Martha C, Carrillo

Estimados estudiantes y padres de familia:

El presente taller tiene como fin agilizar y facilitar el aprendizaje en la asignatura de inglés, aportando
los fundamentos básicos que se desarrollarán en clase y una serie de ejercicios que servirán de práctica
permitiendo el afianzamiento del conocimiento impartido en el aula.

Los buenos resultados en el aprendizaje de un idioma se dan con el manejo concienzudo y reiterado del
vocabulario y el desarrollo de actividades relacionadas con él.

No se debe olvidar que de acuerdo a los nuevos parámetros de evaluación y promoción de la

Institución, es obligatorio la realización del examen final de período. En la asignatura de inglés este
examen se basará en este taller, por esta razón hay suficientes ejercicios que desarrollan las destrezas
para lograr una óptima valoración en el mismo.

La supervisión de la realización de los ejercicios es un deber compartido entre los padres en primera
instancia y la profesora, quien en clase absolverá las dudas que surjan, pero insisto es necesario el
acompañamiento del padre de familia o acudiente.

Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior, y como otra manera de contribuir con el estudiante y el padre de familia
se ha puesto a su disposición por la Internet el sitio: www.laprofemartha.jimdo.com donde encontrará,
videos, canciones, ejercicios en línea y otras actividades que le facilitarán un buen desempeño en clase.

Con mis mejores deseos para que este período sea fructífero y de mucho éxito.

Gracias por leer este mensaje.

Con afecto,

Martha
