1. Justification

The target students for this unit are those in third year of primary education.
The parties of birthday areimportant for the children. The children share a lot of positive experiences that help to the socialization with the family and the friends. The pupils like birthdays and they represent a way of socializing with the family and friends. This event motivates the children to remembering and studying your date of birth, the months of the year, the stations, the days of the week, etc.
By using theseactivities, we aim to ensure that students not only learn the English language, in this case vocabulary related to birthdays, household items and some linguistic structures, but they also learn to communicate encouraging the exchange at all times of real and simulated language in the classroom and related to their interests. It is also an opportunity to introduce likes and dislikes, I like,don’t like, etc.
The pupils in this class have a very basic level of English language. The class in general has not successfully achieved the expected level of different skills, so the unit will start at a level they can understand.

2. Sessions

This unit was realized during the second semester. This unit was developing in two weeks, in six meetings, each of them of 50 minutes.
The unitthat we sense beforehand this one thought for six meetings, but always us adapting to our pupils, with total flexibility. If it’s necessary it was getting longer or they were shortening the meetings taking as a reference the difficulties or achievements that our pupils present.
