the Student’s Learning Guide with directions in each activity (remember you can add or adjust the
activities according to the needs of the group), you will find in the box below explanations about
the approach / methodology as well as the skills/abilities needed to be developed by students
aligned to Currículo Paulista and Base Nacional Comum Curricular, and a Weekly Learning Exit
Ticket template that help students monitor their learning progress. You will also find Adaptação
Curricular para o estudante Surdo which brings important suggestions that will help you while
preparing/adapting your lessons.
By the end of the lesson(s), you will be better able to:

Adapted from a Lesson Plan Template from Arizona State University (2019)
The template above contains some concepts taken from Content and Language Integrated Learning
– CLIL. It is an approach or method, which integrates the teaching of content from the curriculum with
the teaching of a non-native language. CLIL sometimes is referred to ‘4 Cs’ as components:
Culture - The role of culture, understanding ourselves and other cultures is an important part of CLIL
approach. We want to develop learners who have positive attitudes and who become aware of the
responsibilities of global as well as local citizenship.
Content - CLIL develops cross-curricular links among different subjects. Teachers need to analyze
content for its language demands and to present content in an understandable way.
Cognition - CLIL promotes cognitive or thinking skills, which challenge learners. These skills include
reasoning, creative thinking and evaluating. Teachers need to analyze thinking processes for their
language demands and to teach learners the language they need to express their thoughts and ideas.
Communication - Learners must produce subject language in both oral and written forms. Students
need to be encouraged to participate in meaningful interaction in the classroom.

There are three parts on Student’s Learning Guide:


1. “Culture/Content/Cognition (Learning Outcomes)” indicates teaching aims that will be developed by
students. In the cognitive process students will develop aims to integrate culture, content and communication.1

2. “Communication” follows the idea from Michael Halliday (1976) that identifies three major simultaneous
relationships between language and learning.
- Language OF learning uses language coming from the content areas such as science or social studies. It
involves the type of discourse used by experts such as mathematicians, historians, and scientists. This can
be modeled, collaboratively constructed, and finally used independently through a gradual release of
responsibility sequence (Fisher and Frey, 2013; Gibbons, 2009). This includes vocabulary.
- Language FOR learning identifies the purpose for using the language. These are language functions such
as speech acts used in comparing, summarizing, describing concepts and processes. They can be
introduced in the form of sentence frames (i.e., It is …. in…. / If ..., then....) (Kinsella, 2013; Shafer Willner,
2013).
- Language THROUGH learning is developed on demand, within the learning task. This type of language is
supported within dialogic, academic conversations because it is recycled, practiced, and becomes more
precise the more it is used (Zwiers, 2014).

3. “Instruments for Assessment” suggests a different focus of assessment on areas of subject content
and on communication skills, cognitive skills and practical skills. Teachers need to put learners at the center
of the process and to find out what standards are achievable when they study subject content in non-native
language2. It is important to make sure your objectives, learning activities, and assessment indicators are
aligned. You assess the learning objectives, not the activities.

Adaptação Curricular para o estudante Surdo

Olá, professor (a)! Este material traz sugestões de adaptações curriculares para o desenvolvimento das atividades para
os alunos Surdos.
As adaptações estão identificadas em caixas de texto com títulos azuis e um ícone criado para este material que
representa as identidades surdas, pois neste universo temos estudantes que são seres individuais e compartilham da
Língua de Sinais para se comunicarem e também adquirir uma segunda língua, neste caso, a Língua Inglesa.
Quando pensamos em adaptação curricular é necessário ter em mente que são ajustes realizados no plano de aula
quanto ao objetivo, à metodologia e à avaliação. Ao preparar a aula, precisa-se de uma intencionalidade do(a)
professor(a) para a turma e outra para o estudante com deficiência.
Diante disso, vamos refletir sobre um possível caminho a percorrer quando nos referimos ao ensino de língua estrangeira
para estudantes Surdos:
○ Peça ao estudante que providencie um caderno para ser utilizado como banco de palavras.
○ Converse com o interlocutor sobre a função desse caderno. Durante as aulas, o interlocutor, orientado pelo(a)
professor(a), auxiliará o estudante na construção do conceito (significado e significante) de cada vocábulo em língua
estrangeira, sendo registrado no banco de palavras, que ao longo do ano será utilizado como fonte de consulta para a
realização de atividades.
○ Defina qual será o vocabulário enfatizado durante a aula. Separe o vocabulário por classe gramatical, a princípio inicie
com substantivos e verbos e com o passar do tempo inclua as demais de acordo com a sua intencionalidade: pronomes,
adjetivos, advérbios e numerais; Cabe pontuar que em Libras usa-se poucas conjunções, preposições e artigos, pois
estão incorporados às palavras que se referem.
○ Ao longo da aula, defina com o estudante e o interlocutor uma cor para a classe gramatical que estará em estudo, pois
será utilizada no decorrer das aulas subsequentes.
○ O estudante deverá pintar a palavra, o interlocutor fará a construção em libras do significado do vocábulo e só então a
palavra nova irá para o banco de palavras do estudante.
○ O segredo não é pintar muitas palavras ou todas de determinada classe gramatical em um único dia, mas a qualidade
da discussão e a construção do significado. Para isso, utilize recursos visuais, vídeos, imagens e ou simulações de cenas
teatrais com a participação dos estudantes ouvintes promovendo o engajamento do estudante surdo. Estimamos que se o
estudante se apropriar de cinco (5) palavras em uma aula, ao longo de um bimestre, dezesseis (16) aulas, serão oitenta
palavras (80), que ao longo do ano se tornarão duzentas e quarenta (240). Depois que ele se apropriar deste movimento,
o céu será o limite. Esta estratégia pode ser utilizada com a turma toda!
○ Quando a palavra já estudada aparecer em aulas posteriores, não deverá ser pintada, mas consultada no banco de
palavras e neste momento é hora de verificar se houve a apropriação do vocabulário.
○ Por fim, COMEMORE com seu estudante cada conquista! Eleve a autoestima dele construindo laços de afetividade.
Desta forma, o aprender será prazeroso e permanente, pois o que toca a emoção, negativamente ou positivamente é
perpetuado. Acesse o link abaixo para entender um pouco mais:

used in every single class.
a) Do you know what the five senses are? Read the text below and circle the words you
don’t know.

MY FIVE SENSES

We have five senses: sight, smell, taste, hearing and touch. The five human senses play a unique role
by receiving signal information from the environment through the sense organs and sending it to the
human brain for interpretation. When the brain receives and interprets the information, it tells the
body how to respond. The sense organs in our body include the eyes, ears, skin, nose, and tongue.

Source: Text produced specially for this material.

b) Using a dictionary, look up the meaning of the words you circled in the text.

c) Complete the sentences with the name of each part of the human body responsible for
the following abilities.

be the character Robert. Then students must change roles. Explain to students the use of the
imperative verb through the verbs that are in bold and underlined in the text.

• Ask students to list the figures according to the order or advice that is represented by the image.

Curricular Adaptation

• Ask students to use the word bank notebook to remember the keywords to complete the senteces;
• Ask the interpreter to signal the sentences and construct the meaning of new keywords with the
students and ask students about what they understood about the sentences.
a) Complete the sentences below with the words from the box.

EARS – TONGUE – NOSE – EYES - HANDS

• Ask students to start using the organizer with the word CAKE;
• Use the organizer model in other situation to construct the meaning of the words or expressions.
a) Do you like cakes? Read the text below and answer the questions. Don’t forget to circle
the words you don’t know and look up their meaning in a dictionary.

WHO INVENTED THE CAKE?

The history of the cake suggests it was created in An-


cient Egypt. It was made from bread sweetened with fruits,
syrups, and raisins. Afterwards, the Romans improved the
recipe using fermentation techniques and named it “cake”,
because of its round shape (coming from the ball). This
served as the basis for the many recipes we know and love
nowadays.

activity.

