Activity 5
• Make sure students identify the
three stages of the study plan
and that they understand each
activity to be completed in
order to create an emotionary,
that is a text in which they can
write their emotions after having
read some poems.

• An alternative to the written
emotionary might be an oral
emotionary they express after
having read the poems aloud.
If you have the means to record
it or broadcast or present it in
front of an audience, you and
your students may choose an
alternative.

• If possible, show students a
written emotionary so they have
an idea of what it is expected.
Remember, the products should
be well done, but they may
not be perfect examples of the
texts suggested.
• Ask a student to read the tasks
out loud so they can understand
the activities they will complete
in order to read poems and
create their emotionary.
• Don’t forget to ask your students
to go back to the chart to tick
each activity as soon as you complete it. This gives your students a sense of accomplishment. However,
time should not be diverted from higher priority tasks to do this, so schedule your time appropriately.
• Check if you can use the computers at school to look for poems or give this task for homework. Try to be
resourceful and think outside the box.
• RB Box can either extend the current practice or provide material for developing it. If you have enough
material, take time during the practice to go through the Reader’s Book to foster curiosity and improve
reading skills.
• IT box icons appear frequently in the practices with suggested websites. We recommend you visit the
websites before the session to check whether the contents proposed are useful for your class planning
and to anticipate questions from your students. You may also want to let them explore the websites freely.
These suggestions are not essential for developing the social practice of language, since we know Internet
connection may not be available at all locations.
• Use this opportunity to explain the following:

- What the Internet is: a global network that consists of a system of documents (textual, graphic or
audiovisual) connected to websites.

- What is a hyperlink: the connection between one place and another on the Web which can appear as a
word or an icon.
