INTRODUO
O Caderno de Apoio ao Professor pretende assumir-se como uma ferramenta indispensvel no dia-a-dia de programao e concretizao das aulas de lngua inglesa. Deste modo, optou-se por dividir este documento em partes distintas: 1. Planificao do processo de ensino-aprendizagem Nesta seco, optou-se por incluir diversas planificaes que pretendem dar resposta s necessidades distintas dos professores: Planificao anual A proposta de planificao anual apresentada pelo projecto Profile contm a indicao das competncias/tarefas e contedos lingusticos e temticos a desenvolver em cada unidade. As unidades encontram-se distribudas no tempo, tendo-se igualmente integrado a celebrao de algumas festividades, bem como o projecto de leitura a partir da short-story Betting on Friendship. Paralelamente, esta planificao a longo prazo enumera as estratgias, os instrumentos e o tipo de avaliao a desenvolver ao longo do ano. Tentou-se apresentar uma proposta de planificao o mais completa possvel e adequada s orientaes programticas e ao Currculo Nacional do Ensino Bsico, para que o professor a possa utilizar, no s para planificar as suas aulas, mas tambm em sede de Projecto Curricular de Turma. Planificao a mdio prazo Optou-se por incluir um exemplo de planificao de unidade (Unidade 0), estando as restantes disponveis online, na rea Exclusiva do Professor, no incio do ano lectivo. Nestas, para alm de se descriminarem as competncias dominantes a desenvolver em cada situao, as tarefas, os projectos, os contedos, as formas sociais de trabalho, os materiais e a avaliao, procurou-se integrar as diversas valncias do projecto, tais como: transparncias, Portfolio, CDs udio, DVD, Workbook e Leitura Extensiva. Planificao a curto prazo Aulas de substituio Em consequncia das recentes alteraes decorrentes da reviso do Estatuto da Carreira Docente, entre outros, constitui um dever do professor entregar um plano de aula no Conselho Executivo sempre que pretende faltar. Esta obrigatoriedade , por vezes, constrangedora, face s inmeras solicitaes a que o professor tem de responder, por um lado, e, por outro, ao desconhecimento de quem o ir substituir. Perante estas dificuldades, o Profile apresenta propostas para dez planificaes de aulas de substituio, tendo-se optado por apresentar duas por unidade, ou seja, uma por cada rea temtica abordada em cada unidade. Estas planificaes, para alm de descreverem os pressupostos (com indicao do ponto de situao da turma) encontram-se pensadas para aulas de 90 minutos, com indicao de uma tarefa especfica a desenvolver e dos diversos passos para a sua concretizao. Paralelamente, sempre que necessrio, criaram-se duas situaes: Situao A quando o professor substituto tambm lecciona Ingls; Situao B quando o professor substituto no lecciona Ingls. As planificaes so descritivas e com a indicao de todos os passos e materiais a utilizar.

2 . Concretizao do processo ensino-aprendizagem Nesta seco, incluem-se: sugestes e orientaes metodolgicas diversas, para alm das j fornecidas no Manual do Professor; actividades complementares; guies de trabalho de projecto; guies de trabalho referentes Leitura Extensiva Betting on Friendship; guies de trabalho referentes ao DVD; guio de utilizao das transparncias; tapescripts, quer dos CDs udio, quer do DVD. 3. Regulao do processo ensino-aprendizagem Esta seco contm duas ordens de documentos: Testes de avaliao Inclui-se dois por unidade, sendo o teste A sempre mais fcil, isto , destinado a alunos com adaptaes curriculares ou currculo prprio com condies especiais de avaliao, e o teste B com exerccios com um grau de dificuldade adequado ao nvel de aprendizagem do aluno mdio. Inclui-se, tambm, nos testes, a componente de compreenso do oral Listening uma vez por perodo. Nestes casos, o professor poder ler o texto em voz alta, ou utilizar o CD do professor para o efeito. My Class Portfolio Pretende ser um instrumento valioso para o professor, ajudando-o a planificar e a regular o processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Neste sentido, composto por: uma srie de grelhas de registo simples e eficazes de cada um dos documentos preenchidos pelo aluno, permitindo o acesso ao retrato fiel da sua turma, sempre actualizado; documentos de apoio regulao dos alunos e agilizao de processos; grelha de controlo dos trabalhos de projecto; grelha de observao peridica por competncias transversais e especficas; matriz base para os testes de avaliao; grelha de correco de testes de avaliao; grfico de resultados obtidos. Tendo em conta a complexidade de todo o processo de ensino e aprendizagem, esperamos que o professor encontre neste Caderno de Apoio um verdadeiro suporte para a sua prtica lectiva. As autoras