1. What are Marta and Robert doing? They are preparing a cake.

2. According to Robert, how does the dough taste? It tastes sweet and delicious.
ACTIVITY 6

• Ask students to pay attention to different sounds, the sounds of silence. Although it is difficult to be silent in schools,
tell them to be quiet for 30 seconds, trying to identify what they hear and choose the options in the chart. Answers
are personal they will depend on students’ perceptions;
• Motivate students to compare their answers, following the frame to make a conversation;
• Explain to students the difference between pleasant and unpleasant. Tell them to choose the image options they
consider pleasant by marking with a blue pen and unpleasant with a red pen;
• Ask students to compare notes taken and discuss the musical styles they know to fill out the organizer. In pairs,
students should compare their responses and present the impressions of the pairs to the class, following the model;
• Read the text with the students, call their attention to cognate words, and tell them to circulate the words they think
are fundamental for understanding, to look them up in the dictionary and answer the questions.
Curricular adaptation

• Ask students what kind of sounds they can hear (some students can hear strong sounds);
• Ask the interpreter to provide the interaction with the classmates;
• Ask students to look at the pictures and say which one they like best in terms of shape and colors (some of them
look unpleasant, others are pleasant);
• Ask students to complete the chart below by painting with a blue pen the squares representing the visual that they
consider pleasant and with a red pen those they consider unpleasant.
a) For this activity, first close your eyes for 30 seconds and focus only on the things you
hear. Try to identify as many sounds as you can, then mark on the chart those you were
able to recognize.

Image: Pixabay.

I WAS ABLE TO HEAR: ( ) People talking;


( ) My friends’/ my own breathing;
( ) My teacher walking;
( ) A desk/chair being dragged;
( ) The fan spinning;
( ) A window or door being closed/opened;
( ) Cars passing by the street;
( ) A car horn;
( ) An airplane passing by;
( ) Birds singing;

Others:
b) Compare your chart with a friend and then share it with the class. You can use the frame
below as a model:

During these 30 seconds, I was able to hear a car horn, people talking in the other classrooms and
people dragging a chair or a desk.

c) Thanks to the ears and the hearing sense, people can recognize sounds. Some of them
are unpleasant, like scratches on a board or too loud noises, others are pleasant, like
birds singing and music. Complete the chart below by marking with a blue pen the
squares representing the sounds you consider pleasant and with a red pen those you
consider unpleasant.
Answers are personal.

Images: Pixabay.
d) Compare your chart with a friend’s one. Did you both fill out the chart in the same way?
People have different likes, and this is applied to sounds too. That’s why it is not
everybody who likes pop music, or rock, samba, etc. Complete the visual organizer with
the names of the music styles you know.

e) In pairs, compare the information from your visual organizers to write sentences about
the music styles you consider pleasant or unpleasant. Follow the example:

My friend and I consider pop music pleasant.

I think rock music is unpleasant, but my friend considers it pleasant.

1. My friend and I consider rock music pleasant.

2. I think samba music unpleasant, but Bob considers it pleasant.

3. Kate and I consider pop music pleasant.

4. I think hip hop music unpleasant, but Mark considers it pleasant.

5. Jen and I consider blues music pleasant.


f) Read the text in order to answer the questions. Don’t forget to circle the words you don’t
know and search for their meaning using a dictionary.

DID YOU KNOW ANIMALS CAN


SEE THROUGH THE SOUND?

Some animals, like bats and


dolphins, need to move and hunt in
very dark environments. That’s why
they are equipped with a system
called “echolocation”. These ani-
mals emit sounds at an extremely
high frequency. These sounds hit
objects and other animals. That’s

1. Which animals can use echolocation?


Some animals like bats, dolphins, whales and nocturnal birds.

2. How does echolocation work?


Animals make sounds at an extremely high frequency. These sounds hit objects and other animals
and return through the echo.
ACTIVITY 7
• Tell students that this activity is about the sense of smell, elicit them to talk about the theme, read the text, circle the
words they don’t know and look up their meaning in a dictionary;
• Ask students to fill out the organizer with words from the text related to “nose”, than read definitions and connect
them to the bold words from the text;
• Motivate students to compile a picture dictionary, following the model. They have to find images of things they
appreciate the smell, its definition and elaborate a sentence. Decide with the group if it will be a personal “Pictionary”
or for the whole class;
• Discuss with the class what they know about animals and their olfactory system. Read the text and help students
research for animals with the strongest sense of smell and, following the frames, present their findings to the class.
Curricular adaptation

Tell the interpreter to provide the interaction betweenthe deaf students and the class;
Tell the interpreter to explain the meaning of each word in Brazilian Sign Language;
After that, the students write down the new words in the word bank notebook. See the explanation in the introduction of this guide;
Ask the interpreter to review the words from the word bank notebook. Ask students to read the words every single class as a strategy to
memorize the vocabulary.

a) Read the text below. Don’t forget to circle the words you don’t know and look up their
meaning using a dictionary.
HOW DO WE SENSE SMELL?

Our nose has three very important functions: respiration, speech, and the sense of smell. Inside our
olfactory system, there are cells called olfactory receptor neurons. Humans have between 10 and
20 million cells like these and it is thanks to them that we can detect at least 1 trillion smells.

b) Complete the visual organizer with words from the text you can relate to nose.

c) Read the following definitions according to The Cambridge Dictionary and relate them
to the bold words from the text:

RESPIRATION – NEURON – OLFACTORY – SPEECH - SMELL

1. “The process of breathing.” RESPIRATION

2. “A nerve cell that carries information between the brain and other parts of the body.”
NEURON

3. “Connected with the ability to smell.” OLFACTORY

4. “The ability to talk, the activity of talking or a piece of spoken language.” SPEECH

5. “The characteristic of something that can be recognized or noticed using the nose.”
SMELL

d) Think about something whose smell you like. After that, write the name of it in a card
(like the example below), look up its definition in a dictionary, and write its definition and
a sentence. Draw a picture of it. Choose at least 10 words. After you finish, share your
Pictionary with your friends.

NAME: Bread

DEFINITION:
“A food made from flour, water, and usually yeast, mixed
together and baked”.

cambridge.org/. Accessed on June 17, 2020.

SENTENCE:
Image: Pixabay. “I love the smell of hot bread”.

e) Do you think you have a good sense of smell? Read the text below:

DID YOU KNOW THERE ARE ANIMALS THAT CAN DETECT SMELLS FROM MILES AWAY?

In order to hunt, or run away from predators, some animals developed a heightened sense of smell
through evolution. Depending on the breed, a dog, possesses around 200 million olfactory receptor
neurons. That’s a lot more than what we humans possess. And dogs aren’t the animals that have the
best sense of smell on the planet.

f) Do a research and find the animals that have the strongest sense of smell on the
planet. Choose one of these animals and then complete the chart below with the
information about them:

SPECIES: There are 8 species – Polar Bear, North American Black Bear, Brown Bear, Asiatic

Black Bear, Andean Bear, Panda Bear, Sloth Bear And Sun Bear.
g) Present your research using the text below as a model. You can also bring a picture of
the animal you chose to show to your friends.

The animal I chose is the Silk Moth.


It can be found in China, India, Japan, and
other Asian countries.
It is an insect.
A male moth can sense the scent of the
female’s hormones from at least one mile
away.
An interesting fact about this animal is that
moths don’t have a nose. They sense smell
with their antennae, which are covered in
scent receptors.

cases, books and others). After that, blindfold a classmate and give one of the objects to
him/her. He/she must guess what the object is only by touching it. Make it a competition to see
who can guess the greatest number of objects.

a) In the previous activity, you were able to identify the objects thanks to the sense of
touch. Read the text below to learn more about it and then answer the questions.

