Welcome to Flying Colors!
This year, with the help of this book, you and your students will go on a
fascinating trip around the English-speaking world. Together with your Teacher’s Guide
students, you will fasten your seatbelt, take off and, while in flight, teach them
how to speak, read, write and read in English. In this way, a world of amazing
stories, fun activities and new information will open up to all of you!
On landing, students will begin to use everything they learned in the unit,
applying their newly-acquired abilities to projects. They will be performing
dialogues, planning an itinerary, making forecasts and more!
At the end of the year, students will be able to speak English better and will
be ready to pass their assessments with “flying colors”!

oday’s society is highly technological, culturally diverse and interconnected.
To grow and succeed in this context, children require an education with a global and long-term vision, with the
purpose of raising reflective, empathic, persevering, creative, happy and satisfied human beings.
The main purpose of the Modelo Educativo para la Educación Básica Obligatoria, Educar para la Libertad y la
Creatividad is to provide all boys and girls, without exception, with a high-quality education, based not only on the
accumulation of information, but also on the acquisition of key knowledge and skills that will enable them to face the
social, climatic, economic and cultural challenges the world presents and, above all, to have a happy and successful
life. This educational model is the result of a reform in the educational system oriented on 5 key axes at the core of
which are the children, for the benefit of whom all the efforts are directed.

a word. Encourage students to add words at either the
beginning or the end to make sentences:
Eat – eat pizza – I eat pizza and – I eat pizza and drink –
I eat pizza and drink soda.
The student who finishes a sentence can say period and
begin a different one.

Lesson Planning
Lesson planning is an important skill for a teacher. A
good lesson plan provides structure for the lesson and
holds all of its elements together. When a teacher spends
time thinking about what to teach and how to teach it,
he or she can step into the classroom with confidence,
ready to meet the challenges of the day. This contributes
greatly to the effectiveness of the lesson.

It is important that students learn how to participate

explaining to them that there are two key elements to
every oral exchange:

of words. In this unit, students will read a nonfiction
Using Dictionaries text about dictionaries.
Consider making students aware of the benefits of
using dictionaries. They can become more independent
and thus take more responsibility for their own
learning. They can also learn more vocabulary since
they will come across more words while trying to find
the meaning of the one they are looking up.
However, they should not overuse dictionaries. Make
sure students realize they do not have to understand
every single word they see. Whenever they encounter
an unknown word, encourage them to infer the
meaning through context.
Being responsible
We suggest you talk to your students about the
importance of taking responsibility for their actions.
One way is to encourage them to accept and mend
the mistakes they make. It is only human to make
mistakes, but many of us find it hard to accept the
consequences. Learning to find ways to fix our mistakes
is a part of growing up.

1 The main function of the circulatory system is to take oxygen and nutrients to all the
parts of the body and to get rid of the waste products. The circulatory system is made
up of the heart, blood and blood vessels (arteries, veins and capillaries). The heart is
a muscle that pumps the blood throughout the body. The blood is the red liquid that
circulates in the arteries, veins and capillaries, carrying nutrients and oxygen. The blood
vessels that carry blood away from the heart are called arteries, and the ones that carry
blood back to the heart are called veins. Finally, the tiny vessels that connect the arteries
and the veins are called capillaries.
