Teaching Approach: Communicative Approach.

Integration of Skills: the reading and speaking skills are integrated through the magazine article which will be used to foster interaction among students and with the teacher.

Pedagogical use of ICT in class: there is no use of the technology since the school hasn´t got the facilities to do that.

Materials: worksheets with exercises for each student, board, marker and flashcards related to the topic.

Seating arrangement: depending on the type of activity, the Ss will be sitting in pairs in order to feel comfortable.

Cooperative work: working in groups may help the students better

interact and communicate with one each other in order to exchange ideas and opinions.

Possible problems and possible solutions: the most important problem could be timing. It is very difficult to calculate the time for each activity since each group is different and works at a different pace. Perhaps, if there are students who finish early, the teacher can give them any other dynamic activity or game up to the moment the rest could finish their tasks.

Assessment: The assessment will be focused on observation in order to gather information about the development of language skills

big and beautiful. The park and the zoo are very near and they are