O PROJECTO PROFILE
1. Manual
O Profile composto por cinco Files (unidades) incidentes sobre temticas especficas frias e regresso s aulas; tempos livres e novas tecnologias; hbitos alimentares; moda e mass media. O primeiro File Reloading File tal como o prprio nome indica, visa (re)ambientar o aluno no processo de aprendizagem da lngua inglesa, servindo, igualmente, para fazer o diagnstico da turma nos diversos domnios. Nesta medida, optou-se por lhe dar a designao de 0. Cada File, por sua vez, encontra-se organizado por competncias.
Comprehension File
Integra uma multiplicidade de tipologias de textos autnticos, provenientes de fontes diversificadas e de diferentes universos de expresso inglesa, com temticas actuais, adequadas ao Programa, aos interesses dos vrios tipos de alunos e ao seu nvel etrio. Nesta medida, esta abordagem pedaggica integra sempre trs momentos: Preparao, isto , actividades de pre-reading ou pre-listening, que permitem aos alunos mobilizar as competncias e conhecimentos prvios ao nvel cognitivo, lingustico, discursivo e sociocultural, pertinentes para a tarefa a realizar. Desenvolvimento, isto , actividades de reading ou listening, que permitem a utilizao contextualizada das competncias e dos conhecimentos activados previamente. Avaliao, isto , actividades de post-reading ou post-listening, que permitem a regulao dos processos de interpretao de texto.
Interaction File
A especificidade da competncia de interaco foi, durante muito tempo, ignorada no contexto do ensino/aprendizagem da Lngua Estrangeira. Interagir verbalmente com o outro pressupe conhecer e respeitar regras bsicas de comunicao, por vezes comuns s da lngua materna, mas condicionadas pela especificidade das caractersticas discursivas, bem como pelas convenes socioculturais da lngua em estudo. Neste mbito, esta competncia assume particular relevo, dado que o discurso que se produz em interaco decorre de uma co-construo de parceiros em comunicao, cujo sucesso depende da sua capacidade de cooperao, assente em valores como partilha e negociao (conversas, entrevistas, role plays, cartas, postais, e-mails, bilhetes, formulrios, entre outros).
Production File
O Profile introduz as actividades de escrita e de fala de forma gradual e contextualizada, procurando que o aluno desenvolva a competncia de produzir (escrever/falar) correcta e adequadamente, em paralelo com a competncia de compreender (ouvir/ver/ler). Promove, desta forma, a par de uma progresso integrada das competncias, uma pedagogia da escrita e da fala, atravs da qual o aluno desenvolver estratgias pessoais de comunicao que lhes permitiro produzir textos adequados. As actividades de reviso e avaliao so, assim, essenciais para o desenvolvimento desta 4
2007
competncia, exigindo uma releitura e uma avaliao em funo da situao e da coerncia/coeso semntica e lingustica. Esta fase realizada individualmente ou em grupo, com a ajuda de grelhas e de pistas constantes no My English Portfolio, sob a superviso do professor.
Ability to Learn
1. Language Study File
Esta rubrica tem como finalidade levar o aprendente a tomar conscincia de que a lngua um conjunto estruturado com vrios planos interdependentes: intenes de comunicao, marcas morfolgicas e sintcticas e lxico, entre outros, pelo que o Language Study File integra: A gramtica, orientada para auxiliar o aluno a comunicar em ingls, quer oralmente, quer por escrito, sendo desenvolvida em diversas etapas: a) Etapa de observao e sensibilizao, em que o aluno toma contacto com a estrutura em contexto. b) Etapa de treino e formulao de regras provisrias, em que o aluno levado a aperceber-se, atravs de exerccios sistemticos, dos usos da estrutura em anlise. c) Etapa de estruturao, em que, atravs da criao de momentos de reflexo propiciadores de hbitos de anlise do funcionamento da lngua, o aluno toma conscincia da regra. d) Etapa da sntese/avaliao, em que o aluno levado a integrar a estrutura em actividades de gramtica e de produo. Paralelamente aplicao da denominada pedagogia da descoberta, o Profile pretende, ainda, fomentar hbitos de consulta de gramticas, atravs de remisses constantes para o Grammar File que surge no Portfolio. O vocabulrio, componente fundamental na aprendizagem de uma lngua, na medida em que a sua aquisio e memorizao condiciona, de alguma forma, o sucesso da comunicao. Para que o aluno compreenda que as palavras no aparecem isoladas, o Profile apresenta o vocabulrio novo em ncleos contextualizados, que vo sendo progressivamente alargados. Desta forma, recorre-se a vrias tcnicas para transmitir o significado das palavras novas: Clarificao do significado atravs de imagens e de desenhos do prprio objecto. Sinonmia e antonmia. Definio simples. Traduo. As funes da linguagem, que se inserem em situaes de comunicao, privilegiando-se a interaco, de forma a desenvolver no aluno uma competncia pragmtica em Lngua Estrangeira. A progresso na aprendizagem do Ingls organiza-se, assim, no sentido de construir uma competncia discursiva elementar, articulando as funes da linguagem com os vrios gneros textuais.
2. Leisure File
Trata-se de uma rubrica com uma dupla finalidade. Por um lado, pretende tornar o processo de aprendizagem da Lngua Inglesa mais motivante e, por outro, pretende, de forma ldica, actuar em reas consideradas importantes no processo de ensino-aprendizagem, como por exemplo: A articulao dos saberes de forma autnoma. O reforo da ateno/concentrao. A promoo de actividades de pesquisa, entre outras. No final de cada unidade, surge sempre um jogo, The Strongest Group, que tem como objectivo levar o aluno a reflectir sobre a sua aprendizagem e a preparar-se para os testes.

