Learners find pictures of styles or design their own fashion elements using vocabulary we have learned in class. Presentations can be an entire portfolio or one picture. The presentations much mention at least 3 different items of clothing or accessories and depict one or more patterns and colors.
In this unit learners are studying ways to communicate in English about locations and travels that pertain to daily life or vacations.
Motivating ourselves with our travel board and the places we wish to go using our new English language abilities is one of our first projects. Learners have a chance to showcase and present to the class a location where they have traveled or long to visit in their individual project. PresentCHIA Presentations about locations in the community are wonderful as well. Our goal with this project is to use English language to talk about places that we are excited about!
Exploration of English/American language through cuisine.
Students will find that there is a lot to discuss about food in American and English cultures. Research and projects must include a theme about English/American cuisine but can be about anything in the culture such as entertainment (and even common metaphorical uses) or recipes or agriculture. Whatever learners wish to explore and present to the class will enhance English language learning and acquisition. This unit accompanies instruction with vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar pertaining to everything related to cuisine.
Students create charts of their own based on English grammar charts in a way that makes sense to them which allows them to discover how the grammar works to form sentences about topics that they observe and find fascinating in the community.
Adventures in the English Language through study of English/American musical melodies and lyrics
The unit about music and lyrics in English language allows students to experiment with utilizing the English language by studying some of their favorite musical atists. Presenations about music could entail details about the atists, their music, musical instruments, or musical genres commonly sung in English, such as Jazz, which is indigenous to America. Accompanying classroom lessons for this project would be suitable for beginner-advanced level university students as lyrical elements are exciting to incorporate into everyday or artistic written works.
