Lesson Programme

Out and About 2 is divided into nine units and sections for studying grammar, vocabulary, reading, pronunciation, understanding spoken and written language, and has the following sections:Vox-pop videos, Life skill, Streetwise, Tip, Idioms, Phrasal verbs, False friends and Get it right.

In addition to the Pupil's Book, the Teacher's Book and the recordings, the following materials are part of the course:

For pupils:

Common Mistakes at Bachillerato 2: This deals with the most common mistakes which Spanish pupils make and give the chance to practise and correct them.

Pupils also have a Workbook Audio, on which they can listen to all the audio comprehension activities and dictations.

The Out & About Augmented Reality App allows pupils to scan the first page of each unit to give them direct access to the multimedia resources on their mobile phones and tablets.

For teachers:

The Teacher’s Resource Disc includes a great variety of extra resources: exercises for grammar on two levels, vocabulary exercises, practising oral comprehension, oral language production, writing, translation, worksheets about literature and exams on two PAU levels in each unit, at the end of each term and at the end of the course.

The Teacher’s DVD includes all the course videos and a photocopiable notebook.

Online PAU Test Generator creates PAU-type exams.

The website www.outandabout.es offers pupils and teachers extra material, including sound files, videos, activities and the tips and tricks section which helps pupils to use English in the real world.

This Lesson Programme has been drawn up for use throughout the academic year at non-bilingual educational centres or with the minimum number of hours set by the Spanish educational system. Each teacher can adapt the programme to his/her needs and those of his/her centre.

In 2nd Baccalaureate, each unit consists of three lessons of 50 to 55 minutes every week.

1st term: Units 1 and 2.

2nd term: Units 3 and 4.

3rd term: Units 5 and 6.

Each table in this Lesson Programme suggests how to use the activities in the Student's Book (SB), Work Book (WB) and others parts of Out & About during a lesson. They also reflect the general and specific objectives of each objective such as competences, types of interaction, competences developed and the materials required for that purpose. The abbreviations used are:

Competences

OC - Oral Comprehension

OE - Oral Expression

RC - Reading Comprehension

WE - Writing Expression

Interaction:

Ind- Individual

P - in pairs

SG - small groups

LG - large group, the whole class

Competences

LC - Linguistic Communication

MSCT- Mathematical competence and basic science and technology competences.

DC - Digital competences

LL - Learning to Learn

SCC - Social and Civic Competences.

SIE - Sense of Initiative and Entrepreneurship

CCE - Cultural Conscience and Expressions

At the end of each lesson there are optional activities in the Teacher’s Resource Disc (grammar, vocabulary, writing, reading, dictations, translation, various different communication activities) which the teacher may use if there is time, giving priority to those which reinforce the most needed structures, vocabulary and competences.

In the Reinforcement-Extension / Homework* column activities are added for different purposes:

1.  Reinforcing parts of the unit which are not clear or which are difficult.

2.  Giving pupils who learn slowly more chance to practice.

3.  Allowing faster pupils to reinforce and extend their knowledge without getting bored.

Some of these activities may be used in class and others can be given as homework (marked with *).

The evaluation tables at the end of each unit reflect the activities at the end of each lesson which can be used to evaluate different competences. The teacher can use these and others to observe pupils' progress, or choose specific options to evaluate the whole unit, although to do the latter we recommend using the Tests included in the Teacher's Resource Disc (TRD). An evaluation lesson is recommended at least once per unit.
