Proyecto de prevención y atención de desastres

En el siguiente link podran encontrar las diapositivas para preparar las carteleras para el proyecto.

Ustedes ya estan divididos por grupos. Tengan encuenta la informacion que van a trasmitir. (Un niño de jardín no necesita saber que si tiene tacones hay que quitarselos)

Discutan la información con sus compañeros para que quede aprendida y no necesiten leer tanto.

Instrucciones para Recuperar

Happy holidays!!!

En esta ocasión les comparto una serie de instrucciones para poder entender las preguntas y los textos que aparecerán en la recuperación.  Para ello es muy importante realizar rigurosamente los pasos propuestos, recuerden que el truco para aprender vocabulario es buscar una y otra vez la palabra en el diccionario NO EN EL TRADUCTOR.  Además, si aprenden vocabulario, podrán entender cualquier texto que se les presente el examen del ICFES.

Link para que descargen el cuento de la cenicienta: 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/mb61zpw41nms6tk/Cinderella.pdf?dl=0

Pasos para leer el cuento.

1)      Leo el titulo

2)      Miro la imágenes

3)      Resalto o subrayo todo el vocabulario desconocido.

4)      Realizo un glosario con las palabras desconocidas y busco sus equivalencias en español. Recomiendo usar un diccionario físico o utilizar el siguiente diccionario online http://www.wordreference.com/   . Por nada del mundo use google traslator,  ¡SEA HONESTO!

5)      Luego que ya no hay dudas sobre el vocabulario, lea detenidamente  el cuento y trate de entender lo que pasa. Léalo las veces que considere necesario.

6)      Realice los ejercicios de la página 20 y 21 del cuento. (Están al final del cuento.)

Además del cuento de la cenicienta y  los quizzes que se hicieron en clase, se trabajó el siguiente vocabulario:

Can  -could - be able to  son palabras que expresan habilidad, para entender su uso, sigan este link: http://menuaingles.blogspot.com/2009/05/can-could-y-be-able-usos.html

Can – could- be able to  y ahora may expresan  permisos.  Revisen este link http://www.ejerciciodeingles.com/verbos-modales-habilidad-permiso-can-be-able-to-could-may/

Be allowed to también expresa permiso  miren estos links: http://www.clasesaprenderingles.com/modales-could-and-be-allowed-to/

http://www.selvaingles.com/can-y-could-verbos-modales/

Les recomiendo practicar los ejercicios de cada link. 

La recuperación será similar a la evaluación.   Léanlo con honestidad,  hagan los ejercicios propuestos en cada link y realicen sus glosarios. El uso del diccionario aún no está contemplado, no obstante llévenlo.  

Pueden escribir sus preguntas en la parte de abajo del blog donde dice no comments y comentan :) . 

Until next time!!!