THE SENSE OF TOUCH


The human body has a very large organ called skin. The skin covers the whole human body and is
responsible for the sense of touch.
Under our superficial layer of skin, we have receptor cells that receive external stimuli and send the
necessary information to our brain for us to respond to the stimuli. They allow us to detect textures,
temperatures, contours, shapes, vibrations, pressure, weight, tension, and pain.

Source: Text produced specially for this material.

1. Which organ is responsible for the sense of touch? The skin.

2. What can we detect with the sense of touch? We can detect textures, temperatures,
contours, shapes, vibrations, pressure, weight, tension and pain.

Adapted from a Lesson Plan Template from Arizona State University (2019)

The template above contains some concepts taken from Content and Language Integrated
Learning – CLIL. It is an approach or method, which integrates the teaching of content from the
curriculum with the teaching of a non-native language. CLIL sometimes is referred to ‘4 Cs’ as components:
Culture - The role of culture, understanding ourselves and other cultures, is an important part of
CLIL approach. We want to develop learners who have positive attitudes and who become aware
of the responsibilities of global as well as local citizenship.
Content - CLIL develops cross-curricular links among different subjects. Teachers need to
analyze content for its language demands and to present content in an understandable way.
Cognition - CLIL promotes cognitive or thinking skills, which challenge learners. These skills
include reasoning, creative thinking and evaluating. Teachers need to analyze thinking processes
for their language demands and to teach learners the language they need to express their
thoughts and ideas.
Communication - Learners must produce subject language in both oral and written forms.
Students need to be encouraged to participate in meaningful interaction in the classroom.

There are three parts on the Student’s Learning Guide:


1. “Culture/Content/Cognition (Learning Outcomes)” indicates teaching aims that will be developed
by students. In the cognitive process students will develop aims to integrate culture, content and
communication.3

2. “Communication” follows the idea from Michael Halliday (1976) that identifies three major
simultaneous relationships between language and learning.
- Language OF learning uses language coming from the content areas such as science or social
studies. It involves the type of discourse used by experts such as mathematicians, historians, and
scientists. This can be modeled, collaboratively constructed, and finally used independently through a
gradual release of responsibility sequence (Fisher and Frey, 2013; Gibbons, 2009). This includes
vocabulary.
- Language FOR learning identifies the purpose for using the language. These are language functions
such as speech acts used in comparing, summarizing, describing concepts and processes. They can
be introduced in the form of sentence frames (i.e., It is …. in…. / If ..., then....) (Kinsella, 2013; Shafer
Willner, 2013).
- Language THROUGH learning is developed on demand, within the learning task. This type of
language is supported within dialogic, academic conversations because it is recycled, practiced, and

becomes more precise the more it is used (Zwiers, 2014).

3. “Instruments for Assessment” suggests a different focus of assessment on areas of subject


content and on communication skills, cognitive skills and practical skills. Teachers need to put learners
at the center of the process and to find out what standards are achievable when they study subject
content in non-native language4. It is important to make sure your objectives, learning activities, and
assessment indicators are aligned. You assess the learning objectives, not the activities.

Adaptação Curricular para o estudante Surdo

Olá, professor (a)! Este material traz sugestões de adaptações curriculares para o
desenvolvimento das atividades para os alunos Surdos.
As adaptações estão identificadas em caixas de texto com títulos azuis e um ícone criado
para este material que representa as identidades surdas, pois neste universo temos estudantes que
são seres individuais e compartilham da Língua de Sinais para se comunicarem e também adquirir
uma segunda língua, neste caso, a Língua Inglesa.
Quando pensamos em adaptação curricular é necessário ter em mente que são ajustes
realizados no plano de aula quanto ao objetivo, à metodologia e à avaliação. Ao preparar a aula,
precisa-se de uma intencionalidade do(a) professor(a) para a turma e outra para o estudante com
deficiência.
Diante disso, vamos refletir sobre um possível caminho a percorrer quando nos referimos
ao ensino de língua estrangeira para estudantes Surdos:
○ Peça ao estudante que providencie um caderno para ser utilizado como banco de
palavras.
○ Converse com o interlocutor sobre a função desse caderno. Durante as aulas, o
interlocutor, orientado pelo(a) professor(a), auxiliará o estudante na construção do conceito
(significado e significante) de cada vocábulo em língua estrangeira, sendo registrado no banco de
palavras, que ao longo do ano será utilizado como fonte de consulta para a realização de atividades.
○ Defina qual será o vocabulário enfatizado durante a aula. Separe o vocabulário por classe
gramatical, a princípio inicie com substantivos e verbos e com o passar do tempo inclua as demais
de acordo com a sua intencionalidade, pronomes, adjetivos, advérbios e numerais. Cabe pontuar
que em Libras usam-se poucas conjunções, preposições e artigos, pois estão incorporados às
palavras que se referem.
○ Ao longo da aula, defina com o estudante e o interlocutor uma cor para a classe gramatical
que estará em estudo, pois será utilizada no decorrer das aulas subsequentes.
○ O estudante deverá pintar a palavra, o interlocutor fará a construção em libras do
significado do vocábulo e só então a palavra nova irá para o banco de palavras do estudante.
○ O segredo não é pintar muitas palavras ou todas de determinada classe gramatical em
um único dia, mas a qualidade da discussão e a construção do significado. Para isso, utilize
recursos visuais, vídeos, imagens e ou simulações de cenas teatrais com a participação dos
estudantes ouvintes promovendo o engajamento do estudante surdo. Estimamos que se o
estudante se apropriar de cinco (5) palavras em uma aula, ao longo de um bimestre, dezesseis (16)
aulas, serão oitenta palavras (80), que ao longo do ano se tornarão duzentas e quarenta (240).
Depois que ele se apropriar deste movimento, o céu será o limite. Esta estratégia pode ser utilizada
com a turma toda!
○ Quando a palavra já estudada aparecer em aulas posteriores, não deverá ser pintada,
mas consultada no banco de palavras e neste momento é hora de verificar se houve a apropriação
do vocabulário.
○ Por fim, COMEMORE com seu estudante cada conquista! Eleve a autoestima dele
construindo laços de afetividade. Desta forma, o aprender será prazeroso e permanente, pois o que
toca a emoção, negativamente ou positivamente é perpetuado. Acesse o link abaixo para entender

ACTIVITY 1
KWL is a useful tool in the beginning, during and after a lesson or unit. Write one on the board just like the
example on the student’s guide.
• Elicit from students what they know about logic;
• With the students’ answers, fill the first and the second column on the board;
• Explain to the students that in this unit they will learn about logic;
• By the end of the activities, ask students to come back to this KWL chart and fill out the third column with
what they have learned about the topic. The information students will give to you is very important and can
be part of a recovery plan, according to their needs.

Curricular Adaptation

• Ask the interpreter to signal what the deaf students know about logic;
• Ask the interpreter to signal the teacher and classmates’ voices all the time to guarantee
the inclusion of deaf students;
• Ask the interpreter to signal what the deaf student wants to know. At this moment, the interlocutor
can use only Brazilian Sign Language;
• Select the keywords with the interpreter;
• The keywords are the ones that students will be able to learn and that will contribute to their
learning process.

a) What do you know about logic? Fill out the first and the second columns of
the KWL chart. Leave the third column in blank.