3. Fact File
O ensino da lngua no pode ser dissociado dos aspectos socioculturais que caracterizam e organizam qualquer situao de comunicao. Nesta medida, o Profile inclui pequenos Fact Files sobre aspectos socioculturais relevantes para a temtica em estudo, sendo estes apresentados de forma simples e agradvel, seguidos de uma pequena actividade ldica. No desenvolvimento desta competncia especfica, saber aprender, o Profile apresenta uma srie de recursos que pretendem contribuir para que o aluno desenvolva estratgias de:

O Profile, no final de cada unidade, prope a realizao de um projecto capaz de mobilizar todas as aprendizagens efectuadas, pelo que a proposta efectuada dinmica e adequada a cada aluno. So apresentadas trs propostas, num fluxograma de deciso, cabendo ao aluno, com o auxlio do professor, a escolha do projecto que melhor se adequa ao seu perfil, a partir das decises tomadas nos diversos patamares do fluxograma. Paralelamente, existe, ainda, uma quarta possibilidade, Your own suggestion, em que o aluno poder construir o seu prprio guio de trabalho de projecto. Os projectos A e B so pensados para alunos com um bom desempenho lingustico e cujo percurso de aprendizagem caminha no sentido da autonomia. O projecto C menos ambicioso, mas igualmente integrador. De qualquer forma, dado que as preferncias dos alunos, em termos dos seus interesses, condicionam as suas escolhas, ser interessante a formao heterognea dos grupos e a observao da dinmica a empreender. Aps a tomada de deciso, alunos e professor podem escrever os nomes dos elementos de cada grupo neste File.

