Unit 17.

Practice Activities and Tasks for Language and Skills Development.

The learning process in this unit was significant for me, I learned a variety of activities that I can use in a class for developing the four skills.

        I consider that this lesson is too important for teacher in order to apply the different kind of activities,with the idea of integrate the four skills. Also tasks are part of the way of increasing the knowledge for students, vocabulary and grammatical structures are useful in this part for extend the use of the language and the subskills that reading, writing , speaking and listening have , give to the students theopportunity to uses in different aspects, Of course with the teacher´s help . Also the way that each activity is presented for students need to have variety and purpose for can develop in a satisfactory aspect. 

     Similarly, the controlled activities give students the confidence to increase with accuracy in the target language, in this part is important the way of how teacher models the activity with drill, this can be individual,  choral  , substitution , key word and  transformation drills . Those activities help to maintain a good level of learning. Also students can create sentences with different structures that allow student using the language in a freeway.

      To finish, into this unit is important to mention that teacher should use resources for considering activities likes as internet, books and real materials, all of them, are important at the moment of create or prepare a lesson or any activities, because teacher need to consider   the way of how the language is using, for example role- play is related with the communicative part for teachers and for student is the way of create dialogue and feel assured for acting in front of others. At the end the result will be positive, if teacher takes the advantages and disadvantages in each activities.
