This is the Teacher´s Guide for unit 4 for fourth grade. The unit´s name is Take Care.

Teachers can use it as a resource to get ideas to design the self-study guides (GTA).

Remember that in the "Plantillas de Aprendizaje" (PAB) you find the goals and assessment strategies to be taught in the school year 2020.

In the column of "ideas sugeridas" form the PAB template, teachers will include the GTA. In order to design the self study guides (GTA), teachers may consult the teacher´s guide, but only for the goals indicated in the Plantilla de Aprendizaje Base (PAB).

The main objective of these guides, within the framework of the national emergency caused by
COVID-19, is to provide a working route to guide teachers in the implementation of the syllabus, by showing the leaning outcomes considered fundamental during the rest of the school year
2020.

Teachers will complete their plans using these Plantillas de Aprendizaje Base 2020 (PAB), and they will include the Self study Guides (GTA) in the fourth column on the left (algunas actividades sugeridas), as an annex.

Since the new English Syllabus is based on the vision of the New Citizenship, the planning template, in the context of the curricular transformation, will remain the same with the inclusion of four rows that indicate the dimension(s) to which the theme is directed.

These are the complete Teachers´ Guides first, second and third grades. You will find the same templates with the inclusion of the four dimensions. These are the plans teachers use (contextualizing and adapting the mediation strategies to the school´s reality). 

In these documents, high school teachers will find the distribution of topics to carry out the syllabus, especially during the first period, in which topics from the third trimester from last year are considered as well as topics from the first trimester from this year.

According to the circular letter DDC-DTCE-448-03-2018, IPECs and CINDEAs will start the implementation of the new English Curriculum in II Level as follows:

First period 2019

Scenarios( Units):  Here I Am!, Enjoying Life, Getting Back to Nature and Checking Things off a Shopping List

Second Period 2019

Scenarios (Units): Let’s Celebrate Costa Rican Culture!, Getting from Here to There, My High School…Our place and Let the Good Times Roll!

The purpose of this document is to provide the ninth grade teachers of the workshop for conversational English, in schools of innovation, with the guidelines and tools to design their  workshops and plan their lessons.

It has three components:
1.    Guidelines.
2.    Workshop components
3.    Planning framework.

This is the Circular DDC-0145-01-2017 "Disposiciones para el planeamiento didáctico en lenguas extranjeras"

English teachers have to design their lesson plans according to these regulations.