5. Self-Check File
Surge no final de cada unidade, oferecendo um conjunto de exerccios incidentes sobre Language Study que o aluno pode realizar de forma autnoma, a fim de tomar conscincia das componentes que ainda precisa de melhorar. Neste mbito, atribui-se uma cotao a cada questo, sendo o score final indicador da situao do aluno, em termos de Language Study.
2. Workbook
O Workbook visa consolidar os conhecimentos dos alunos acerca da Lngua Inglesa e, simultaneamente, desenvolver a sua autonomia enquanto aprendentes. As actividades propostas esto directamente ligadas aos cinco Files que estruturam o Manual, sendo a abordagem preconizada dirigida para a resoluo de dificuldades de aprendizagem. Por outras palavras, procura-se, atravs da apresentao de diversos Improving Files, responder a problemas de aprendizagem, tanto ao nvel do saber, como do saber-fazer comunicativo e estratgico. Desta forma, no final de cada tarefa e unidade, o aluno levado a reflectir, no Portfolio, sobre as suas dificuldades, optando pelo Improving File do Workbook condizente. As actividades, por sua vez, encontram-se estruturadas em dois nveis de dificuldade. Esta gesto favorece prticas de pedagogia diferenciada e assenta na negociao das tarefas, estando a orientao do professor subordinada s necessidades efectivas dos alunos, ajudando-os a seleccionar, entre os diversos Improving Files, o que melhor se lhe adequa para a consolidao das aprendizagens.
4. My English Portfolio
Para que o aluno desenvolva hbitos de interveno consciente no seu processo de aprendizagem, designadamente estratgias pessoais de auto-avaliao, o Profile concebeu o My English Portfolio, que aposta na promoo da autonomizao do aluno como condio indispensvel para a obteno de sucesso nas suas aprendizagens lingusticas. Trata-se de um dispositivo formador que, ao levar o aluno a uma reflexo sistemtica sobre o seu percurso de aprendizagem, lhe permite: Registar as suas experincias de mbito lingustico mais relevantes, vividas em contexto escolar ou fora dele. Planificar o seu estudo e modos de aprendizagem. Descobrir potencialidades e fragilidades e aprender a super-las. Auto-analisar criticamente o seu nvel de desempenho lingustico e estabelecer novas metas de aprendizagem. Seleccionar diversos trabalhos representativos do seu percurso de aprendizagem. Neste mbito, o My English Portfolio encontra-se, tambm, dividido em Files:
Seces Indicaes Itens que o aluno deve preencher no incio do ano e que serviro de base para a anlise do perfil da turma, a ser utilizado para a construo do Projecto Curricular de Turma. Itens que o aluno deve preencher ao longo da abordagem das diferentes unidades.
Portrait File
Saved Files: Trabalhos seleccionados pelo aluno com o auxlio do professor. O nmero de trabalhos deve ser alvo de negociao entre o professor e os alunos. Deleted Files: Trabalhos que o aluno no considera representativos do seu desempenho. File que integra pelo menos dois jogos por unidade, tendo estes a funo de aprofundar conhecimentos culturais, lingusticos e/ou cvicos acerca das temticas abordadas. Desta forma, os alunos podero aprender brincando, de forma autnoma ou na aula, consoante a indicao do professor.
Separata que procura dar resposta s necessidades do aluno, em termos de funcionamento da lngua. Nesta medida, encontra-se dividido em: Grammar File que visa: Apoiar e esclarecer as dvidas do aluno acerca do funcionamento da lngua. Permitir a descodificao da linguagem gramatical e favorecer a aplicao ou a transposio das estruturas em situaes de comunicao. Vocabulary File, em que os alunos so levados a pesquisar, no Manual, dicionrio ou outros recursos, o significado dos vocbulos que se encontram agrupados por temticas, construindo o seu glossrio. O Vocabulary File tem como propsito ajudar os alunos a: Organizar o seu vocabulrio em contextos significativos. Praticar, aprender e memorizar o vocabulrio. Utilizar dicionrios. File que permite que os erros cometidos pelo aluno, ao longo da unidade, sejam utilizados como fonte de aprendizagem, levando-o a reflectir sobre as suas produes e a desenvolver a capacidade de correco, na crena de que uma correcta pedagogia do erro constitui um importante contributo para reduzir os possveis factores de inibio dos aprendentes.

GRAHAM (off): I really would like a new guitar. However just now I cant afford one, because my parents give me 50 pounds a month allowance. I have to buy everything with this, so sadly theres no money left over. MUM: Graham! Time to go! GRAHAM: Yeah! Im just going Mum, itll be two seconds! GRAHAM (off): In the summer holidays I hope to take a job so that I can earn more money, and I finally will be able to buy my new guitar. GRAHAM: Yeah, Im on my way! GRAHAM IN (off): Just now Ive got to rush off. Ive got football training in ten minutes. COACH MacKAY: Were going to have a just a warm up session without the ball, then a warm up session with the ball followed by a practice game. This way Safe stepping Go! GRAHAM (off): Well, Ive not played football for that long, because I used to play more rugby. Now Im really enjoying my football, though. I think one of the reasons I like it, is because its a challenge of a different sport. I also play in a good team with a good coach, and that always makes it more fun. COACH MacKAY: My name is Allan MacKay. Im deputy head teacher in Millburn Academy, and I also coach the senior football team. The boys mostly play for clubs in the town and enjoy their school football to such a degree that weve been very successful this year, second in Highland region. Graham has joined the team late in the season. Hes a very good rugby player and hockey player and this has given him excellent fitness and hes been a great asset to the team in the second half of the season. GAELIC BOY: /speaking Gaelic/ GAELIC GIRL: /speaking Gaelic/ GAELIC BOY: /speaking Gaelic/ GRAHAM: Hi! How are you? GAELIC GIRL: /speaking Gaelic/ GAELIC BOY: /speaking Gaelic/ GRAHAM: Come on! You both know that I dont speak Gaelic. What were you saying about me? GAELIC BOY: Sorry, we were just saying how good you were on the field today. GAELIC GIRL: (Yeah, you were) GRAHAM: Thats very kind of you! I bet its not true, though. GAELIC BOY: So, see you tomorrow then? GRAHAM: Oh, I cant! Ive got a Youth Voice meeting tomorrow. But Ill see you on Thursday. GAELIC BOY: OK! Cheerie. GAELIC GIRL: /speaking Gaelic/ GAELIC BOY: /speaking Gaelic/ GAELIC GIRL: /speaking Gaelic/ GAELIC BOY: /speaking Gaelic/ GRAHAM (off): Im a member of the Highland Youth Voice. Youth Voice is a parliament of 70 young people from throughout the north of Scotland. We meet and we discuss a number of topics. Weve recently succeeded in producing an alcohol awareness leaflet and a video on the dangers of drugs. Our next project is to develop a card, which will allow young people cheaper transport in the Highlands. We know that well be successful, because we know people listen to us. We have large debates on our website and last month we met the First Minister of Scotland. GRAHAM: He understood that young people would listen better to other young people. And really thats what Young Voice is all about: Its by young people, for young people. GRAHAM: Well, I thought I could introduce my family to you. This is Kirsty, shes 15 KIRSTY: Hey! GRAHAM: and shes really still the baby in the family, because of all five of us shes the smallest. And right here weve got my mum, Fiona MUM: Hi! GRAHAM: and people say we look like each other, but Ill let you decide that for yourselves. And this is my dad, David DAD: Hello! GRAHAM: and hes losing his hair even faster than usual at the moment, because in a couple of weeks hes going to have to teach me how to drive. And he doesnt seem too happy about the idea of getting in a car with me. And last but not least is Catherine CATHERINE: Hi! GRAHAM: whos 12 years old, and shes the troublemaker of the family at the minute. Andshes always got a cheeky smile on her face. MUM: With five of us in the family life is really very busy. Tonight everybody is here helping me in the kitchen prepare the meal. We usually have a rule that if you help to prepare the meal, you dont have to help clear up. Graham likes to help prepare the meal because

