ENGLISH 8 by F PRIMA GRUPO EDITORIAL Pdf
SUNup! Engaging REAL-WORLD tasks for eighth graders is an integrated skills book which has been developed based on the Costa Rican English new program starting in 2017 for seventh graders. The book is ideal to study over an academic year. Students practice the four skills through communicative activities that follow the Task Based Approach in four stages. To achieve the language competence, this book is divided into six scenarios, each scenario is divided into four themes and an extension section called review and expand. Each theme organizes the tasks into two main components: oral and written comprehension, and oral and written production. The Action Oriented Approach states that students are social agents who use the target language to perform specific actions in real life contexts. To be coherent with this basic principle, the eighth grade English book includes the use of digital technology in the development of mini-projects and critical thinking by letting students make decisions through problem-solving situations. SUNup! Engaging REAL-WORLD tasks for eighth graders has been designed to consolidate the A2 band, based on the Common European Framework. In the extension activities, students are expected to reinforce grammar and sentence frames as well as reading comprehension. At the end of each scenario, students are expected to check their progress which derive from the linguistic competences “Learner can …” using a Can-do check list. A flexible classroom arrangement is recommended so that students can have opportunities to walk around and work in pairs or individually, which will provide them with the opportunity to develop learners’ meta-cognitive, meta-affective, and meta-social strategies in an organized, purposeful and scaffolded learning experience. Besides the students’ book, teachers have access to the audio- material and the teachers’ guide. The F PRIMA Publishing house focuses on supporting English Teachers in the process of understanding and implementing the new English syllabus approved by the Consejo Superior de Educación in the year 2016. Thank you for your commitment to the goal of transforming English Classrooms across Costa Rica.
