaries. Ss exchange their news with other classmates and verify that the structure of their news is complete. Display the news summary around the classroom, and give Ss an assessment instrument, such as a checklist, so they can walk around and make sure the summaries contain all the elements of news. Clarify to your Ss the goals of journalism (inform, educate and entertain). Ask them to identify which category each news corresponds to. Monitor and correct any spelling mistakes or omissions in the structure of the news. Ask Ss to pay attention to the details. Ss organize themselves in pairs and simulate they are reporters. They choose the type of news they want to share with the rest of the class. It is important that Ss show their pictorial contents while telling their news. All teams get the chance to come to the front and take turns to present their pieces of news and show their pictures. After listening to the news, Ss are encouraged to ask questions to extend, amplify or deepen the information given. Monitor the production of questions. Have Ss reflect upon the process and verbalize the steps or procedures they went through.

Programa de Inglés en Educación Básica en el Distrito Federal 3A UNIT 3A PRODUCT STAGES SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Have Ss go on a scavenger hunt around the classroom looking for nouns they already know or have studied in previous social practices. Make sure each noun has a plural form, and provide visual support by adding an image to the plurals. On the board have a T-chart; label one column with singular nouns and the other column with plural nouns. Ask Ss to give examples of common nouns found on the scavenger list and write them on the chart. Encourage Ss to identify the plural forms by guessing the rule, give examples like dog-dogs, boy-boys, candy-candies, etc. Give Ss a blank T-chart so they can work in groups with new words. After Ss have completed the activity, gather and reflect with them on plural nouns and how they are formed. Ask Ss to close their eyes. Say a word e.g. “cats,” and ask Ss what sound they hear at the end of the word. Continue saying other plural nouns; enunciate the word clearly for students to hear and identify the “s” sound at the end of the word. Have Ss recognize the formation of past tenses by identifying the verbs that finish with -e or -ed. Expose them to a few irregular verbs like: to be, run, write, read, ring, write, and sing, in the context of a short narration of a past event. Do the same with the past continuous and objects in the context of phrases or sentences that Ss identify well. Have Ss read a story from their Reader or from a provided handout. Ask them to identify the verbs in past tense and copy them in their notebooks. If time allows, add some kind of illustration or cutout to make the meaning more memorable. Set a situation in which Ss can recognize the form of regular verbs in past. Play "Six objects" game. Hold up 6 flashcards, one by one, so that all students can see them (make sure Ss know the words for all the objects and verbs). Have Ss write the name of the objects adding the corresponding ending "-s", "-es" or the irregular plural form that corresponds. The one to have all with no mistakes wins. Make a chart with five columns and label them as followed: first column-plurals with “s”, second column-plurals with “es”, third column-irregular plurals, fourth column-regular verbs in past tense with only “d” and fifth column-regular verbs with “-ed” ending. Ask Ss to write the words or use cards with verbs and nouns. This activity can be played as if it were “Stop”. Set a time limit and the ones who finish first and have no mistakes, win the competition. Give out little tokens in recognition. Monitor around and promote peer correction. Stage 4 Have Ss work in teams, they must choose words, from all the vocabulary used during the social practice; to organize a contest. Ss will design rules, graphics, and images for the contest. Ss verify the spelling and correct if necessary. Stage 5 Play "Hangman" using regular verbs and when once they guess the verb, ask Ss to call out the verb with -ing ending and vice versa. To upgrade the difficulty of the game, ask Ss to think of a sentence in past including verbs and nouns in plural, e.g. “Yesterday I checked my notebooks.” Leave a model on the board or lead Ss to discover the order of words in sentences. Programa de Inglés en Educación Básica en el Distrito Federal UNIT 3A SUPPLEMENTAL EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS Readers e.g. On Safari Thematic Frame The book shows students the biodiversity in the context of African countries such as Kenya, where the appreciation for natural resources and species that are different from their own is favored.

