I. SISTEMA DE EVALUACIÓN Se realizarán 2 exámenes trimestrales, para los que se establecerá hora y día, y todos los controles de vocabulario, verbos, frases… oportunos. No olvides que la EVALUACIÓN ES CONTINUA, lo que implica que cada examen engloba todo lo estudiado desde el comienzo de curso hasta el momento del examen y cada examen sirve de recuperación del anterior. Puesto que la nota de exámenes es sólo el 70% de la calificación trimestral, ningún alumno podrá aprobar la asignatura SÓLO Y EXCLUSIVAMENTE CON EL ÚLTIMO EXAMEN. ¡Hay que trabajar desde el primer día! Los exámenes constarán de las siguientes partes:

→ Gramática y Vocabulario (Use of English) 40% → Comprensión del texto (Reading) 20% → Comprensión auditiva (Listening) 10% → Redacción (Writing) 20% → Expresión oral (Speaking) 10%

Recuerda que los EXÁMENES REPRESENTAN UN 70% DE TU NOTA FINAL Y EL 30% RESTANTE SE BASARÁ EN TU TRABAJO DE CLASE Y EN TU CUADERNO Y EN LA REALIZACIÓN DE TAREAS, PROYECTOS, LECTURAS Y REDACCIONES tal y como se muestra en la siguiente tabla:

Nivel 1º, 2º, 3º y 4º ESO. 100% repartido entre:

Exámenes: 70% Trabajo del alumno: 30 %

¿Sabes por qué es difícil aprender palabras en inglés?

1) Para un hispanohablante, la gran mayoría de las palabras en inglés son sonidos ininteligibles que no significan absolutamente nada. Si la palabra nueva te resulta familiar solo se puede deber a dos motivos: es una palabra de origen latino o la has escuchado en los medios de comunicación.

Recuerda: Dado que el inglés es un idioma de origen germánico, muy alejado del español, no se asimila un nuevo sonido hasta que no se repite unas diez, a veinte veces, hablando. Algunas palabras incluso tienen que llegar a repetirse unas cien veces para que se queden grabadas en la memoria.

2) Hay, al menos, dos tipos de vocabularios. El vocabulario del inglés hablado y el del inglés escrito. Esto quiere decir que hay palabras que lees pero que no se suelen usar en inglés hablado y palabras que escuchas pero que no se suelen escribir. Las palabras de inglés hablado son las más difíciles de aprender porque una gran mayoría no son de origen latino; son "phrasal verbs", o palabras de origen germánico.

Recuerda: Es mejor empezar aprendiendo el vocabulario del inglés hablado ya que será el que más vas a necesitar en el día a día.

3) El número de palabras que hay que aprender para hablar con cierta fluidez ronda las tres mil. Aprender tres mil palabras es difícil y toma tiempo, por tanto, necesitaremos determinación a prueba de fuego.

Recuerda: Para incrementar tu vocabulario, determinación a prueba de fuego; esto significa planificación y constancia.

4) Por cada palabra, hay que aprender "pronunciación" y "deletreo" (spelling). Si no sabes escribir una palabra, no importa demasiado porque siempre puedes buscarla en un diccionario, pero si no sabes pronunciarla realmente no sabes esa palabra.

Recuerda: Solo puedes decir que sabes una palabra si puedes pronunciarla y colocarla correctamente en una frase. Consejo: Búscate ahora mismo alguien para hablar.

¿Cómo superaremos todas estas barreras?

Sólo hay una manera: con mucha determinación y un buen método. Suponiendo que ya tenemos la determinación, veamos los métodos.

Una de las mejores maneras de aprender vocabulario es viendo películas en inglés con subtítulos. Ves la imagen, escuchas cómo suena y ves cómo se escribe.

Ni que decir tiene que otra fantástica manera de aprender vocabulario es cantando.

Otra buena fórmula es hablando. Cuando no sabes cómo decir algo, la necesidad de comunicarte te lleva a buscar las palabras que necesitas para expresarte. Así que piensa durante el día frases en español y piensa cómo las dirías en inglés. Si tienes dudas pregunta a un profesor.

Otra forma eficaz de incrementar tu vocabulario es leyendo. La gran ventaja de la lectura es que aprendes las nuevas palabras en un contexto determinado. La desventaja es que no sabes cómo suena la palabra. Por ello, la lectura debe combinarse siempre con prácticas de conversación. También son buenos los audio-books para leer y escuchar al mismo tiempo.

Por último, se aprende vocabulario estudiando y echando mano de todos los recursos que tenemos a mano: diccionarios, internet,trucos para memorizar, juegos, crucigramas (crosswords), el ahorcado (hangman), leyendo las noticias en inglés, etc

¿Cómo recordar vocabulario nuevo?

