In this section, we will log in The Pearl of Africa’s pbworks website because we have the necessary material there. Beside, the pupils will work in groups of four and
they will use a computer to search the necessary information. The different parts of the exercise are designed for standard level students. Even though, the early-finishers
could be faster doing the part of the climate.
It is time to know about Uganda’s climate. In this section, we will work with a climate chart which shows Uganda’s climate features. We will need the Internet to go
into AEMET webpage, in order to search Pamplona’s climate features.

GENERAL EXPLANATION:
This section has a lot of exercises and we have decided to divide it into two parts. It means, we will do it in two days. The first day, we will read the reading and will do the
exercise related to that; the first matching exercise, the key concepts exercise and the second matching exercise. In that way, we are going to work the reading skill.
Besides, we will check through the two matching exercises if the students have understood the reading’s content.
The second day, we will carry out some exercises in order to work the comparison between Uganda and the Basque Country. Even though, we will work countries’ features,
the students will show their English’s skills. Actually, they have to use comparative and superlative forms to compare their country’s landscapes with Uganda’s landscapes.
As the unit is uploaded in The Pearl of Africa PBworks website; students will use the Internet.

The teacher will introduce the
topic by giving them the
example of her experience in
Uganda. She will use a power
point with real photos and
information about the country
such as where is located and
which ones are the most
important geographical
features. She will also give
them a specific example of a
town, explaining how they livethere. The aim of this acitvity is
to motivate them to learn more
about Uganda.
After the oral presentation we
will make them some questions
(to all the group) to get to know
how much do they know about
the topic. The questions are in
the end of the power point.
As a conclusion, we have to
explain why is this topic
important and raise awareness
about their lack of information ofthe topic. We will do this
through a group discussion in
which we will ask them
something like: have you ever

will listen to two voki listenings
where Remira explains what
this concept means. We are
going to hear the excerpt three
times. The first time we will try
to understand what she issaying. Then, they will listen to

In this section, we will first work with two readings about different tribes. In order to work with the readings of the “Journey” part, we will use the smart blackboard and
open the webpage. First, we will work the first one (Basoga people), and if we have time, we will work with the second (Bagisu). The second writing is added mainly for the
early-finishers, but we expect that we will have time to read both of them. We will also have a third text, explaining the circumcision tradition, which is much more difficult.
The activity of this text is also difficult. This last text is designed for the native speakers of each class. After finishing learning about different tribes´ culture, we will do a
more practical activity, learning a Ugandan song in English and their language.

make the first activity all
together. After that, they
will open their tablets,access to the page and
read in pairs the reading

carefully the text they will
do the activities related to
each text in pairs. Those
activities are going to be
in a word document: they
will need to open the word
document that is in the
webpage to do the
activities. In the title of
the document they have to
write the names of themember of the group. The
title of the document will
be: JOURNAY ACROSS

Those activities are
planned in a specific way:
they try to rich different
understanding levels, from
having a general idea of
each paragraph through
the skimming strategy in
the first activity; to
scanning the text and
answering some questions
that make them find out
the difficult concepts of
the text and have a better
understanding. We can
explain those strategies to
them so that the practise
them consciously.

.2.WRITING
-EXPLANATION:
After this activity, they will create a text in
groups of three or four. We are going to tell
them that they have to write a e-mail for our
Ugandan friend, Remira, and she is going to
show it in her school and, probably, their
students will answer it. In this e-mail they
need to explain some characteristics of the
Basque culture. So, in this activity they willwrite an e-mail with that contains an
informative text.
-PREWORK:
We will first explain that the aim of our
informative text is to give some real
information about a Basque Culture fact. We
have to underline that informative texts are
objective and give real information. We can
explain them some characteristics of
informative texts such as the use of technical
words, the use of the third plural person and
the spatial and temporal indicators. We will
use the informative texts that we have
already read to show them some examples of
those characteristics. As it is an informative
text, we will encourage them to find real
information about their topic on the Internet.
We will show them how to use the online
dictionaries if they need.
-BEFORE MAKING THE TEXT:
After we have explained what kind of text are
they going to create, we will give them the
specific task they have to do. The structure
they have to follow to write this text and a
clear and good example of this task arespecified in the website.There is also an
adapted task for the lower-level students
called “example letter”.

4.3.PAIREVALUATION
We will need to choose one text among all
of them, because we cannot send all to
Remira. Therefore, before they start writing,
we will have to agree on how the e-mails
are going to be evaluated. For that reason
we will show the “Halloween txarra” pdf
document, which is a bad example of a
descriptive text. We will ask them: is it a
good text? Why? Can you understand it?
And they will have to give their opinion and
some reasons. After that, we will compare
this text with “Halloween ona” and write
why the second text is better than the first
one. With those ideas, we will create a
template to evaluate the texts with the
quizmaker. We have a word explaining step
by step how to make one and we will also
show them an example of quiz that can be
used as an evaluation rubric of the website.
-AFTER WRITING THE TEXT
After writing their e-mails, each group
needs to present and defend their work in
front of the others, while their classmates
are going to evaluate in groups. We willchoose the best text according to the results
of the evaluation carried out by the different
groups of students in class.