Fase de expansión. México, 2011. Programa de Inglés en Educación Básica en el Distrito Federal 3B UNIT 3B PRODUCT STAGES SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Stages 4 and 5 Stages 6 and 7 Design an exercise to order texts, follow steps and convey the idea of a sequence, e.g., “How to install a new telephone set.” Join the ideas with first, then, next, after that, finally, etc. Ss may be given the steps so that they can order them, verbally first, and then into writing. Ss may bring along manuals of gadgets they have bought recently. In teams have Ss choose the object they would like to make or a device they would like to repair. Encourage them to be realistic and resort to real objects they have access to. In a plenary session and with everybody’s contributions ask Ss to provide ideas on how to change a light bulb or use the previously chosen gadget which is out of order as an example. Show Ss three or four illustrated guides; elicit the purpose, intended audience and the objects or devices in each instructive text. Ask Ss to mention other cases where instruction guides are required and how they can be useful when repairing items. In order to contextualize, ask them to think and share about real situations they have experienced and how they managed to solve the problem or situation. Elicit from Ss steps to install a bulb. Provide cohesive devices, verbs and vocabulary as needed so that Ss are able to complete the sequence, e.g., A) First, turn off the light switch. B) Then, unscrew the light bulb. C) After that, unpack the new light bulb. D) Next, place the new light bulb. E) Finally, turn on the light to check the new light bulb works. In pairs, trios or small teams, have Ss play "Guess it with Mimic", whereby some Ss call out the actions in a sequence one by one, while others act them out with mimic. Make sure Ss take turns so that everyone has the chance to speak, act and have fun. Provide Ss with a model, for example: “First, we _______.Then, we ________. After that, we _________. Finally, we __________”. Have Ss complete the sentences following the correct sequence in order to fix the chosen gadget. Have Ss mime out the actions described in stage 2 in a way that is meaningful to them, so that later on they can take these representations as the platform from which they can reconstruct the sequence in visual forms. Ask Ss to bring cutouts related to the steps and materials mentioned in the steps for their guide. Have them work in teams to choose the best illustrations, and to decide on the sequence. Remind Ss about the importance of using connectors to make sequencing more meaningful. Provide them with connectors written on strips of paper. Have a 6 image story or cartoon, and instruct Ss to order them and create a story in six sentences using connectors. Have Ss recall the different connectors used and write them on the board. Divide the group in two teams; have one participant from each team choose the first connector. Make Ss follow the steps in the process or the sequence by selecting the suitable connector. The participant who omits a step on the right sequencing loses points for the team. Repeat this activity at least one more time so that both teams get the chance to either provide the connectors or the sequences. The team that does not miss any step wins. Introduce the concept of "Edit skills" to Ss. Tell Ss these are very useful in real life because they will always have something to correct or edit. Provide Ss with a handout of a sequence to fix a broken item (the one Ss have previously chosen and illustrated), that requires revision, analysis and editing. If Ss seem weak in this respect, attempt the exercise with the whole group as an example of what needs to be done. Ss may then do this individually in their own notebooks. Set a time limit and when everybody has finished, have Ss exchange notebooks so that they can correct each other’s work. Have Ss provide clear corrections so that when they return this to the author, he/she may find them easy to understand in order to make the changes. Provide Ss with a checklist so that the correction is complete and accurate, e.g., punctuation, capitalization, order of ideas and solutions in the case of problems. Display the illustrated guides around the classroom and schedule demonstrations, in which students socialize this social practice by explaining to their classmates or other members of the school community, how to fix gadgets or solve specific problems according to their age and interests.