2007
then he can sneak out of the door, and pretend that hes doing his homework, but really I suspect hes watching TV. If he doesnt help me prepare the meal, then he comes and helps to clear up afterwards. GRAHAM: We thought that you might like to listen to some Scottish music. This is a traditional song called Westering Home. We dont play together very often, but I hope youll enjoy it all the same. GRAHAM (off): Now Im going to tell you about some traditional Scottish things, which I think you may be interested in. GRAHAM: As you can see, Im wearing a different kilt. This is because each family belongs to a clan and the clans have different tartans that they can wear. This is the different tartan, which I was wearing before. This is called the Royal Stewart tartan and is one of the tartans that I can wear for my clan. You might also notice that Ive changed my sporran. Sporrans are more for decoration than anything else, but you can carry your own money and a wallet and keys and things like that. Something else thats part of the Highland dress is the sgian-dubh. This is a knife that you wear in your sock. I would show it to you, but if I drew the blade, then I would have to draw blood because its tradition. DAD: I think Scottish traditional music has a lot in common with the whole Celtic music tradition. We particularly like it for dancing and partying. The bagpipes, which Ive been playing, are very difficult to play with any other instrument. Within the family we do try to play together. Graham still likes playing rock guitar but has surprised himself by finding how easy it is to play in the rhythm backing with us and the family group. GRAHAM (off): Something you might not be so familiar with, though, is the Highland Games. In Inverness we have a large Highland Games over a whole weekend every summer. The Highland Games is an event with a number of sports, dancing and music. GRAHAM: In the future Id like to go to Newcastle University to study medicine. Id like to become a doctor. GRAHAM (off): I hope youve enjoyed learning about traditional Scottish culture and lifestyles. I also hope that one day youll come and visit this wonderful country for yourself.. GRAHAM: Anyway, goodbye for now.
NAELA IN BRISTOL
NAELA (off): This is Bristol. Its a fairly large and busy city on the Bristol Channel, not far from Wales. The suspension bridge is famous and so is the old cathedral. We live in a mixed area not far from the city centre. I like my area very much and Ive lived here for nearly ten years now, and the people here are so nice and friendly. NAELA: Hello! Im Naela and Im here today at the Climbing Centre near to where I live. This used to be a church but eleven years ago it was sold and converted into the Climbing Centre. Today it has over 40 000 members, and people from just about everywhere come here to climb. Im a beginner but Im here today to practise my climbing. INSTRUCTOR: Right. Go up! NAELA: No, I cant go any further up. INSTRUCTOR: Yeah! Hold on NAELA: No, I cant. INSTRUCTOR: Thats it! You can! Stand up Go off Now you climb down. See?

My mums called Anna and is very caring. My sister Lanie is an angel and so is my little sister Daisy. We get along very well and love each other very much.

DAISY: They were about that big! NAELA (off): I am dyslexic, which means I have great trouble in learning to read and write. NAELA: It was very hard for me at school as a young child, because everyone else was learning so fast, and I got left behind. When my mum told me she wanted me to go to a special school for dyslexic children, I was sad to leave my friends and the school I was used to. But I thought it might help me and make everything easier and that was good. I really liked the dyslexia school because everyone around me had the same problem as me, and so I felt comfortable and I wasnt afraid to ask for help. Now everything is much easier for me. I keep a diary every day, I write poetry and sometimes my own stories. I also help my sister Lanie with her homework because she is also dyslexic. NAELA: Did you have a good day at school today, Lanie? LANIE: Yeah. NAELA: What did you do? LANIE: Religious Education and Geography.

