educational institution is addressed to students from the nearby district as well as people
with low incomes households. The access to the school is influenced and measured by
behavior in relation to teachers and parents’ perspectives and notions towards students’
inclusion while developing their socio emotional skills. That is to say, the administration
promotes the promotion of these skills as a way to ensure students cognitive development.
In fact, due to the nature of the school, diversity plays a significant role for all school’s
Regarding assessment and their criteria, the school follows the decree 67 established
by the government. This decree states students' learning process has to be measured by
different instances. That is to say, students have instances in which they can apply the
content throughout formative assessments to gather and keep track of their learning
process. Nevertheless, we noticed the school’s staff use these instruments to mark them as
summative marks. Thus, the purpose of having them is compromised by the need of having
marks. Although they have summative assessments through the terms, they are still
Concerning the English class, students have weekly sessions that last no more than
40 minutes. Since the school only has access to the zoom’s free version, there is no other
chance to have longer classes. Besides, we have not noticed any platform as a tool for
communication between teachers and parents apart from direct mails and WhatsApp
applications. As a result, the process of gathering files and students’ workload seems
disorganized and messy because it seems like there is no organization. In terms of the
teacher, the approach observed so far was mostly grammar translation and audiolingual.
This can lead us to think students’ participation is mostly reactive as they do not engage
with the language in a communicative way. In fact, crucial elements within the class can be
listed as the following: vocabulary list of more than 20 words, translation of passages and
texts, use of online translators and the use of L1 during most of the lesson. Therefore,
students’ agency may seem like a passive actor or a blanc Canva in relation to content. The
language is not used in a meaningful way as they just need to remember content words in
Last but not least, students' characteristics, classes are composed of around 37
students each. As we mentioned before, their cultural background differs from one to
students' contexts. Nevertheless, students' interests are related to the internet, social media,
and videogames. Although we considered these elements essential, we considered that the
context of the pandemic has a crucial impact on their preferences. Apart from that the
relationship between students and teacher may seem positive as students communicate with
their homeroom teacher and English teacher directly through devices. Therefore, the most
significant issue regarding students' learning process is the uncertainty of online classes as a
means to learn. We are aware that we cannot change the current situation in our context, but
we identify that it is necessary to organize work, classes, and material in a shared platform

The class that we are working on is a seventh-grade class from a public institution
called República de Colombia. The overall call is composed of around 30 students but less
than half of it might not participate much. Another element to consider is the dynamic as it
entails the way English has been taught so far. Pupils react to commands and they mostly
expect to be told what to do. Besides, generally the workload is orientated towards
translation and memorization. This situation might suggest that students are receivers of
information rather than the ones creating it (Richards & Rodgers, 2001). As a result, the
class may come up with issues at the moment of transferring the content into new
situations. Moreover, the progression from one class to the next seems compromised since
students have difficulties to reuse previous knowledge. Because of this situation we wanted

want to implement three permanent rules to be remembered during the whole year. In fact,
as Harmer (2012) mentioned, instructions should not be more than three and they need to
be short and sweet. This can help classes as students will have a notion about what they can
do or not in terms of behavior. Furthermore, we are aware of the context of online classes,
thus the use of socio-affective strategies for developing a healthy environment can be
suitable to work with. Since students need to respect turns and be mindful of others’
Considering the Pre-stage of the class, the activation of previous knowledge and
vocabulary would be key to proceed with the class. To do so, we want to build up a general
notion of the class to warm them up so it can be easier for them to work on the following
activities (Campbell & Campbell, 2006). However, it is important to not forget they need
suitable vocabulary to understand the following input. Therefore, we would want to provide
no more than 7 words per class as it is suitable for the context (Nation, 2007). These would
be presented through games as it makes students participate more in the dynamic (Richard
& Rodgers, 2001). As a result, students will be able to have the necessary knowledge to
check their level. In this way we can be able to diagnose whether they are able to work on
them easily or not. To do so, we are going to present the input as a chat to make it more
relatable. Nevertheless, beforehand we will need to make predictions with them to build a
general idea about the task based on images (Sreenidhi, 2017). The text itself is going to be
The overall purpose of the stage will be the comprehension of the input by applying
strategies to facilitate the reading. Such as scanning for specific information and checking
predictions. Finally, the after-reading will enhance critical thinking instances in which
students can make the connection between the context and their content to build up new
learning process. That is why we want to expose them to the use of chunks by making them
infer language features as well as their meaning (Nunan, 2003). In fact, after proceeding
with the awareness of these parts of speech they will need to work on them from simple to
more complex tasks (Ur, 1996). To do so, we have to make them write as much as possible
to give them opportunities to apply the skill. After preparing students with all these
experiences, they will need to produce something meaningful as a way to express their
thoughts (Nunan, 2003). Therefore, the task will mostly ask them to tell us about how they
Finally, the closure will be more a tool to check students’ metacognitive notion in
which they will recognize whether they consider their process effective or not (Brown,
xxxx). For us teachers, it can help us to gather this information in order to adapt and change
our future praxis based on the class. In this way we can be more effective during the unit

