2. Characteristics.

Cesar Augusto School is a school from Zaragoza city, its students are from a economic and socio-cultural middle-class.

It is located in a district that are very well communicated with downtown, in its proximities is the football ground of the Romareda, the Hotel Romareda, the Hospital Miguel Servet, the Church of Santa Monica and three schools public: Elíseo Godoy, Caesarean Alierta and Doctor Azúa.

In this center they distribute Infantile and Primary Ed. with its respective buildings and playgrounds. There are several fields of basketball, a one of soccer and polideportivo that shares with the C.p. Caesarean Alierta.

The interior of the building of Primary account with the following facilities: room of computers, library, room of audio-visual, laboratory of languages, classroom of music, room of psicomotricidad, gymnasium and classrooms of logopedia. Also in this building are the kitchen and the dining room; several positions of a guardian; the boardroom; and the offices of Secretariat, Headquarters of Studies and Direction.

The classrooms are very luminous, even those that they do not give to the outside, as it is the case of the classroom of 1º B. The classroom is also quite ample and the distribution of the tables is in form of Or with two central rows, of this form the students have visibility towards the slate and almost all its companions. At the end of the class there are a bookcase with books and didactic games and four tables where the children can dedicate themselves to read or to play once have finished their tasks.

We counted on the essential materials like the slate, chalks, rough draft, all the furniture made up of the tables, chairs, closets, bookcases, hangers... Also it is had radiocassette, corks to hang its drawings and numerous murals.

3. Group analysis.

This class of 1º of Primary consists of 26 students, and two of them are of integration, a boy and a girl. The boy, David, have some type of mental discapacity, which causes learning problems to him in addition to lack of attention and concentration. He is not either able to make the activities in case single since these suppose a great mental effort to him and he tires much, then lets work and it is already impossible that he resumes the task. Still he is with the reading record and he costs to him much to write. He has more facility for the mathematics that the rest of the areas stops. Patricia reads and writes rather better, but even so it undergoes delays in the accomplishment of the tasks. Due to his great infantilism it does not know to make the activities without aid and its lack of attention is considerable. For the understanding of the activities it needs one more a lengthy and ample explanation than the others. In addition she is a very uncertain girl and she is not absolutely participativa. Of the others, both very either they are integrated in the class, take very or with the other students who help them in which they can. Also they receive support classes during one hour to the day.

The rest of the class is quite heterogenous, excepting three or four children who excel to the rest because they include/understand and they make the activities much more fast.

No of these factors delays nor disturbs the dynamics of the group reason why the work forecasts are fulfilled almost always.

With respect to knowledge previous on language of English, (excepting Miguel which it was living in the U.s.a.), they are such for all the children since they have already been initiated in ed. Infantile in this same center. They know the numbers until ten, and six colors (network, blue, orange, green, Brown, yellow) and have some vocabulary acquired on animals and toys. They recognize some instructions and they know to interpret the explanations that occur them.

4. Personal and formal resources.

The teaching staff turns upside down much in all the students and the school in general also supports and values much the education of Foreign Languages and not only within the curriculum but extrascholastic activity.

The students feel attracted by the language of English because the classes more dynamic, distendidas and are also entertained. The classes of English are distributed in the schedule in afternoons, Tuesdays during the last hour, from 4 to 5.

5. Presentation of the unit.

This unit, My Class, can be very interesting for the children since they are going to learn words of objects that they use to newspaper in another language. The use of this topic enough is adapted since it is referred to the immediate surroundings and in the place where they pass most of the day, its class. They can feel nearer the new language if subjects of their own interest are approached, and this subject falls by its own weight.

If they are able to say the word in English, two stars are marked (of understanding and of expression). If they don't respond, are they asked “Is it to….?”. If the boy only responds Yes / No correctly, is the first star marked, (of understanding) but not the second (of expression). The teacher stay the tests kept until the finalización of it, later they are distributed so that they keep it with the rest of their material.

MATERIALS, MEANS AND RESOURCES

The material used to carry out this Didactic Unit has been since of maximum width, because we have not restricted ourselves only to the specific materials of the classroom but rather they have been used all type of instruments that could be employees in a pedagogic way.

The fixed material that has been used has been the characteristic of the classroom and center, and the material of the text books: Class book, Fun Book, Guides of the professor, flashcards, cassette and photocopy material.

Material of the environment, of the means of information and of the community, it has not been possible to use it due to the level of initiation of the the students, but in other levels it had been very interesting to work with it.

It has been used, on the other hand, material of own elaboration for games and activities mainly for the session number eight that the one that I put into practice was. There has also been improvised didactic material.

MOTIVATION

The motivation in this Unit has been projected toward the necessities and the students' interests, keeping in mind its age and its physical state during the classes. All the elements of the programming can be motivational, although the activities are the biggest support to the motivation.

Many activities have for function an initial motivation in the children, so that they are interested in the session that will carry out. These activities are thought as starting point.

Other essential activities are the reinforcement activities that are introduced when appears the decline, fatigue or monotony in the class. These are usually those more dynamic or those that the students like more (to paint, to draw).

On the other hand the elements of final motivation are but well synthesis activities or a little more relaxed that those of the rest of the session, because they are already tired and they need activities that relax them.

METHOD AND TEACHING - LEARNING PROCESS

The teaching method should make comfortable to the student's psychological peculiarities, to its learning rhythm and the concrete social atmosphere they are include. The objectives formulated in this unit have been thought so that the students could reach them with easiness but not without some effort.

It is important to create a climate relaxed in the classroom because a method that can create this climate has more possibilities of success, because it favors the autonomy and the boy's freedom.

In relation to the contents, it is progressive, orderly and gradual, from the easiest thing to most difficult, favoring this way the significant learning. It responds to the structuring and sequence of objectives and contents.

In class the collaboration should be fomented and not the competition among the children.

Lastly, our method demonstrates its effectiveness in the educational results achieved since they have been overcome the objectives that we have formulated.

EVALUATION

I believe that it would be the most appropriate thing to evaluate alone the session that I put into practice with the children since all the other ones are only theoretical estimates of how I would carry out a Didactic Unit.

For the session number eight, I prepared three activities to refresh the vocabulary and the structures that they had seen in the previous sessions. The activities that I developed were mainly games since it is the main motivation of all boy.

The first activity (the song) I thought that it would be good idea to carry out it in the first place since it served them as review of some words and colors, besides being a good initial motivation to begin the class. This activity also completes many of the objectives that were had foreseen, as much cognitives as psicoaffective.

The activity number two were the most dynamic, for that reason I wanted to carry out it in second place. The problem that originated was the division of the class in groups and the placement of its tables, because they created a din and we had lost lots of time. At the beginning the children neither understood very well on what it consisted the game, and I have to repeat in different ways several times.

Also occur a small accident with the group 3, since it was not the puzzle of the first word among their material and for that reason they took more time in completing the activity that the rest of their partners.

The error was mine, but still not know how could happen since had been preparing it to conscience. This activity went the most problematic at level of method, but it completed the objectives of the unit and the children liked it enough. The turn of this activity, in which should be standing, to the following one, in which returned to its seats, was not as disastrous as it had been before it.

The last activity should be relax because they make many nerves in that type of activities due to its great competitiveness, what is normal in children of these ages. The game `I spy with my little eye', all liked it and although didn't got time to that all the children left to be thought an object, all participated and they have fun.

I had some problems when wanting to explain on what consisted the activity, when all the children know how to play to the'veo-veo'. I have complicated my life a little, and I confused them a bit. In general I believe that the session came out quite well, and although I had some problems, the objectives were completed and they saw the contents formulated in the programming.