ACTIVITY 2
• Students should open this booklet and pay attention to the table below;
• Have the expressions: a doctor, a good cook and a good singer on the board, as well as the subject
pronouns I, He and She;
• Elicit from students the relationship among the pronouns and the phrases;

• Using new examples on the board, guide students to identify the difference between noun and noun phrases;

• Ask students to look at the Venn Diagram. Emphasize the parts that should be filled in. The middle one
should describe the function of the pronouns or, as it is written in the exercise, “What do they have in
common?”;

• Explain how the table was built. In the first column there are persons; on the second and third actions.
Students must identify who performed the action to answer the questions from part “c”. Here is a clue: the
drawings will lead them to the right answers;

• Show the students the examples of the language described in the first column. Analyzing them, they must
fill the second and third columns in, with subject and object pronouns. Use the first sentence as an example
on the board.

Curricular Adaptation

• Explain to students the subjects pronouns and object pronouns;


• Ask the interpreter to show in sign language the meaning of these pronouns;
• Ask students what they understood;
• Ask students to fill out the blanks with a drawing to represent each pronouns;
• Ask the interpreter to provide the interaction in sign language of the discuss.
a) Look at the table below. Pay attention to the highlighted words. Is there a relationship
between them? Answer this question on the Venn diagram below.

The subject/ object pronoun is a word that can replace a noun or noun phrase?
• Subject pronouns: I, you, he, she, it, we, they.
• Object pronouns: me, you, her, him, it, us, them.
a) The diagram below is called Venn Diagram. Make a list of the subject pronoun and a list
of the object pronouns. What do they have in common? Write your answer in the middle
of the diagram.

ACTIVITY 3
• Motivate the students to read the text, using strategies they have already known. The point is clarifying the
difference between cardinal and ordinal numbers;

• On the board, give examples of the use of cardinal and ordinal numbers, using the teacher’s list. The cardinal and
ordinal numbers table may help you. Focus the students’ attention on the explanation from the table: “how many”
and “position”. After that, guide the students to fill the blanks in, according to the questions;

• Ask students about their previous knowledge about “logic”: what it means, when the word is used, for what logic
is used, etc. Encourage the group to read the text, pointing the keywords highlighted;

• Ask the students to pay attention to the mind map. They have to complete it using the information from the
previous text.

Curricular Adaptation
• Use the images to construct the meaning of the concept of ordinal numbers and cardinal
numbers;
• Ask students to signal what they understood;
• Ask students to add new words in the word bank notebook;
• Ask the interpreter to provide the interaction in sign language.

Images: Pixabay
a) Read the text:

ENGLISH… NUMBERS… LOGIC.


A Cardinal Number is a number that says how many of something there are, such as one, two, three,
four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
An Ordinal Number is a number that tells the position of something in a list, such as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th,
5th, etc.
Most ordinal numbers end in “th”, except for:

I. one ⇒ first (1st)


II. two ⇒ second (2nd)
III. three ⇒ third (3rd)

b) Think of the first letter of your name. Are you the eleventh on your teacher´s list? Who
comes first? Who is next? How many students are there in your classroom?
Answers are personal.
My first name starts with .
There are in my classroom.

c) Read the information below very carefully. There are highlighted words to help you
understand what logic is.

The word logic refers to a systematic, reasoned way of thinking, usually used to solve a problem or to
understand a situation. Logic grid puzzles include a graphic organizer (in this case, a grid) that helps
students keep track of information in the puzzle’s clues, use the process of elimination, and make
inferences that will lead them to the puzzle’s solution.

ACTIVITY 4
• Tell the group they will face a logic challenge. Guide them throughout the bird’s pictures and names from the chart.
After that, read the command and explain it;
• Motivate the students to explore the birds’ facts. As they analyze and compare these facts, they will be able to guess,
refuse and confirm the bird that corresponds to each number. They should write their answers in the last column.

Curricular Adaptation

• Explore the new vocabulary with the images;


• Agree with the interpreter what keywords of the chart BIRD FACTS the students need to solve the puzzle;
• Ask students to add new keywords in the word bank notebook.

a) In the next chart are the names and pictures of ten birds around the world. We have
assigned each of these birds a secret number. We can only tell you that the peacock is
number 7. Your job is to figure out the rest of the secret numbers.

b) The bird facts below give information about these birds by their secret numbers, not by
their names. Compare the bird facts to determine which number goes with which bird.
Then write the name of the bird next to its number.

ACTIVITY 5
• Tell the students people, animals, plants, objects, buildings, and other stuff usually share the same space. A
good example to be given is the classroom. Explore the positions of some things in the classroom: the board
is in front of/before the students; the windows are on the right side of the classroom, etc. After that, direct
the students to investigate the chart, aiming to discover and understand the function and the meaning of the
place prepositions and expressions;

• Challenge the students to use their creativity to produce their dream city, dream house or dream bedroom.
They can draw, develop a map / plan, or even describe it with words. Encourage them to use the words and
expressions from the previous activity to make their job accurately.

Curricular Adaptation

• Use the images below to construct the meaning of words to talking about positions;
• Ask students to add new keywords in the word bank notebook;
• Ask the interpreter to provide the discuss the position of the dog, places, and objects in sign language;
• Ask students to draw your dream city, your dream house or your dream bedroom;
• Ask students to use the word bank notebook to write a subtitle.

ACTIVITY 6
• Divide students into groups of three or four and ask them to draw the domino. As it is a review activity, you can
select more topics to review;
• The examples below are just a few ideas of what you can do;
• Give students more topics (from 6th grade, for example, you can review the apostrophe);
• After they have finished creating the domino, ask them to get together in small groups;
• One student starts reading the definition on the first domino, the colleagues look for the word it defines, and the
person who has the domino with the word that matches the definition must call it out.

Curricular Adaptation

• Ask the interpreter to provide the interaction in sign language with the classmates;
• Ask students to use the word bank to consult the vocabulary;
• Ask students to read in sign language to construct your mental storyboard with the help of the
interpreter;
• Ask students to add new keywords in the word bank notebook.

a) In pairs or groups of three, you can start reading the definition on the first domino, and
your colleagues look for the word it defines. The person who has the domino with the
word that matches the definition must call it out.

ACTIVITY 7

• Tell students they are going to work together to solve puzzles;


• PUZZLE 1: before starting this item, make the students aware they will face three different puzzles that involve
logic and place prepositions and expressions. Then, explain they must place the colored fish into the numbered
tanks, according to the clues. The movement is the same from the exercise with the birds: read the clues, predict,
refuse, and, in the end, confirm the right tank for each fish;
• PUZZLE 2: it is recommended to correct the previous item, before starting this one. Knowing the strategies used
by the students to solve item “a”, you will be able to offer more strict directions for the new ones;
• Make the students look at the fish from item “b”, commenting on the names and characteristics of the fish. Then,
show them the three rows (across) and the three columns (up and down) formed by the tanks, highlighting the
terms “top”, “middle” and “bottom” to refer to each row. Read the command and, after explaining it, take the
students to the investigation of the clues;
• Encourage students to interact in English, using the speech balloons as a model. They should be persistent in
reading the clues, predicting, refusing and, after all, confirming the allocation for each fish;

• PUZZLE 3: tell students they are going to work together to solve puzzles, demonstrate the process. You and the
class will work together to complete a puzzle about people’s food orders in an American restaurant;

• Present or review any target vocabulary items you have identified. Use descriptions, text, drawing, miming,
elicitation, or other preferred techniques;

• Explain to students that they will use these vocabulary items and a graphic organizer called “logic grid” to figure out
which person ordered each meal. Model how to complete a logic grid by using the provided clues about breakfast
orders. Draw the following grid on the board. Write the list of clues below the grid.

Scrambled eggs Omelet with Yogurt with


and sausage cheese and toast fruit and honey
Beto
Eduardo
Maria

Beto does not like to eat sweet food for breakfast.


Maria does not like eggs.
Eduardo always eats eggs and meat for breakfast.