KAI: Im going down to Cornwall for two weeks with Sean and my other friend, Tasha, and were going to be like surfing and probably just go out to the beaches and stuff, which will be quite cool.

NAELA: My friends from college and theyre 16, 17 and theres four of them Oh, no, five of us! Yes! I dont know FREYA: Youre so lucky! NAELA: One of my main interests is interior design.

Va, va, va, va, va, va, va, va, va THE GIRLS: Va, va, va, va, va, va TEACHER (off): I started Studio Seven two years ago and the reason for this was to develop young children in the community into professional artists, and build up their confidence and explore their creativity. I have also, theone of the main things I think is important is that thethe Studio Seven membership isis relatively cheap because the kids in the community cant afford to go toa professional stage school, they just dont have the funds. So here we only charge five pound a session. We run two sessions, ones on the Tuesday and the other ones on the Thursday, from five thirty to eight thirty. And my ultimate goal as a professional artist myself, is to pass on my knowledge and develop these children, so that they can go into the entertainment world if they wish to do so. EVERYONE: Let it shine, let it shine TEACHER: And again TEACHER: Naela is one of my students. Shes one of my older students. Shes developing quite well. She The confidence is a little bit low at the moment, but thats what were developing now. Her vocal skills are quite excellent. TEACHER: OK, one more time please, Naela.

Then theres my sister Martha. She comes to me for advice about make-up and clothes. And, of course, theres my brother Park. He is very spoilt by my parents but not by me.

I know I had it yesterday! I was coming downtown, I went into the shop I came out. I know I had my purse, because I checked and it was there. And now its going to be God! TEACHER: Thats excellent, Risn! Could you use that characterisation in your exercise with Frank later on today? RISN: Yeah, sure. TEACHER: Great! TEACHER: In this scene let you be the employer RISN: OK. TEACHER: and youll be the employee. And initially you play it with a high status. RISN: OK. TEACHER: Initially, play it with a low status.

-Something else you might not have seen before is black pudding. This is a traditional Scottish delicacy. -And it is made from sheep bits and its soaked in the blood of the sheep. Obviously it wouldnt be a fry-up without eggs and tomato. -The first thing Ive got to do is to turn the heat on for the frying pan. -And now what Im going to do, is stab the sausages, because otherwise theyll burst open, down here, when they go in the heat. -Im doing the sausages first because they take the longest to cook and I dont want to be waiting for them when everything else is ready. -Every now and then you have to check that its not burning, because that doesnt really taste very nice. -Now Im going to cook the black pudding. If you look at it you see that it has got skin on it. But you have to leave the skin on, because if you dont leave it on, then the thing falls to bits, when you put it in the frying-pan. -Well leave that to cook for a while. -Well, now Im going to put the bacon in, so were nearly done. -Ill take the bacon and Ill just put that in. And while thats cooking itself, Ill go and get my rolls. -Now Im going to make some room in the pan, so Ive got space for my eggs and my tomatoes. -So if you use a wee bit of butter, just like that, it tastes so much better. -Let the butter melt and now we can throw the eggs in. -Just to keep it hot well cover it all with a lid. -Well, Ive cooked all that food but I forgot my vegetables, so Ill put the tomatoes in just now and put that back on to the heat. -And so were nearly there. -Well, it looks like its about ready now. So Ill take it over here and see how I can manage to fit it into my plate. -I put an egg in each bun and Ill have a bit of bacon with that. -And I need to close them, so theres room on the plate for the rest. -Well, now that Ive got everything ready I can take the skin off the pudding. Here you go and now you can sit down and start to eat. -A meal like this will keep me going for the whole day!

I make that sometimes after school, because it is easy to make and fast. -So now I have to grab a few things from the fridge. -The ingredients you need are: lettuce, tomatoes, some bread, bacon, cheese and of course some mayonnaise. -Now we have to turn on the grill. We turn it to about 250. -Now well toast the bread. - OK, well cut up some lettuce. OK, that should be enough. -Then youll cut up your tomato. You cut it in four slices. OK -And then you need to grate some cheese. -Oh, the toast is ready! -You see, nice and brown. -Then you put some mayonnaise on it. OK. Thats the mayonnaise. Spread it like this, and over here. -Then you just get your lettuce. You put the lettuce on first, just put it nice, just a bit. And then you just put the tomatoes on, four, thats one in every corner. Beep, beep -Oh, the bacon should be ready now! -OK, you just get the bacon and you place it on top. One here and one here. -Now, theres just one more thing left for me to do. Now, well just sprinkle some cheese on the top. I put lots of cheese, just like this. Its very messy. -You just take this slice and you put it back under the grill again. -You just leave it there for another few minutes and let the cheese melt. -I just take this with me now because I think its ready. -It is. Just put this on top and you bite into it. -Uh, hot! It is really hot!