The results of the formative assessment will be
considered in the following classes to reinforce what the
students are struggling with.
Justification N°3: Valeria´s Class
The class that we are working on is a seventh-grade class from a public institution
called República de Colombia. The overall call is composed of around 30 students but less
than half of it might not participate much. Another element to consider is the dynamic as it
entails the way English has been taught so far. Pupils react to commands and they mostly
expect to be told what to do. Besides, generally the workload is orientated towards
translation and memorization. This situation might suggest that students are receivers of
information rather than the ones creating it (Richards & Rodgers, 2001). As a result, the
class may come up with issues at the moment of transferring the content into new
situations. Moreover, the progression from one class to the next seems compromised since
students have difficulties to reuse previous knowledge. Because of this situation we wanted
Richard & Rodger established, the use of Community Language Teaching can help them to
integrate the language during active participation. This changed the paradigm of students
Furthermore, the application of relatable input can make the message comprehensible more
easily for them to work on (Nation, 2007). Finally, the whole class will be supported by
and the current settling on classes. To make the class’s rhythm as smooth as possible we
want to implement three permanent rules to be remembered during the whole year. In fact,
as Harmer (2012) mentioned, instructions should not be more than three and they need to
be short and sweet. This can help classes as students will have a notion about what they can
do or not in terms of behavior. Furthermore, we are aware of the context of online classes,
thus the use of socio-affective strategies for developing a healthy environment can be
suitable to work with. Since students need to respect turns and be mindful of others’
Considering the Pre-stage of the class, the activation of previous knowledge and
vocabulary would be key to proceed with the class. To do so, we want to build up a general
notion of the class to warm them up so it can be easier for them to work on the following
activities (Campbell & Campbell, 2006). However, it is important to not forget they need
suitable vocabulary to understand the following input. Therefore, we would want to provide
no more than 7 words per class as it is suitable for the context (Nation, 2007). These would
be presented through games as it makes students participate more in the dynamic (Richard
& Rodgers, 2001). As a result, students will be able to have the necessary knowledge to
First, we will need to make predictions with them to build a general idea about the
task based on images (Sreenidhi, 2017). The text itself is going to be checked by making
true or false questions to enhance understanding (Anderson, 2007). The overall purpose of
the stage will be the comprehension of the input by applying strategies to facilitate the
reading. Such as scanning for specific information and checking predictions. Finally, the
after-reading will enhance critical thinking instances in which students can make the
connection between the context and their content to build up new ideas and reflection
(Nation, 2007)
Concerning the post stage, we want students to integrate connectors to support their
learning process. That is why we want to expose them to the use of chunks by making them
infer language features as well as their meaning (Nunan, 2003). In fact, after proceeding
with the awareness of these parts of speech they will need to work on them from simple to
more complex tasks (Ur, 1996). To do so, we have to make them write as much as possible
to give them opportunities to apply the skill. After preparing students with all these
experiences, they will need to produce something meaningful as a way to express their
thoughts (Nunan, 2003). Therefore, the task will mostly ask them to tell us when the last
time was, they went out as a way to create a sentence on their own.
Finally, the closure will be more a tool to check students’ learning process. Students
will answer a formative assessment “evaluating students in the process of forming their
competencies” (Brown & Abeywickrama, 2010). For us teachers, it can help us to gather
this information in order to adapt and change our future praxis based on the test results. In
this way we can be more effective during the unit (Ur, 1996).

thus the use of socio-affective strategies for developing a healthy environment can be
suitable to work with. Since students need to respect turns and be mindful of others’
work on the following task with the necessary content (Sreenidhi & Chinyi 2017). Thus, it
is significant to activate their previous knowledge and ideas to gather the necessary
knowledge to proceed further on the task. In fact, the layout of a poster is not a novel
element as it is commonly seen in school. Pupils may have a general notion that can be
worked on based on a sample. Therefore, the use of images (Brown, 2007) will help them
to refresh their memories and present them what we want them to replicate. The main point
of having Task-based lessons will be the transfer of content into new situations that require
them (Larseen-Freeman & Anderson, 2006) As a result, students would be able to use the
language as an active agent within their own learning process. Nevertheless, the role of the
teacher cannot be left apart because it would be the facilitator of the lesson instead of the
lecturer.
The post task activity is focused on the process of providing feedback to students in
relation to their performance. We consider it crucial to have these instances to make sure
students can develop and acknowledge language features and language understanding (Ur
1996). In this way students can have opportunities to think about their learning process in
order to solve doubts regarding the writing. Once the feedback has been given, students can
correct the errors, making this activity a meaningful experience. Therefore, to complete the

As this is the last lesson of the unit, students will be asked to put into practice what they
have learned during the process. This lesson format allows students to focus on 3 essential
The pre-task stage of the class is to recall what was learned during the unit within a
brainstorming session based on the unit on emotions and opinions. Once this first part is
completed, students will be exposed to a visual image of the poster they saw during the last
session. Since this will be the format to use to create their own poster, what is aimed is that
they clarify their ideas in order to be able to work. The in-Task part of the class presents the
instructions for the poster which will be based on how they have felt at home during the
pandemic. At this point the student is expected to be able to think of two situations where
they can include the elements seen in the unit such as emotions, likes and dislikes and
opinions giving the student a meaningful experience, (Nation, 2007) in which they can
express themselves. Thus, the process of transferring the content into new situations can
lead students to integrate the language more easily as they will be able to communicate a
message to others. The Post Task activity aims to provide students with feedback on their
work considering what they have achieved during the class, hopefully correcting common
language errors or problems with the poster format, once the feedback has been given,
students can correct the errors, making this activity a meaningful experience. To close the
unit the exit ticket provides students with the possibility to express their opinions and
feelings according to their experience during the unit, this feedback aims to consider their
