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, and especially in two speaking activities about
pets. Listening is integrated through a song and the teacher´s instructions and questions, in L2
all the time. Writing is integrated when the students have to write fact files about different
pets.
· Materials and resources: computer, internet connection, TV, speaker, copies for the
students
· Pedagogical use of ICT in class or at home: the students watch a video at the
presentation stage. A blog was created to work at home and do homework.
· Seating arrangement: Three big tables in the English classroom are fixed to the
floor. The students sit around them.
· Possible problems / difficulties and possible solutions during the class: in case
there wasn´t internet connection, I would use internet from my mobile phone. If it
didn´t work, I would sing and use the whiteboard to present the topics.
The students may get distracted or not pay attention at some point in the class. If
that happened, I would say: ´1, 2, 3, eyes on me!´
· Assessment: what will be assessed and how: the students´ pronunciation, listening
and speaking will be assessed by singing songs and getting the students to talk about
their pets; grammar and vocabulary will be assessed through writing activities and
games.