Unit 1 Comprehension File Teens and mobile phones Melissa, 12, Liverpool I believe I cant do anything without my mobile phone. Its got all my numbers on, my info and I cant call my mates without it. The only thing is the amount of money I spend on it... But I love my little mobile phone and I cant go anywhere without it. Rachel, 13, Grantham The must-have item for everyone is a mobile phone, but I think that only mature people should have one. I cant agree with the idea that children must have one. They are just wasting money and time and it can damage their health. Lots of teens take them to school but I dont see the real need for that as schools will phone home if there are any problems. Stephen, 15, Antrim I agree. Mobiles are addictive. Mobiles are cool, but they are so dangerous and once you get one you cant put it down. In my case, Im not addicted to my mobile but I always have it with me so that I feel safe. Simon, 13, London My mobile phone is always on. I charge it up every night. I am always texting, but never phone people. Texting is so much better. Texting is so addictive, once you start you just cant stop.
You see, when the Pilgrims came to the New World, They worked very hard to grow crops of food. After much hardship, they met with success And were in a festive mood. The first year they settled was very harsh Over half of the Pilgrims died They owed their thanks to a native Indian, Squanto, who kept them alive.

A. Read Margueritas letter to her Irish pen friend, Nora.
18th September 2007 Dear Nora, I loved your postcard from the Bahamas. Sorry, I didnt write sooner but I was away on my summer holiday when it arrived. Then I had to get ready to go back to school, so I didnt have much time to write to all my friends, but Im going to do it now. My summer holiday was terrific. In July I went to Portugal with my family. My uncle lives in the Algarve and we also have a flat there. My cousins and I are about the same age, so we always have a great time together. Some friends of ours invited us to go on a boat trip to the caves along the coast and I found it really amazing. Then I spent three weeks in an international school at Bradfield in England to improve my English. I became much more confident and I made lots of friends from different parts of the world. It may seem a bit boring because we had classes but I didnt find it boring at all. Classes started at 9.00 and finished at 12.30 and we enjoyed ourselves a lot because we learned things in a funny way. We made videos and wrote magazine articles among other things. After lunch we had drama, arts and crafts, treasure hunt or we went for a short walk. Later we played sports like tennis, baseball, volleyball or football. Sometimes we went swimming too. In the evening we could watch films, organise a karaoke or take part in one of the many special nights they prepared for us. At the weekend we always had a barbecue when the weather was nice (unfortunately it was a bit rainy on the last week) and on Saturday night we all went to the discos. Every Friday we went in a trip to a famous British city and I took the chance to buy lots of souvenirs and some nice clothes too. Britain has wonderful scenery and I was really impressed with London, Oxford and Cambridge. I wish I could study at one of those universities some day. Maybe next year I will go to an international school in Ireland. Ive already talked to my parents about that and they say they will see what they can do. Perhaps we could meet then. I will tell you about it later. Please write and tell me more about yourself. How is the new school year going? Love from, Marguerita

B. Read the text carefully. Todays American teens live in a world enveloped by communication technologies; the Internet and cell phones have become a central force that fuels the rhythm of daily life. The number of teenagers using the Internet has grown 24% in the past four years and 87% of those between the ages of 12 and 17 are online. Compared to four years ago, teens use of the Internet has intensified and they log on more often and do more things when they are online. Among other things, there has been significant growth over the past four years in the number of teens who play games on the Internet, get news, shop online and get health information. Not only has the number of users increased, but also the variety of technologies that teens use to support their communication, research, and entertainment desires has grown. These technologies consist of a variety of methods and channels by which young people can communicate with one another as well as with their parents and other authorities. To them, e-mail is increasingly seen as a tool for communicating with adults such as teachers, institutions like schools, and as a way of giving detailed information to large groups. IM (Instant Message), however, is used for everyday conversations with multiple friends. It is easier and it is also used as a place of personal expression. Young people are leading the transition to a fully wired and mobile nation with all its advantages and disadvantages.

