2. · Teaching approach or combination of methods / approaches:
Τhis plan follows the PPP (Presentation, practice, production) approach, which is integrated
with a CLIL (content and language integrated learning) approach, because the students learn
the topics in a coherent and meaningful context.
· Integration of skills: What skills will be integrated and how?
Speaking is integrated constantly in the class, through role-plays or Q&A exercises. Listening is
integrated through a song and the teacher´s instructions and questions, in L2 all the time.
Reading is integrated through reading comprehension.
· Materials and resources: computer, speaker, copies for the students.
· Pedagogical use of ICT in class or at home: the students listen to a song and match
some verbs with pictures in a PPT slide. A blog was created to work at home and do
homework.
· Seating arrangement: the students sit on two people desks.
· Possible problems / difficulties and possible solutions during the class: I will
download videos before the class because there isn´t internet connection. If my computer
doesn´t work, I will use the board. Another problem in this class and school is the students´
lack of attendance. The warm-up and revision are very important at the beginning of the
lesson, as well as the blog to practise at home if they cannot attend the lessons.
· Assessment: what will be assessed and how: the students´ pronunciation, listening
and speaking will be assessed through songs and getting the students to talk to each other;
grammar and vocabulary will be assessed through writing activities and games.

"Black Or White" LYRICS
I took my baby on a Saturday bang
"Boy, is that girl with you?"
Yes, we're one and the same
Now I believe in miracles
And a miracle has happened tonight
But if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
They print my message in the Saturday Sun
I had to tell them I ain't second to none
And I told about equality
And it's true
Either you're wrong or you're right
But if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this stuff
I am tired of this business
So when the going gets rough
I ain't scared of your brother
I ain't scared of no sheets
I ain't scare of nobody
Girl, when the goin' gets mean
[L. T. B. rap performance]
Protection for gangs, clubs and nations
Causing grief in human relations
It's a turf war on a global scale
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, it's not about races
Just places
Faces
Where your blood comes from
Is where your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not going to spend my life being a color
[Michael]
Don't tell me you agree with me
When I saw you kicking dirt in my eye
But if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I said if you're thinkin' of being my baby
It don't matter if you're black or white
I said if you're thinkin' of being my brother
It don't matter if you're black or white
Ooh, ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, now
Ooh, ooh
4. Yeah, yeah, yeah, now
[2x]
It's black, it's white
It's tough for you to get by
It's black, it's white, woo

complete it with verbs in the PAST SIMPLE. Then, they listen to the song
again and check (when Michael starts singing, from 2.30´ to 3.48´) (5´).
