practicing in front of a mirror and try
to look for common mistakes in my
speech. This strategy is called selfmonitoring

PRODUCTION

As you might know a PET exam has


4 different parts , the first one is
about personal information , and for
this you need to make sure that you
are able to spell your full name
correctly, the second part is the
individual one in which you will be
asked to only describe what you see,
so is very important to be aware of
all the different element in the
pictures.
On the next part you will be ask to
discuss with each other about a
given topic and reach and agreement
, the most important element here is
you ability to interact so pay
attention to that .
Part number 4 it is a three-way
discussion (4 minutes)
You will be asked to discuss
(together with the other student and
the examiner) some ideas that are
connected with the joint task
presented on part 3 .

Now we will practice part 2 ,


the next pictures represent different
situations.
I would like you to describe one of
the scenarios that you see using as
much vocabulary as you can. You
will work in pair, and you will take
turns each of you needs to speak for

minutes to talk and 3 minutes to
present your opinions.

15-year-olds on a school trip.

places the class could visit and

POST LESSON COMMENTS: This class was developed for both of us and in general was really well distributed in time. We were able
to follow the lesson plan fairly well. Most of the issues were related with the technological devices that we used such as, the sound
devices which were not working properly. One of the problems that we face, were related with the students confidence, because even
though the activities were designed in order to encourage them to talk, it is still difficult for them to speak alone in front of the rest of
the class. But at the time of doing pair work is easier for them because it takes away the pressure, so it might be a good idea to work
or prepare activities to reinforce students confidence at the moment of speaking. The other issue is that we show them a digital copy
of a pdf file with useful expressions to use at the moment of the exam, and a printed copied would have been better. In general the
lesson was good and we achieve all the activities. The bound with the students is clearly evolving so this is reflected on the
classroom environment which were more relaxed in the second session.