A. Read the texts carefully. Teen diet isnt all junk food Young people know how to eat wisely, and many do, though its hard to resist temptations. A walk through the food court of any shopping mall confirms the worst reports about teens eating habits: kids share cartons of French fries, bite into cheeseburgers, eat slices of pizza and drink jumbo cups of soda. Stop and talk to teenagers, though, and many say that they eat junk food mainly when theyre out of their parents sight, especially when theyre hanging out with friends. They have learned what it means to eat healthily, they say, even though they often dont choose to do so. Lets read what they say. I usually skip breakfast and have chips, cookies, candy and soda, bought from school vending machines, for lunch. I often go to a carryout restaurant after school for French fries, fried rice and egg rolls. Dinner at home tends to be much healthier, including baked chicken and rice. I know my mom would prefer that I eat healthier meals. But I dont have time to eat healthy and junk food is often the quickest way to satisfy my hunger when Im on the go and thats common among busy teenagers.

Name Age School year School name School groups
2007
B. Read the text carefully. Designer labels Hi! My name is Jonathan Dean. Im 14 and Im in the 8th grade. Every day, I walk through my school, Cross Keys, in Atlanta, Georgia, passing the endless groups and gangs that surround us. A band of Goths, a collection of Townies, a group of Rockers. We are all labelled Townie, Goth, Skater, Geek or a Rocker and it happens as soon as we leave kindergarten or primary school. We are thrown into the brutal, strange, worrying world of high school and fashion. Our tastes develop, interests change and we want to show we are almost grown ups. Sometimes even friends grow apart and there are new responsibilities, new ways of classifying people, a sector for every type of person according to the way they dress and the tastes they have. Although I feel this is a bad thing, I cant escape it. There are some classmates of mine who are proud of belonging to a group. Proud to be different they say but is it really so? Why do we allow ourselves to be driven into a band of similar people or to be victims of fashion? The main reason I find is based on our musical interests that influence what we wear. Rock, Punk, Dance, R&B, Metal. Just a few of the music types that boom from our stereos, PCs and Mp3s.These, I believe, control and dominate our style, our tasteeven our way of life. Another thing is the fear of being ridiculed for liking something that to others is not cool or right. There are some who want to be their own person and refuse to belong to these groups. I dont want to be a sheep, I want to be a new sort of person. Ill do my own thing and live my own life they say. They try not to be part of all the mad, crazy world of designer labels. Maybe someday Ill have the courage to do the same. C. Are the statements true (T) or false (F)? Correct the false statements. 1. Jonathan is worried about being labelled. 2. He thinks that we start to be victims of designer labels in the kindergarten. 3. He blames music for controlling teens lives. 4. He would like to change his attitude towards designer labels.

B. Read the text carefully. Designer labels Hi! My name is Jonathan Dean. Im 14 and Im in the 8th grade. Every day, I walk through my school, Cross Keys, in Atlanta, Georgia, passing the endless groups and gangs that surround us. A band of Goths, a collection of Townies, a group of Rockers. We are all labelled Townie, Goth, Skater, Geek or a Rocker and it happens as soon as we leave kindergarten or primary school. We are thrown into the brutal, strange, worrying world of high school and fashion. Our tastes develop, interests change and we want to show we are almost grown ups. Sometimes even friends grow apart and there are new responsibilities, new ways of classifying people, a sector for every type of person according to the way they dress and the tastes they have. Although I feel this is a bad thing, I cant escape it. There are some classmates of mine who are proud of belonging to a group. Proud to be different they say but is it really so? Why do we allow ourselves to be driven into a band of similar people or to be victims of fashion? The main reason I find is based on our musical interests that influence what we wear. Rock, Punk, Dance, R&B, Metal. Just a few of the music types that boom from our stereos, PCs and Mp3s.These, I believe, control and dominate our style, our tasteeven our way of life. Another thing is the fear of being ridiculed for liking something that to others is not cool or right. There are some who want to be their own person and refuse to belong to these groups. I dont want to be a sheep, I want to be a new sort of person. Ill do my own thing and live my own life they say. They try not to be part of all the mad, crazy world of designer labels. Maybe someday Ill have the courage to do the same. C. Are the statements true (T) or false (F)? Support your choices with sentences from the text. 1. Jonathan is worried about being labelled. _____________________________________ 2. He thinks that we start to be victims of designer labels in the kindergarten. _____________________________________ 3. In his opinion everybody should belong to a group. _____________________________________ 4. He blames music for controlling teens lives. _____________________________________ 5. He would like to change his attitude towards designer labels. _____________________________________ D. Answer the questions about the text. 1. What is Jonathan criticizing about the world of teens? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2. In his opinion, what changes when students move to high school? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 3. According to him, why do teenagers belong to specific groups? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 4. Do all the teens have the same attitude towards groups? Explain your opinion. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ E. Do you see your school the same way Jonathan does? Why / Why not? ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
