Icesi / English / Level Ii / Brochure Place Of The City
Descripción
Through this project, the students integrate their writing, reading, research, grammar and vocabulary skills in a single final result that is a brochure that presents a place in their city.
With paragraph-by-paragraph writing, students learn to develop an article and use the vocabulary in context while making evident the grammatical theme have learnt.
With the reading of the finished articles and an additional activity to check the effectiveness of the reading, the students learn to focus their attention on the important points of each article, since they have done something similar.
With the surveys, they are forced to practice their English with other people and to take it out of classrooms.
With the brochure, they condense all what they have learnt into a product.