• Tell students, “Three people, named Beto, Eduardo, and Maria, have ordered breakfast. One person ordered
scrambled eggs and sausage; another ordered an omelet with cheese and toast; and the other ordered yogurt with
fruit and honey. Which person ordered each breakfast?”
• Explain that the breakfast orders are listed across the top of the grid, and the people’s names are listed in the left-
hand column. Tell the students they must use the clues to identify each person’s breakfast order. Explain that each
person ordered a different meal.

• Work through the clues with the class and show them how to mark a logic grid to keep track of the information. Ask
a volunteer to read the first clue aloud. Ask the class to tell you which item Beto did not order since he doesn’t like
sweet food for breakfast (the answer is “yogurt with fruit and honey”). Put an X in the box that aligns with “Beto” and
“yogurt with fruit and honey,” and tell students that an X represents an incorrect combination of person and meal
choice. Depending on your students’ level, you can explain that this logic technique of removing incorrect
information from a problem is called “the process of elimination.”
• Repeat the process with the next clue. Since Maria doesn’t like eggs, you can place an X in each of the first two
columns in Maria’s row:

Scrambled eggs Omelet with Yogurt with


and sausage cheese and toast fruit and honey
Beto X
Eduardo
Maria X X

• Ask the students if they know what Maria ordered, since two choices have been eliminated. When they reply, “Yes,
yogurt with fruit and honey,” place an O in the box that aligns with “Maria” and “yogurt with fruit and honey.”
Explain that an O represents a correct match. Also, put an X in the middle square in the last column to show that
only Maria ordered yogurt with fruit and honey (and that therefore, Eduardo didn’t).

Scrambled eggs Omelet with Yogurt with


and sausage cheese and toast fruit and honey
Beto X
Eduardo
Maria X X O

Have a volunteer read the last clue aloud. Ask students if they know which item Eduardo ordered (scrambled eggs and
sausage). Place an O in the box that aligns with “Eduardo” and “scrambled eggs and sausage.” Then demonstrate that since you
know which item Eduardo ordered, you can put an X in the remaining empty box in his row. Marking that information solves
the rest of the puzzle through the process of elimination: you know that only one person, Eduardo, ordered scrambled eggs
and sausage, so you can put an X in the box that aligns with “Beto” and “scrambled eggs and sausage.” After that information is
marked, the only possible combination that remains is that Beto ordered the omelet with cheese and toast:

Scrambled eggs Omelet with Yogurt with


and sausage cheese and toast fruit and honey
Beto X O X
Eduardo O X X
Maria X X O

1. Conclude your demonstration by writing on the board each person’s name and the breakfast he or she ordered:
Beto – omelet with cheese and toast
Eduardo – scrambled eggs and sausage
Maria – yogurt with fruit and honey
Curricular Adaptation

• Use the instructions in the introduction of this guide to work with the new vocabulary;
• Ask students to use the word bank to consult the vocabulary to understand the phrases;
• Ask students to read in sign language to construct your mental storyboard with the help of the interpreter;
• Ask students to add new keywords in the word bank notebook;
• Ask interpreter to provide the interaction in sign language with the classmates.

CLUES

1. The angelfish is in a corner tank, to the left of the clownfish.


2. The mollies are between the lionfish and the butterflyfish, in the same row.
3. The catfish is below the butterflyfish, but it is not in the bottom row.
4. Neither the guppies nor the clownfish are in the top row.
5. The lionfish is in the same column as the angelfish and the guppies.
6. The rainbowfish is in the bottom row, but the mollies are not.
7. The guppies and the catfish are in the same row.
8. The catfish, the clownfish, and the lionfish are not in the same row or in the same column.
9. The guppies are in the tank above the angelfish.
c) Use the speech balloons below to talk with a friend about the Puzzle 2.
d) PUZZLE 3 – Organize with your classmates in pairs (or small groups). Nobody in the pair
or team has all the information needed to solve the puzzle. You can share your clues
orally, but you can’t show each other the written information. Therefore, you must listen
carefully to identify important details.

ACTIVITY 8
• Students should work in pairs or small groups. Guide them throughout the chart: point the names and the different
dishes. Read and explain the command. Then, explore the speech balloons, encouraging the groups to speak in
English. When you present the clues (divided in SET 1 and SET 2), explain to the students they are only allowed to
read and talk about the set of clues they are responsible for, and they cannot let the other colleague(s) of the same
group read them. Sharing the clues contained in the chart – by reading or talking – the pairs / groups have to indicate
in the first chart who eats what;

• This item is based on the same strategy of the previous one: the same pair / group of students sharing information
from different sets of clues. Guide them throughout the chart: point the animals and the different colors. Read and
explain the command. Then, explore the speech balloons, encouraging the groups to talk in English. Walk around the
groups, checking if they are not cheating by letting the colleague(s) read the clues instead of talking by them.
• Follow the same procedure and do motivate your students to solve this item: put students into pairs or groups. Tell
the students they will now work with their partner (or partner team) to solve a more complicated logic grid about food
orders;
• Tell the class that each partner (or partner team) will have a different set of clues. Students must not show their clues to
their partners. Partners must solve the puzzle by taking turns talking about the clues, listening carefully for details,
agreeing on the clues’ meaning, and then using a logic grid to mark their progress. The two partners (or partner teams)
will share the same logic grid;

• Pass out the clues and the logic grids and tell students they may want to use a pencil to complete the grid in case they
need to make changes. Remind students not to show each other their clues. Based on your students’ English proficiency
level, decide on the amount of time they will have to solve the puzzles; share that information with the class. Tell the
partners (or partner teams) to begin solving the puzzle. When they are finished, the students should write a list showing
each person’s food order;

• Monitor the students’ progress and answer any questions that arise. When students think they have the solution, they
should check their answers with you, or compare answers with another pair or group. Partners that finish first can begin
another puzzle, make their own logic grid puzzle, or complete another activity, such as silent reading.

• When time is up, briefly review the solution with the whole class. If some partners (or partner teams) are still working,
encourage students who have finished sharing their logic strategies with the group.

ACTIVITY 8
• Considering the schedule, the research suggested in this item may be asked previously, as homework or done
at school, during the classes. Count on the students’ mobiles or take the group to the computer lab;
• Tell the students the final product of this activity (in addition to Activity 9) is to create profiles / short
biographies of important personalities as activists, athletes, writers, scientists, inventors, etc. This job will
be presented at school. Read the command. Then, encourage the students to read George Boole’s biography
(section “Do You Know This Person?”), applying the strategies they have already known. After that, set the
pairs up and. Before the work is started, explain that: they may use the chart “People’s Profile” to register
the results of the research (even if it was done previously or during the classes);
• Read the command and explain it to the students. The “Lateral Key”, by summing up the data about the
personalities, should help the students to choose the ones they would like to work with for the school
presentation. Detail how the Lateral Key must have to be filled in, using the examples of George Boole and
Albert Einstein. In the end, each pair should decide the two personalities they are going to choose for the
final product: profiles / short biographies;
• Encourage them to take this decision talking in English, by having support from the speech balloons.

Curricular Adaptation

• Use the instructions in the introduction of this guide to work with the new vocabulary;
• Ask students to use the word bank to consult the vocabulary to understand the phrases;
• Ask students to add new keywords in the word bank notebook;
• Ask the interpreter to provide the interaction in sign language with the classmates.
a) Go to the internet and find out as much as you can about:

• Maria Firmina dos Reis;


• Martin Luther King;
• Maria Esther Andion Bueno;
• Ayrton Senna;
• Daniel Munduruku;
• Someone from your city;
• Other.
Your school is going to hang copies of your findings on the corridors. Pair up with a friend
and choose two you would like your school to display.
There is an example for you:

Do You Know This Person?


