Our class is Nivel Básico 1 (A1) so most of the activities will be oriented to this level. Nevertheless, I'll include other levels if necessary.
To start with, let's see what level you have because maybe there are students with some knowledge (conocimientos) of English but remember we're going to start from the beginning.
To check your real level, you try to do these tests:Remember all these placement tests are for ALL the levels so you can't do it very well because it's not just for beginners or elementary students. Besides (además) they are only based on grammar and vocabulary, but they don't include productive parts such as oral and writing skills.
Before starting with our virtual class, let's use the blog as a guide for your homework. For next week, I'd like you to do these exercises:
- The Alphabet: here you have a link with the alphabet, its pronunciation and some words to practise spelling- click here. But let's see some difficulties:
- The pronunciation of vowels: this is a long video but very practical so click here and try to practise with it saying the words after the teacher.
- In class, we saw this chart:
The Alphabet
TH /θ/ or /ð/ SH /ʃ/ CH /tʃ/
- Numbers: here you are a video for the pronunciation or this one. There are 3 groups:
- from 1 to 12 click here
- how to distinguish between 13 and 30: click here
- from 1 to 100 (American accent): click here
- Vocabulary of the class: things you can find in your class. To practise with this vocabulary, click here or here. Use the words for practising spelling.
- Unisn songs to learn English: to listen to songs in English is very useful. You can start with easy ones and then go on with more difficult ones, especially if they are your favourite ones!
