normal chairs and posters).
4. School description: Students in the classroom as I mentioned before are kids
and they like English a lot because of the relationship that they have with the
teacher, but in general terms they are low English speakers and they tend to
forget English vocabulary quickly.
With this blog students will acquire vocabulary to describe people, clothes
and places, by listening and watching videos from YouTube about people doing
descriptions and also from flashcards.
Methodologies:
The teacher uses a low level to work with the kids because of their level of English
but with this blog students will be working from a communicative perspective. At
the end of the course students will be able to describe people, clothes and places
using this blog. This blog will promote the use of technology as the principal
element for them to learn and to use English from a communicative and social
perspective.
