BIENVENIDOS AL CURSO ONLINE DE VERANO DE 2012


PROGRAMACIÓN DEL CURSO Y CONSEJOS ÚTILES

La planificación del curso es personal y completamente abierta, y podéis configurar el curso como queráis. Podéis mandar vuestras dudas sobre cualquier tema de la asignatura en este blog.

Es fundamental que todos vosotros leáis en inglés lo máximo posible con ayuda de un diccionario: libros por niveles en inglés, textos en inglés sacados de internet, traducir canciones... Esta tarea debe ser constante desde el principio. Es tan importante como conocer los aspectos gramaticales y estructuras del idioma.

Sería importante también trabajar con un vocabulario temático. Es conveniente tener un vocabulario en distintos ámbitos de la lengua. Os recomiendo que antes de realizar una redacción en inglés, busquéis 15 ó 20 palabras que pertenezcan al tema de redacción que os propongan (algunas que conocéis y otras que podéis buscar en el diccionario). Esta metodología os ayudará a recordar vocabulario de algunos temas concretos.

Además, aparte del trabajo con vocabulario, es fundamental el conocimiento de todos los tiempos verbales, los verbos irregulares y los conectores (tema 4), para cohesionar las redacciones. En diferentes entradas de este blog podréis encontrar diferentes ejercicios.

También podéis hacer los ejercicios que aparecen en el worbook. Al final del temario aparecen varios modelos de examen que podéis realizar. De todas formas, si tenéis cualquier duda, podéis hacerla a través del blog.

Ánimo y trabajad mucho, tanto la gramática como el vocabulario con la práctica de la lectura. 
Un saludo