Photo
His name is George Boole. You do not know him, but there is something he helped
create that you probably use every day on the electronic devices you have. Yes,
indirectly, he has helped us with many school work. He was born in 1815, in Lincoln,
England. His father was a shoemaker. He did not have many resources. He ended up
learning a lot at home, alone. He always loved Math. At the age of 14, he already spoke
Greek fluently. He liked to study and, by the age of 19, he started his school, which was
his family’s main source of income. At 25, he had his own boarding school. He never
stopped learning Math, even though he was unable to go to university. It was during
these studies that he realized the logic behind the numbers. This theory helped to give rise, after
many years, to what today we call in Portuguese “dar um google”.

ACTIVITY 9
• Motivate an election among the students to define which personalities will be part of the display. The next
step consists in discover their previous knowledge about Brazilian Cordel. If the group’s ideas are not strong
about the main characteristics of this textual type/genre, suggest quick research;
• The pairs will work on the final version of their profiles/short biographies, considering the Cordel
characteristics. Besides that, the group should prepare the school halls/aisles/corridors fixing
threads/hopes/wires as clotheslines to hang the profiles / short biographies using clothespins;
• Before asking students to fill out the KWL Chart from Activity 1 – specifically the column “What I have
learned” – remember them the learning path you have been through: the learning outcomes, the contents,
the aspects of the languages and the activities.

Curricular Adaptation

• Use the instructions in the introduction of this guide to work with the new vocabulary;

TEACHER´S GUIDE
This volume has activities to be developed during the fourth bimester of the school year. Besides the
Student’s Learning Guide with directions in each activity (remember you can add or adjust the activities
according to the needs of the group), you will find in the box below explanations about the approach /
methodology as well as the skills/abilities needed to be developed by students aligned to Currículo
Paulista and Base Nacional Comum Curricular, and a Weekly Learning Exit Ticket template that help
students monitor their learning progress. You will also find Adaptação Curricular para o estudante Surdo
which brings important suggestions that will help you while preparing/adapting your lessons.

By the end of the lesson(s), you will be better able to:

Adapted from a Lesson Plan Template from Arizona State University (2019).

The template above contains some concepts taken from Content and Language Integrated
Learning – CLIL. It is an approach or method, which integrates the teaching of content from the
curriculum with the teaching of a non-native language. CLIL sometimes is referred to ‘4 Cs’ as components:
Culture - The role of culture, understanding ourselves and other cultures, is an important part of
CLIL approach. We want to develop learners who have positive attitudes and who become aware
of the responsibilities of global as well as local citizenship.
Content - CLIL develops cross-curricular links among different subjects. Teachers need to
analyze content for its language demands and to present content in an understandable way.
Cognition - CLIL promotes cognitive or thinking skills, which challenge learners. These skills
include reasoning, creative thinking and evaluating. Teachers need to analyze thinking processes
for their language demands and to teach learners the language they need to express their
thoughts and ideas.
Communication - Learners must produce subject language in both oral and written forms.
Students need to be encouraged to participate in meaningful interaction in the classroom.

There are three parts on Student’s Learning Guide:


1. “Culture/Content/Cognition (Learning Outcomes)” indicates teaching aims that will be developed
by students. In the cognitive process students will develop aims to integrate culture, content and
communication.5

2. “Communication” follows the idea from Michael Halliday (1976) that identifies three major
simultaneous relationships between language and learning.
- Language OF learning uses language coming from the content areas such as science or social
studies. It involves the type of discourse used by experts such as mathematicians, historians, and
scientists. This can be modeled, collaboratively constructed, and finally used independently through a
gradual release of responsibility sequence (Fisher and Frey, 2013; Gibbons, 2009). This includes
vocabulary.
- Language FOR learning identifies the purpose for using the language. These are language functions
such as speech acts used in comparing, summarizing, describing concepts and processes. They can
be introduced in the form of sentence frames (i.e., It is …. in…. / If ..., then....) (Kinsella, 2013; Shafer
Willner, 2013).
- Language THROUGH learning is developed on demand, within the learning task. This type of

language is supported within dialogic, academic conversations because it is recycled, practiced, and
becomes more precise the more it is used (Zwiers, 2014).

3. “Instruments for Assessment” suggests a different focus of assessment on areas of subject


content and on communication skills, cognitive skills and practical skills. Teachers need to put learners
at the center of the process and to find out what standards are achievable when they study subject
content in non-native language6. It is important to make sure your objectives, learning activities, and
assessment indicators are aligned. You assess the learning objectives, not the activities.

Adaptação Curricular para o estudante Surdo
Olá, professor (a)! Este material traz sugestões de adaptações curriculares para o
desenvolvimento das atividades para os alunos Surdos.
As adaptações estão identificadas em caixas de texto com títulos azuis e um ícone criado
para este material que representa as identidades surdas, pois neste universo temos estudantes
que são seres individuais e compartilham da Língua de Sinais para se comunicarem e também
adquirir uma segunda língua, neste caso, a Língua Inglesa.
Quando pensamos em adaptação curricular é necessário ter em mente que são ajustes
realizados no plano de aula quanto ao objetivo, metodologia e avaliação. Ao preparar a aula,
precisa-se de uma intencionalidade do(a) professor(a) para a turma e outra para o estudante com
deficiência.
Diante disso, vamos refletir sobre um possível caminho a percorrer quando nos referimos
ao ensino de língua estrangeira para estudantes Surdos:
○ Peça ao estudante que providencie um caderno para ser utilizado como banco de
palavras.
○ Converse com o interlocutor sobre a função deste caderno. Durante as aulas, o
interlocutor, orientado pelo(a) professor(a), auxiliará o estudante na construção do conceito
(significado e significante) de cada vocábulo em língua estrangeira, sendo registrado no banco de
palavras, que ao longo do ano será utilizado como fonte de consulta para a realização de
atividades.
○ Defina qual será o vocabulário enfatizado durante a aula. Separe o vocabulário por classe
gramatical, a princípio inicie com substantivos e verbos e com o passar do tempo inclua as demais
de acordo com a sua intencionalidade, pronomes, adjetivos, advérbios e numerais; (Cabe pontuar
que em Libras usa-se poucas conjunções, preposições e artigos, pois estão incorporados às
palavras que se referem).
○ Ao longo da aula, defina com o estudante e o interlocutor uma cor para a classe gramatical
que estará em estudo, pois será utilizada no decorrer das aulas subsequentes.
○ O estudante deverá pintar a palavra, o interlocutor fará a construção em libras do
significado do vocábulo e só então a palavra nova irá para o banco de palavras do estudante.
○ O segredo não é pintar muitas palavras ou todas de determinada classe gramatical em
um único dia, mas a qualidade da discussão e construção do significado, para isso, utilize recursos
visuais, vídeos, imagens e ou simulações de cenas teatrais com a participação dos estudantes
ouvintes promovendo o engajamento do estudante surdo. Estimamos que se o estudante se
apropriar de cinco (5) palavras em uma aula, ao longo de um bimestre, dezesseis (16) aulas, serão
oitenta palavras (80), que ao longo do ano se tornarão duzentas e quarenta (240). Depois que ele
se apropriar deste movimento, o céu será o limite. Esta estratégia pode ser utilizada com a turma
toda!
○ Quando a palavra já estudada aparecer em aulas posteriores, não deverá ser pintada,
mas consultada no banco de palavras e neste momento é hora de verificar se houve a apropriação
do vocabulário.
○ Por fim, COMEMORE com seu estudante cada conquista! Eleve a autoestima dele
construindo laços de afetividade. Desta forma, o aprender será prazeroso e permanente, pois o
que toca a emoção, negativamente ou positivamente é perpetuado. Acesse o link abaixo para

ACTIVITY 1
• KWL Chart is a useful tool to be used in the beginning, during, and after a lesson or unit. As a brainstorming ask
students what they know about healthy life;
• Elicit student’s background knowledge – ask them what they can see in the picture. Motivate them to fill out the
first and the second column of the KWL Chart;
• By the end of the activities, ask students to come back to this KWL chart and fill the third column with what they
have learned about the topic. The information provided by students is very important and can be part of a recovery
plan, according to their needs.
Curricular Adaptation
• Ask interpreter to signal what the deaf students knows about healthy life;
• Ask interpreter to signal the teacher and classmates’ voices all the time to guarantee the inclusion of deaf
students;
• Ask interpreter to signal what the deaf student wants to know. At this moment the interlocutor can use only Brazilian
Sign Language;
• Select the keywords with the interpreter;
• The keywords are the ones that students will be able to learn and they will contribute to their learning process.

don’t know.
FOOD PYRAMID

The food pyramid is a guide that demonstrates how we should eat to have a healthy life.

