A teacher supplied students with a list of verbs in their infinitive forms, and asked them to look for the past forms of the indicated verbs (which are regular and irregular ones). He/She oriented learners to observe strutural and spelling similarities and divergencies while accomplishing the task. In order to complete the assignment students would use a cellphone app indicated by the teacher, and also work in pairs. The ability which the activity described specifically seeks to improve is:

        Task-based Teaching (TBT) – and Task-based Learning (TBL) – is the approach that TESOL Advantage advocates as best practice when it comes to English language teaching. While TBT’s basic principles are derived from CLT (Communicative Language Teaching), there are some important differences. Critics of CLT have raised the following concerns:

           1.Teachers can struggle with the non-specific requirements of CLT.
       2.Teachers are often worried about giving up too much control during a CLT exercise.
       3.Many learners have low intrinsic motivation to communicate in a foreign language and so struggle with CLT student-centric exercises.
     4.Because CLT is a meaning-focused approach, learners may struggle with grammar issues.
      TBT addresses all of these concerns. It gives teachers a specific requirement to focus on – getting the students to complete a task. Teachers worried about their classes becoming chaotic because of a lack of structure in the lesson now have clear steps that create guidelines and boundaries – a pre-task, task and post-task. Students become more empowered and motivated when they complete tasks because they ‘own’ the language and control the task response. While TBT definitely has a greater focus on meaning than form, teachers can add an optional language focus at the end of a task to cover any grammatical issues that the task highlighted.

          Dulzura

by Sandra Cisneros.

Make love to me in Spanish.

Not with that other tongue.

I want you juntito a mi,

tender like the language

crooned to babies.

I want to be that

lullabied, mi bien

querido, that loved.

I want you inside

the mouth of my heart,

inside the harp of my wrists,

the sweet meat of the mango,

in the gold that dangles

from my ears and neck.

Say my name. Say it.

The way it’s supposed to be said.

I want to know that I knew you

even before I knew you.
