 TASK DESIGN PROJECT
 LUZ ADRIANA SOLANO B
 2010
The Colombus American School is a bilingual private institution located
in Rivera. It has 367 students, from primary and secondary.


This task project was applied with
children from first grade.

Language level: false beginners

Skills: reading, speaking and writing

Hours: 4

Numer of students: 25
I work with students from first
grade. I am a home room
teacher in charge of 25
students.

My students range in ages
between 6 and 7 years old. They
belong to a high socio economical
status. Most of them have had
the opportunity to travel abroad
or take english courses after
school.
I have been teaching at this school for two years in first grade,
which has given me a lot experience to see the importance of
introducing children to literacy at an early age, so learners can
learn more about vocabulary, reinforce their reading
comprehension, get the identification of important events,
sequences and improve the other language skills.

Based on my experience and knowing the english level of the
school I decided to guide this task to use content based reading
and applied word recognition exercises and reading aloud
strategies in order to improve the reading comprehesion of my
students.
• To improve the reading comprehension of
the students in first grade by using
content based reading


•To apply reading aloud strategies
and word recognition exercises to
promote the reading comprehension.
