The texts suggested are: newspaper/magazines articles (they can also use online resources), recipes, coexistence agreements, sports regulations, etc. It is also profitable to work on listening resources such as songs, short videos, movie segments, dialogues.
They are prompted to express their own opinion towards the content of the texts.]]> 2018-03-02 10:38:00 UTC https://padlet.com/melisabarriosv/j59o3i24gx5i/wish/237338067 melisabarriosv https://padlet.com/melisabarriosv/j59o3i24gx5i/wish/237341571 Students work on the structure of the texts which they have been working with.

Then, students learn how to write simple critiques on the reading or listening material.]]> 2018-03-02 10:56:53 UTC https://padlet.com/melisabarriosv/j59o3i24gx5i/wish/237341571 melisabarriosv https://padlet.com/melisabarriosv/j59o3i24gx5i/wish/237343448 Students are guided to write their own pieces of work.