Programa de Inglés en Educación Básica en el Distrito Federal UNIT 4B PRODUCT STAGES SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES • Stage 1 • • • • • • Stage 2 • • Stage 3 and 4 • • • • Stages 5 and 6 • • Have Ss explore illustrated travelogues, describing experiences, aspects of nature and culture in English speaking countries. Elicit information about the topic of the text based on visual and written clues, images and titles. Relate travelogues to personal experiences. Mention personal situations that can be narrated in a travelogue. Read aloud a travelogue so that Ss get the right pronunciation, stress and intonation. Elicit from Ss the different parts of a travelogue: introduction, body and conclusion. Have Ss identify cultural differences and similarities between Mexico and some English speaking countries. Mention some aspects of mexican cultural expressions so that Ss complete the list with their own contributions if they know them. In case Ss cannot provide examples, explain some to Ss. In a plenary session check all the features and aspects of this type of texts. In groups of four, Ss associate vocabulary related to different aspects of travelling, e.g., types of accommodation, means of transport, eating codes and manners, etc. In trios Ss prepare a short presentation for the rest of the group about the information which can be found in a travelogue, brought by the teacher or by Ss themselves. Prepare a handout with columns that Ss have to complete while listening to the presentation of each group. This vocabulary will be used when Ss write their own descriptive phrases. By means of questions or incomplete phrases Ss get the information to put together several facts of the countries under study. Ss are asked to fill out a handout with incomplete phrases about the USA, Canada, England, Ireland, Scotland, Australia, or New Zealand contrasting Mexico´s facts, e.g., “In Mexico the weather in winter is _____ but in Australia it is _____. In Mexico people eat at midday but in the USA people eat _____,” In small teams Ss complete a chart using a plan sphere or a globe where they point out the countries mentioned and the differences that have been found out and discussed so far. Ss record the information in the chart while they express the discovered contrasts. Have Ss work in pairs in order to complete sentences about Mexico and another country following a model. Monitor and correct only when necessary. Ss put together all the information that is relevant taken from the contents, the structure, the different components, and the vocabulary learned, verifying conventions (punctuation, typography), and core aspects worth checking. Have Ss color and paste images to illustrate their written work. Ss create a cover of their writing using a special sentence or phrase. Encourage Ss to come to the front in groups and show their charts or posters to the rest of their classmates. Ask Ss to point out, name and describe phrases and images they created for their travel brochure. Help Ss decide on the strategic space to display their brochures around the classroom. Have Ss go round the classroom and compare other Ss’ charts, e.g., “Are they similar? What similarities and differences between Mexico and other countries are there in the charts?” Prepare some meta-cognitive questions that would naturally lead to a reflection upon Ss' own learning process. Programa de Inglés en Educación Básica en el Distrito Federal UNIT 4B SUPPLEMENTAL EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS Readers e.g. On Safari Thematic Frame The book shows students the biodiversity in the context of African countries such as Kenya, where the appreciation for natural resources and species that are different from their own is favored. Moreover, it stimulates observation of relevant characteristics of elements of the African savannah and promotes the care of living things such as impalas, zebras, rhinos and more. Furthermore, it also fosters an appreciation for cultures and environments others than their own. e.g. Wild Windstorms Thematic Frame This material supports the observation of important characteristics of environmental elements and natural phenomena; for example, hurricanes and tornados, it reinforces the protection actions in emergency environmental situations, it also helps the rational thinking using evidence as natural disasters occurred in other nations. Picture Dictionary e.g Unit 2: My Family, My Day e.g Unit 3: In the Kitchen, In the Living Room, In the Bedroom, In the Bathroom, Outside de House, In the Garage e.g Unit 4: In the Park, At the Library, Pets at the Vet, At the Mall e.g Unit 6: Fruit, Vegetables, Food 1, Food 2 Thematic Frame To invite students to investigate short illustrated travel stories in which from what they observe they be able to recognize natural and cultural aspects of English-speaking countries. To make games that allow students to give a coherent sequence to paragraphs of the story, adding an association to a variety of images that illustrate the actions of the story. To emphasize the use of punctuation promoting cognitive challenges in which students identify the importance of proper their proper use.

