2. General aspects
LEVEL: 4º ESO
TYPE OF SCHOOL: State school
TIME DISTRIBUTION: 3 sessions of one hour
Regarding the organisation of the sessions, we have
considered useful to firstly provide the students with
real examples of English, in order to make them
deduce what new features of the language are
happening. Afterwards, when the students are aware
of them and have used them with some exercises,
theory will be explained to them. We believe in a
deductive way of learning, rather than explaining cold
grammar from the very beginning.
3. Session 1
1.- Text on 0 and 1st conditionals (15’)
Students should underline the conditional sentences and
then compare them with a fellow student.
2.- Grammar explanation (10’)
In a dynamic and deductive way.
3.- Multiple choice exercise (15’)
Students should be able to link two phrases of a
sentence in order to make them make sense
4.- “Complete the sentence” exercise (10’)
This exercise is useful to reinforce and to settle down the
new information.
4. Session 2
1.- Speaking about “The Fiddler on the Roof” (7’)
Students will be asked some questions about him and they will
provide answers in groups of 4 students.
2.- Video-listening (15’)
The song of “The Fiddler…”. They will
be asked some questions
about the content of the song.
3.- Grammar explanation (10’)
In a dynamic and deductive way.
4.- Listening: “If I were a boy” – Beyoncé (10’)
Fill in the gaps exercise.
5.- Writing and singing (13’)
In groups of 4 boys or 4 girls, they try to create new lyrics for an
specific part of the song. They try to write something about the
other sex, not in an offensive way at all. Something good or funny.
5. Session 3
1.- Warm-up activity (15’)
In groups of 4 students, they will try to establish the
grammatical rules of the conditionals. They will write
three sentence each and put them in common out
loud.
2.- Grammar (written and spoken) practice (20’)
With games.
3.- Test (15’)
This is not a final exam, just a test to check if the
students have learnt the conditionals.