Each part of the pyramid represents a group of food. At the base of the pyramid, the larger part, we find
the food that should be consumed in greater quantities and at the top those that should be less
consumed. The daily portions to be eaten, of each food group, may vary depending on the gender,
weight, age, height and individual needs.

At the base of the pyramid, we find rich food in carbohydrates such as pasta, bread, cereals and rice.
Next, we find the group of fruits and vegetables that provide vitamins, minerals and fiber to our body.

At the third level of the pyramid, there are sources of protein and minerals such as meat, milk and dairy
products. At the top of the pyramid are the foods that should be consumed in moderation, because in
addition to calories, they can lead to obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and other diseases. In
this group we find sweets, sugars, oils and fats.

e) Using a dictionary, look up the words you circled and write their meaning on the lines
below.
f) What is the text about? It is about the food pyramid.
g) Considering the information found in the text, complete the food pyramid using the
words from the following box.

answer the questions;
• Read the text with the students, give them time to talk in pairs and answer the questions;
• Encourage students to search the internet for different names for the same food in English-speaking
countries like Jamaica, South Africa, Australia, Canada, Ireland and others, then tell them to present to the
class, using the frame;
• Explain the use of "some" to express quantity and give them time to make sentences.
Curricular Adaptation
• Ask to interpreter to provide the interaction with the classmates;
• Use the instructions in the introduction of this guide to work with the new vocabulary;

b) Read the text and answer the questions. Don’t forget to circle the words you don’t know
and look up their meaning using a dictionary.

Carbohydrates are very important in every diet because one of the main functions of these molecules is
to provide energy.
A molecule of carbohydrates is formed by carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. During the digestion process,
our body breaks carbohydrates into glucose, which is responsible for giving energy to our cells.
A diet with no carbohydrates may cause many problems to our body functionality.

the activity can be done in pairs;
• Motivate students to form sentences with the words in the bubbles, and then read the sentences with them;
• To practice speaking, read the text to students, then in pairs tell students to read the dialogue, student a is
Renata and student b is Carlos, after reading tell them to invert the position to train again;
• Explain the use of "how much" and "how many" and tell them to ask questions for the answers.
Curricular Adaptation

• Ask students to use the word bank notebook to consult the words;
• Ask interpreter to help students every single class reviewing the words of the word bank;
• Ask students to do a visual organize as a model in their notebook to understand when they will use HOW
MANY or HOW MUCH.
a) Consider what you have learned about the food pyramid. Tick on the chart below to the
food that can be found on the second layer of the pyramid:

Beef Starfruit Kiwi Beet

Cauliflower Turnip Cupcake Egg

b) Read the text below. Don’t forget to circle the words you don’t know and look up their
meaning using a dictionary.

Fruit and vegetables are indispensable in any healthy diets, because they contain many vitamins, fibers
and minerals.
Vitamins help our body to keep a good metabolism, immunologic system, hair growth and many other
things.
Fibers are a type of carbohydrate that are not broken into sugar. They are very important to body’s
digestion, blood sugar management and cholesterol maintenance.
Minerals include iron, potassium and calcium. They are inorganic substances needed to keep our bones
and teeth strong.
Source: Text produced by the authors.

c) Complete the visual organizer with words you can relate to fruits and vegetables.

d) Complete the sentences with the vitamin or mineral found in each one of the following
fruits and vegetables. Search out the ones you do not know. Follow the example:

1. Oranges are rich in Vitamin C.


2. Starfruits are rich in minerals like zinc, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, iron and
potassium.
3. Cauliflowers are rich in fiber to enhance weight loss and digestion, choline that is
essential for learning and memory.

9. Carrots are rich in biotin, potassium, and vitamins A (from beta carotene), K1
(phylloquinone), and B6.
10. Onions are rich in vitamin C, folate, vitamin B6, and potassium.
e) Use the words from the bubbles to write sentences. Follow the example:

I love I was vegetables


good

for I like

5. How many fruits did you buy?

6. Many people have bacon for breakfast.

7. I was in the mood for a banana smoothie.

8. How may apples did you buy?

9. Physical activities are good.

10.I am so glad to hear that.


f) In pairs, read the dialogue, each one representing a character:

RENATA: Hi Carlos, did you watch the series yesterday?


CARLOS: No, I had no time. When I got home from school, I went to the supermarket with my mom.
RENATA: Really, what did you buy?
CARLOS: We bought some fruits. I was in the mood for a banana smoothie.
RENATA: Nice! How many bananas and papayas did you buy?
CARLOS: Not much. We bought a dozen bananas, two papayas, six oranges and an apple.
Oh, I also bought some lemons.
RENATA: How much milk did you buy?
CARLOS: 3 liters.

g) Read the explanation below and then make questions for the answers using “how much”
or “how many”.

“HOW MUCH” is used to ask for non-countable nouns that require a unit of measure (kilograms, liters,
meters, pounds, etc). These nouns only allow the singular form.

“HOW MANY” is used in the case of countable nouns and does not require any unit of measurement.
These nouns allow for the singular and plural form.

1. I bought 1 liter of orange juice. How much juice did you buy?

2. He bought eight starfruits. How many starfruits did you buy?

3. She bought four papayas. How many papayas did you buy?

4. They bought three bottles of milk. How much milk did you buy?

5. I bought two pounds of meat. How much meat did you buy?
ACTIVITY 5

suggested in the introduction to this guide;

is dairy product. a Butter

1. Butter is a dairy product.

• Ask students to use the sentence structure of the model to organize the others;
• Ask students to use the model of dialog to write some sentences with the vocabulary from word bank
notebook about their eating habits;
a) Relate the food from the chart connecting its picture to the correct classification. Follow
the example:

Condensed milk

MEAT

4. I don’t like red meat. I only eat fish and chicken.

5. I like butter and cheese in my sandwich.


c) In pairs, complete the text about the third layer of the food pyramid.

On the third layer of the food pyramid, we find sources of protein and minerals such as meat,
milk and dairy products.
Meat is very import to human body because it is mainly composed by water, fat and specially
protein. This last substance is responsible for many functions, like muscular contractions, oxygen
transportation, the production of antibodies and others. Meat is our main source of protein, but it can
also be found in dairy products.
Milk is a white, nutrient-rich liquid food . From it, we make dairy products like yogurt, cheese,
butter, etc.. Both milk and dairy products are sources of protein and calcium and form part of
a healthy diet.

• Ask students to fill out the chart comparing the junk food they have chosen with the nutritional fact of the
natural food from which it is derived to analyze which is more caloric.

Curricular Adaptation

• Use the images below to construct the meaning of words;


• Ask students to add new keywords in the word bank notebook;
• Use the instructions in the introduction of this guide to work with the new vocabulary.
a) Read the text below and answer the questions. Don’t forget to circle the words you
don’t know and look up their meaning using a dictionary.