Programa de Inglés en Educación Básica en el Distrito Federal 5A UNIT 5A PRODUCT STAGES SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES • Stage 1 • • • • Stages 2 and 3 • • • Stage 4 • • • Stage 5 • • • Stage 6 • • • • Stage 7 • • Ask Ss to brainstorm the different texts they can recognize and which have been used in previous social practices, such as: letters, notes, news, ads, exhibition cards, messages etc. Elicit information from Ss and write answers on the board. Focus Ss attention on questionnaires by asking them to explore their Spanish and English books. Guide Ss to describe the characteristics, purpose and use of this kind of text. Have Ss find one questionnaire in their English book and verify if it complies with the previously explained characteristics. Group Ss and have them decide on a specific academic topic of their interest; so that they can make their own questionnaire and administer it to other Ss. Use this activity as a reinforcement of other subjects studied in class, like Science, Spanish, Social Studies etc. Introduce Ss to the two types of questions (closed and open), and practice them verbally. Have Ss explore different questionnaires in order to discover the differences and structure of both types of questions. It would be of great help if Ss are provided with several types of graphic organizers to decide the correct word order of questions. Have Ss play in teams to practice the structure of questions. Organize a question-answer matching activity. Put slips of paper with questions in a box, and place pieces of paper with their corresponding answers on the floor. One S takes a slip of paper with a question, while other classmates look for the answer on the pieces of paper. The one who recognizes the answer first, picks it up from the floor and wins a point. Have Ss work with their assigned groups. Monitor around and make sure all members of the team cooperate in the negotiation of the topic and the number of questions their questionnaire will have. Ss work in teams in order to find the information to be used in the design of their questionnaire. Ss work in teams in order to find the information to be used in the design of their questionnaire, if possible use the ICT lab and/or their text books. Ask Ss to highlight the main ideas of the selected information. Monitor around and provide any necessary help. Design and provide Ss with a questionnaire which include open questions (comprehension and opinion) and close questions (true/false and multiple choice). Guide Ss to discover how these questions differentiate from one another, and the importance of including some of these types in the questionnaire they will design. Provide Ss with a model to write open-ended and close-ended questions and elicit examples from Ss. Model the questions and answer as much as necessary. Model the questions and have them practice the structure using activities like scrambled sentences or word search provide any necessary help and correct mistakes. Have Ss write close-ended questions and open-ended questions for their questionnaires using the model previously provided. If necessary, leave a frame on the board or use cue cards to help Ss. Ss review the questions they have already written in teams in order to determine the order for the questionnaire. Help Ss to consider grouping the questions depending on the type of question: comprehension, true/false, etc. Encourage Ss to consider what order will imply less time to be answered, and remind them to follow these criteria when organizing the questions: go from easy to difficult, go from factual to abstract, and start questions relevant to the main subject. Ask Ss to look for visual aids that support their questionnaire content; all members of the team may draw and color the illustrations. Monitor around and use an assessment instrument, e.g., anecdotal notes, checklist or rubrics, to register if all the members of the team cooperate to work in the solution of problems and respect others’ opinions. Have Ss identify the sources of information used in the design of the questionnaire (books, internet, encyclopedia, etc.), and ask them to integrate this information to their questionnaire){ Check and correct spelling or grammar errors if needed, clarify doubts related to the formation of questions. Provide Ss with a questionnaire handout and ask them to label its parts. Have Ss write the final draft of the questionnaire and incorporate the illustrations. When they are ready, have Ss exchange the questionnaires and ask other groups to solve them. Verify with the whole class if the answers to the different questions are accurate. If necessary, contrast the answers with the sources which were used in the design of the questionnaires. In a plenary session, analyze the whole process they have gone through for the design, organization and application of the questionnaires. Prepare a series of metacognitive questions to make Ss reflect upon their own learning processes. Gradually, Ss pose the questions themselves with little or no help from the teacher. As extra practice, ask Ss to write a question on a piece of paper for everybody to listen to and state if it is right, wrong, complete or incomplete. The team that gets the most answers wins the contest. If necessary, have Ss verbalize the rules for question formation.

