This document outlines an English learning program that uses the television show "Aprende Inglés TV" hosted by Richard Vaugham. The objectives are to learn school-related vocabulary and communicative functions. Each day, students watch a 30-minute episode at home and submit a summary the next day. In class, they discuss the new vocabulary, grammar, and main characters/locations from the episode. Students then perform their own short episodes in groups to practice what they learned. Their work is evaluated based on classroom participation, assignments, and group performances.
