Refuerzo de inglés en verano. Quinto.

Estas actividades son obligatorias para los alumnos y las alumnas a quienes que se ha indicado,

debiendo entregarlas a la vuelta al colegio en septiembre, y voluntarias para los demás.

Los objetivos son:

Afianzar contenidos trabajados durante el curso.

Mantener el contacto con la lengua inglesa.

Lo mejor es realizar las actividades de forma distribuida a lo largo de todo el verano.

Se incluyen actividades de expresión escrita, comprensión lectora y gramática. Además, se

recomienda leer otros textos en inglés (especialmente, audiolibros, a la vez que se escuchan) y

practicar con actividades online. Estos recursos se pueden encontrar en el aula virtual y en el

blog.

Writing (expresión escrita)

Escribir un texto cada semana, con un mínimo de 50 palabras, según el plan que se presenta a

continuación. Escribe a mano, cuidando la ortografía, la gramática y la letra. Por favor, no

utilices traductores de internet: el resultado no es correcto y perjudica a tu aprendizaje.

Semana 1: escribe sobre planes, sobre lo que tú u otras personas van a hacer, usando to be

+ going to. Por ejemplo: I’m going to the swimming pool.

Semana 2: escribe sobre rutinas diarias en verano, tuyas o de otras personas, usando el

Present Simple. Por ejemplo: We go to the park in the afternoons.

Semana 3: Juega a “espiar” lo que hacen otras personas y escribe un pequeño “reportaje”,

usando el Present Continuous. Por ejemplo: My sister is reading a book.

Semana 4: Cuenta actividades o sucesos de la semana anterior, usando el Past Simple. Por

ejemplo: Last week, my cousins visited us.

Semana 5: Cuenta actividades o sucesos de esa semana, usando el Present Perfect. Por

ejemplo: This week, I have played Fortnite.

Semana 6: Escribe un cuento o historia, con tema libre.

Semana 7: Escribe una carta a un compañero o una compañera de clase. Puedes hablar de

lo que quieras. Opcional: Puedes escribirla a ordenador y enviársela por correo electrónico

o a través del aula virtual.

Semana 8: Escribe predicciones sobre lo que piensas que va a ocurrir en el próximo curso,

utilizando el tiempo verbal de futuro (will). Por ejemplo: I think we will play Kahoot.