PRODUCT QUICK GUIDE TO WALK FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER WITHIN THE COMMUNITY Stage 1 Make a sketch of the community. Stage 2 Select locations you want to go to, considering the school as the point of departure Stage 3 Check natural features or man-made constructions that can be used as points of reference on the map. Stage 4 Trace a route to go from the school to the selected location on the map. Stage 5 Write sentences with directions to follow a route and go from one place to another, based on a model. Stage 6 Check that directions are clear and offer the shortest route, that they are complete, and that words comply with writing conventions and have accurate punctuation. Stage 7 Prepare a quick guide with directions to move around the community and present it to the class and other classes. SEP. Programa Nacional de Inglés en Educación Básica. Segunda Lengua: Inglés. Programas de estudio 2010. Ciclo 3. 5° y 6° de Primaria. Fase de expansión. México, 2011. Programa de Inglés en Educación Básica en el Distrito Federal 5B UNIT 5B PRODUCT STAGES SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES • Stage 1 • • • • • Stage 2 • • • Stage 3 • • • Stage 4 • • • • Stages 5 and 6 • • • • Stage 7 • • Put up signs in the classroom indicating north, south, east, west, park, library, bank, etc. Have Ss stand up in a circle and give instructions to play Simon Says, e.g. “Simon says... move north!” Ss walk towards the north of the room. Once in a while tell them to go somewhere (or move left for example), but without saying “Simon Says”, Ss who do it will lose and sit down; continue until there is only one S standing. Have Ss name the different places and buildings which are near the school community (grocery store, bakery, bank, drugstore, etc.). Encourage Ss to use a bilingual dictionary to look for unknown words. Have Ss work in groups and draw their school and its surroundings on a piece of cardboard. Ask each group to compare and contrast with other groups their community sketch to be enriched. Ask Ss “Where are you going to go next weekend?” Elicit answers from the class and ask the following questions “Are you going to travel by car? By bus? By subway?” Encourage Ss to tell which means of transportation they use. Divide the group in two teams. Write on the board the prepositions “by” and “on”. Explain the use of these prepositions when you are talking about transportation, brainstorm means of transport and write the examples on the board, e.g. car, bicycle, subway, foot, etc. Have Ss write the means of transport under the correct preposition and check answers with the whole class. Considering the school as the point of departure, select some places of Ss’ interest they would like to go to from their original sketch. Recall how they get to each of those places and provide a model if necessary e.g. “I can go to the subway station by car”. As a reinforcement activity, prepare a map of the neighborhood and have Ss recognize: north, south, east, west, and center. Consider beforehand the places Ss would like to go to. Have Ss practice the vocabulary used to designate different types of buildings, natural features or man-made constructions in their community. Ask Ss to follow the routes on the map and practice the language verbally. Ss are exposed to language used for asking for and giving directions through the use of a map on a handout. Have Ss trace the routes to go to the places which are near the school and previously identified. Think of an activity where the vocabulary needed for this social practice is revised and practiced. For example, have Ss match words to definitions. Have a poster and/or handout of a neighborhood and label the public places shown on it. Play a guessing game; e. g, “You may buy medicines in this place: drugstore. You buy bread and cakes in this place: bakery. You deposit money and cash checks: Bank. You buy fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, plants, and flowers: market”. Introduce words for location, such as: across: along, around, towards, down, in front of, turn right / left, at, between, behind, in front of, etc. In a short dialogue have a formal presentation of how to ask and give directions to go to the different places previously identified in their maps. In pairs have Ss practice the dialogues, and then ask them to compare the routes they traced with their classmates. Have Ss trace routes to go to different places from school. Expose Ss to the same exchange of questions and answers for checking. In a situation that is common to everybody start with statements Ss know to be true and then display how to incorporate questions into these statements e. g. “We are in English class, aren’t we?” Point out you are essentially making sure that you are correct about something by confirming what you think or assume to be true. Introduce Ss to the idea of tag questions guide them so that they discover the grammar behind tag questions. Have Ss complete statements with the elements seen so far. Move the tables and chairs by rows to simulate real blocks of buildings. To make this more realistic, ask Ss to give the real names to blocks. Have Ss design the facades of wellknown buildings in the neighborhood and take them as reference to give directions. In pairs, Ss simulate they are walking along, across the streets and round the corners so that they experience what it is like to ask for directions and follow instructions. Have Ss place themselves in front, next to, or behind buildings or well-known places so that they are in a position to describe exactly where they are and how they are going to move to go to a different place. Have Ss describe their location with respect to each other. In pairs ask Ss to write a short dialogue similar to the ones they practiced to ask for and give directions; encourage Ss to include in their dialogues tag questions. Have Ss come to the front and read their dialogue aloud so that everybody else listens to it, and contributes with ideas to make it better or clearer. Have Ss illustrate in their maps the directionality of prepositions previously studied with the aid of arrows. In teams Ss may actually walk along, across, round corners on their adapted map in the classroom. Label the different tables with names of real places they are familiar with. Once they have experienced moving in “their neighborhood,” ask them to compare the different routes they chose and identify which is the shortest or the shortcuts they can use if necessary. Have Ss exchange their quick guides or display them in the classroom in order to share and check them. Using this information, Ss act out dialogues in pairs; while the rest of the group checks if these dialogues have an introduction, body and conclusion. Guide Ss reflection upon their learning processes and the benefit of asking directions and giving instructions appropriately in real-life situations. If possible present the quick guides to sixth graders and link this knowledge to instructions to use means of transportation.
