Inhaltsangabe

Spanish Sentence Builders - Primary Part 2 - SPEAKING BOOKLET can be used as an accompaniment to the main Spanish Sentence Builders - Primary Part 2 book, by Simona Gravina, Stefano Pianigiani, Gianfranco Conti & Dylan Viñales. It can also be used as a standalone volume for any teacher wanting to stage speaking activities on the covered topics.

The topics included are:

1. Mi familia - I can say names and age of family members
2. ¿Cómo eres? - I can describe physical and personal traits
3. Los ojos y el pelo - I can describe hair and eyes
4. La ropa - I can describe what I wear
5. Mi rutina diaria - I can describe my daily routine
6. Las asignaturas - I can say what subjects I study
7. Los profesores - I can describe my teachers

This book has been designed as a resource to use in conjunction with the E.P.I. approach and teaching strategies in a bid to scaffold oral communication by gradually moving from highly structured tasks (e.g. ‘Oral Ping Pong’, ‘No snakes no ladders’, ‘Communicative drills’) to semi-structured ones (e.g. ‘Surveys’, ‘Things in Common’, ‘Detectives and Informants’).
The activities in this book should be carried out after an intensive listening and reading phase, in which the students have been flooded with highly comprehensible input containing the target vocabulary and grammar structures, thereby processing them receptively many times over.

What’s inside
Each unit includes a sentence builder with the target constructions and vocabulary followed by a series of tried and tested Conti E.P.I. speaking games sequenced so as to pose a gradually increasing degree of challenge. The speaking games included are:

• Oral Ping Pong
• Find Someone Who
• No Snakes No Ladders
• Staircase Translation
• Faster!
• Fast & Furious
• Communicative Drills
• Fluency Cards
• Trapdoor
• Things in Common
• Detectives & Informants
• Information Gap Tasks

New Read-Aloud Role Play Section
This book now features a new Read-Aloud Role Plays section designed to build pronunciation, fluency and confidence. Free native-speaker recordings are available on the Language Gym website for students to listen and practise along.

As already noted, the above games & activities are sequenced in ascending order of linguistic and cognitive challenge. The focus is on gradually building up students’ fluency and autonomous competence. These games fall in the ‘Structured Production’, ‘Routinization’ and ‘Spontaneity’ phases in Dr Conti’s MARS EARS pedagogical cycle, which is central to his E.P.I. approach.

Many thanks for reading this. We hope that both you and your students will find this book useful and enjoyable.
Gianfranco, Dylan, Aurélie, Ryan & Victoria