1. Traduciendo la palabra a tu idioma. Por ejemplo: coche – car (inglés).

2. Describiéndola en español. Por ejemplo: vehículo con motor y de cuatro ruedas para transportar personas.

3. Haciendo un dibujo.

4. Poniéndola en contexto. Por ejemplo: Mi coche se ha estropeado y tengo que llevarlo al taller.

5. Colocándola dentro de un grupo léxico. Por ejemplo: coche, camión, moto, etc.

In British English And is used before the last two figures (tens and units) of a number. 325: three hundred and twenty-five. 3,077: three thousand and seventy-seven. Note that in writing, commas (not a full stop) are used to separate thousands.

The words hundred, thousand and million can be used in the singular with a or an, but not alone. A is more common in an informal style. I want to live a hundred years. The journey took exactly one hundred days.

Simple fractions are expressed by using ordinal numbers ¾ : three fourths ¾ : one third

Decimal fractions are said with each figure separate.. we use a full stop, called “point”, not a comma, before the fraction. 0.5 : nought point five

The figure 0 is normally called nought in British English andZero in American English. When the numbers are said figure by figure 0 is often called /әu / like the letter O. My account number is 41326069 : four one three two six o .. In measurements, like temperature is called zero 0º : Zero degrees Centigrade.

Zero scores in team games are usually called nil. In tennis, table tennis , it is used the word love Manchester three; Liverpool nil Fifteen - love ; your service.

There are two ways of saying dates. Ordinal numbers are used. We write the preposition on with dates. 1 /08 /2009 : On the first of August / August the first… When dates are written the, of and often the ordinal ending (-th) are dropped. Years are usually said in two halves. 1986 : nineteen eighty-six To say the time we can use , digital numbers or time expressions : What’s the time? 12:15 . It’s twelve fifteen / It’s a quarter past twelve

In phone numbers we say each figure separately. 0 is called / әu /. And if a number is repeated we say double. 6532209 : six five three double two o nine.

Ordinal numbers are used for Kings and Queens. Henry VIII: Henry the Eighth

The singular of pence is penny. 1p : one penny Informal : one p / pi / 5p : five pence five p / pi / In sums with pounds, the letter p is dropped. £3.75 : Three pounds seventy-five

1. Addition 2+ 3 = 5 Two and three is / are five Two plus three is /equals five

2. Subtraction 7 - 4 = 3 Four from seven is / leaves three Seven minus four is /equals three

3. Multiplication 5 x 2 = 10 Five times two is / makes ten Five multiplied by two equals ten 4. Division 9 : 3 = 3 Nine divided by three equals three

English spelling often appears to be totally illogical. The following rules can help you to decode the mysteries of English spelling. But remember, even the best rules have their exceptions.

ADDING -ING/-ED

Spelling Rule Just add -ing or -ed to the end of the base verb:

work > working > worked, play > playing > played, open > opening > opened Exceptions:

If the base verb ends in: do this: and add: For example:

consonant + vowel + consonant and a stressed syllable

double the final consonant

-ing -ed

stop > stopping > stopped begin > beginning tap > tapping > tapped But, for example: open > opening > opened (because no stress on last syllable of open)

consonant + -e remove the -e -ing -ed

phone > phoning > phoned dance > dancing > danced make > making rake > raking > raked dye > dying > dyed

change the -ie to -y -ing lie > lying die > dying

-ie

nothing -d lie > lied die > died

ADDING -S

We add -s to words for two reasons: 1. to make plural nouns (boy > boys) 2. to form the 3rd person singular of the present simple tense (you work > he works)

Spelling Rule Just add -s to the end of the word, for example:

dog > dogs, play > plays, demand > demands Exceptions:

If the word ends in: do this: and add: For example:

-ch -s -sh -x -z

nothing -es church > churches mass > masses brush > brushes fax > faxes box > boxes chintz > chintzes

-f -fe

remove the -f or -fe -ves wife > wives calf > calves except: beliefs, chiefs, dwarfs, griefs, gulfs, proofs, roofs

consonant + -y remove the -y -ies spy > spies baby > babies

Note: words that end in -o normally just add s, except: buffalo > buffaloes ; cargoes (or cargos) ; domino > dominoes ; echo > echoes ; go > goes ; grotto > grottoeshalo > haloes ; hero > heroes ; mango > mangoes ; mosquito > mosquitoes ; motto > mottoes (or mottos) ; potato > potatoes ; tomato > tomatoes ; tornado > tornadoes ; torpedo > torpedoes ; veto > vetoes ; volcano > volcanoes

The purpose of a PowerPoint presentation is to support a spoken presentation.

• Don’t repeat what is written on the slides –explain what’s on the slide and add to it.

• The text on each slide should be written in point form –avoid full sentences.

• Every slide should have a title. • The background colour of your slide

should contrast with the font –do not use patterns with lots of colours.

• Your font size should not be smaller than 18 points, otherwise people at the back of the room won’t be able to read it.

• The best way to show statistics or trends is with a graph.

Create and present a PowerPoint presentation.
