In the activity below the aim
is to create a need to learn and use language. The tasks will generate their own
language and create an opportunity for language acquisition.The project is organized
in the following way:
Pre-task
activity : an introduction to the topic “SEASONS”
Task
cycle:
Task 1 Each student draws 4 different pictures representing the impact of the four seasons to
them. Task 2 A board for each season includes all
different perspectives. Task 3 Report ideas (Language Focus and Feedback), add perspectives, share information or experiences
-“I always make a snowman with my best friend George.”
- “My family and
I usually go to the beach and have fun. Sometimes we go to my grandparents’
village.”
- “We never go to the sea, I don’t know
how to swim.”
A balance is
extremely important to be kept between fluency,
which is what the task provides, and accuracy,
which is provided by task feedback.
