This is a written report of a talk I gave to members of the SLB last month. There's quite a lot here; it's a bit "staccato" because it's based on the slides I used in the talk; and it doesn't do justice to Mike Long's version of TBLT. Good, positive start, eh! Both the syllabuses presented here are alternatives to… Via Shona Whyte, Javier Sánchez Bolado

Over the last few months I have been working hard to develop a set of commercially available lesson materials. These lesson plans aren't specifically designed for English language learners, though they will be useful for students at higher levels who want stimulating skills based practice or for any teacher interested in developing a CLIL or content based approach to language learning. They were designed to enable any teacher to develop students in a way that is more closely aligned to the kinds of skills they will need to function effectively and critically in the digital world.

Lesson plans and activities to help with literacy for all ages. This program is designed to focus on giving specific skills to a student studying literacy at all levels. The 10 lessons also give the teacher access to relevant information required when catering for a students needs.

Here we can see how technology can support the process of learning a language by exploring in different ways. Using some visual input and different activities, students are expected to develop spoken fluency, reading comprehension, critical thinking and use of English. This is what this article contains, ten lesson plans that teachers can buy in order to improve their classes with technology.

Using a "Three-Two-One" Speaking Activity Via Dr. Doris Molero
juandoming's insight:
Great idea..Paul Nation has developed the “4-3-2″ Fluency Activity With this exercise you have your students prepare a topic to talk about . Later students are asked to reduce the time in which they have to tell their topic. "In it, students line up (standing or sitting) facing each other. Each one must be prepared to speak on something that they are already quite familiar with. First, they speak to their partner for four minutes about the topic. Then, they move down the line, and say the same thing for three minutes. Next, they move and speak for two minutes. Then, the students on the other side do the same thing." Larry Ferlazzo and Katie Hull Sypnieski (The ESL/ELL Teacher's Survival Guide) propose the use of technology where students get the chance to write and record what they say. Giving them the chance to practice and listen to themselves. Finally they have to tell a partner without using what they wrote. Worth the try .. check it out!