Adapted from a Lesson Plan Template from Arizona State University (2019)
The template above contains some concepts taken from Content and Language Integrated
Learning – CLIL. It is an approach or method, which integrates the teaching of content from the
curriculum with the teaching of a non-native language. CLIL sometimes is referred to ‘4 Cs’ as components:
Culture - The role of culture, understanding ourselves and other cultures is an important part of
CLIL approach. We want to develop learners who have positive attitudes and who become aware
of the responsibilities of global as well as local citizenship.
Content - CLIL develops cross-curricular links among different subjects. Teachers need to
analyze content for its language demands and to present content in an understandable way.
Cognition - CLIL promotes cognitive or thinking skills, which challenge learners. These skills
include reasoning, creative thinking and evaluating. Teachers need to analyze thinking processes
for their language demands and to teach learners the language they need to express their
thoughts and ideas.
Communication - Learners must produce subject language in both oral and written forms.
Students need to be encouraged to participate in meaningful interaction in the classroom.

There are three parts on Student’s Learning Guide:


1. “Culture/Content/Cognition (Learning Outcomes)” indicates teaching aims that will be developed
by students. In the cognitive process students will develop aims to integrate culture, content and
communication.7

2. “Communication” follows the idea from Michael Halliday (1976) that identifies three major
simultaneous relationships between language and learning.
- Language OF learning uses language coming from the content areas such as science or social
studies. It involves the type of discourse used by experts such as mathematicians, historians, and
scientists. This can be modeled, collaboratively constructed, and finally used independently through a
gradual release of responsibility sequence (Fisher and Frey, 2013; Gibbons, 2009). This includes
vocabulary.
- Language FOR learning identifies the purpose for using the language. These are language functions
such as speech acts used in comparing, summarizing, describing concepts and processes. They can
be introduced in the form of sentence frames (i.e., It is …. in…. / If ..., then....) (Kinsella, 2013; Shafer
Willner, 2013).
- Language THROUGH learning is developed on demand, within the learning task. This type of
language is supported within dialogic, academic conversations because it is recycled, practiced, and
becomes more precise the more it is used (Zwiers, 2014).

3. “Instruments for Assessment” suggests a different focus of assessment on areas of subject


content and on communication skills, cognitive skills and practical skills. Teachers need to put learners
at the center of the process and to find out what standards are achievable when they study subject
content in non-native language8. It is important to make sure your objectives, learning activities, and
assessment indicators are aligned. You assess the learning objectives, not the activities.

Adaptação Curricular para o estudante Surdo

Olá, professor (a)! Este material traz sugestões de adaptações curriculares para o desenvolvimento das
atividades para os alunos Surdos.
As adaptações estão identificadas em caixas de texto com títulos azuis e um ícone criado para este
material que representa as identidades surdas, pois neste universo temos estudantes que são seres
individuais e compartilham da Língua de Sinais para se comunicarem e também adquirir uma segunda
língua, neste caso, a Língua Inglesa.
Quando pensamos em adaptação curricular é necessário ter em mente que são ajustes realizados no
plano de aula quanto ao objetivo, à metodologia e à avaliação. Ao preparar a aula, precisa-se de uma
intencionalidade do(a) professor(a) para a turma e outra para o estudante com deficiência.
Diante disso, vamos refletir sobre um possível caminho a percorrer quando nos referimos ao ensino de
língua estrangeira para estudantes Surdos:
○ Peça ao estudante que providencie um caderno para ser utilizado como banco de palavras.
○ Converse com o interlocutor sobre a função desse caderno. Durante as aulas, o interlocutor, orientado
pelo(a) professor(a), auxiliará o estudante na construção do conceito (significado e significante) de cada
vocábulo em língua estrangeira, sendo registrado no banco de palavras, que ao longo do ano será
utilizado como fonte de consulta para a realização de atividades.
○ Defina qual será o vocabulário enfatizado durante a aula. Separe o vocabulário por classe gramatical,
a princípio inicie com substantivos e verbos e com o passar do tempo inclua as demais de acordo com
a sua intencionalidade: pronomes, adjetivos, advérbios e numerais; Cabe pontuar que em Libras usa-
se poucas conjunções, preposições e artigos, pois estão incorporados às palavras que se referem.
○ Ao longo da aula, defina com o estudante e o interlocutor uma cor para a classe gramatical que estará
em estudo, pois será utilizada no decorrer das aulas subsequentes.
○ O estudante deverá pintar a palavra, o interlocutor fará a construção em libras do significado do
vocábulo e só então a palavra nova irá para o banco de palavras do estudante.
○ O segredo não é pintar muitas palavras ou todas de determinada classe gramatical em um único dia,
mas a qualidade da discussão e a construção do significado. Para isso, utilize recursos visuais, vídeos,
imagens e ou simulações de cenas teatrais com a participação dos estudantes ouvintes promovendo o
engajamento do estudante surdo. Estimamos que se o estudante se apropriar de cinco (5) palavras em
uma aula, ao longo de um bimestre, dezesseis (16) aulas, serão oitenta palavras (80), que ao longo do
ano se tornarão duzentas e quarenta (240). Depois que ele se apropriar deste movimento, o céu será
o limite. Esta estratégia pode ser utilizada com a turma toda!
○ Quando a palavra já estudada aparecer em aulas posteriores, não deverá ser pintada, mas consultada
no banco de palavras e neste momento é hora de verificar se houve a apropriação do vocabulário.
○ Por fim, COMEMORE com seu estudante cada conquista! Eleve a autoestima dele construindo laços
de afetividade. Desta forma, o aprender será prazeroso e permanente, pois o que toca a emoção,
negativamente ou positivamente é perpetuado. Acesse o link abaixo para entender um pouco mais:

• Use the images below to construct the meaning of words;

• Ask students to add new keywords in the word bank notebook;

• Ask students to use the word bank notebook to anwer the questions;

• Use the instructions in the introduction of this guide to work with the new vocabulary.
a) Science involves “results of studies” from different areas of knowledge. Read
the definitions of the words below and answer the questions in Portuguese.

Science is “knowledge from the careful study of the structure and behavior of
the physical world, especially by watching, measuring, and doing experiments,
and the development of theories to describe the results” of studies.
Math is “the study of numbers, shapes, and space using reason and usually a
special system of symbols and rules for organizing them.”
Language is “a system of communication consisting of sounds, words, and
grammar, or the system of communication used by people in a particular country
or type of work.”
Source:

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/pt/dicionario/ingles/math
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/pt/dicionario/ingles/language
If language is “a system of communication”, it will be found in scientific
publications. In the past, most scientific publications were made in Latin, but
nowadays English has replaced Latin, and it is the global language of
communication, mainly in scientific publications.

Text produced specially for this material.

1. What is the language we use in the scientific field?


In the past it was Latin, nowadays it is English.
2. Why is it considered the language of science?
Because it is used in scientific publications.

MANCALA

Imagem: https://novaescola.org.br/conteudo/9104/um-jogo-para-semear-colher-e-contar

THE GAME

“Mancala” is a group of similar games from Africa, according to some anthropologists. It


is currently played on all continents and disseminated through its fans and educators, in
schools and universities. In some countries, Mancala is known by other names. Mancala
is a strategy game related to sowing. It comes from the Arabic word which means “to
move”. There is a very important and unusual rule: the player cannot leave the opponent
seedless in his field.

THE OBJECTIVE
The objective of the game is to get more stones in your Mancala then your opponent gets
in theirs.

THE MATERIALS

• Special board (12 small cups, six on each side, and it has a larger empty cut on
each of the ends which is called Mancala).
• It’s possible to use an empty egg carton and a small bowl on each side for the
points.
• Small rocks (pebbles or beans or buttons) something to use for the playing pieces
inside.

YOU CAN BUILD ONE!

PLAY THE GAME

• Put four stones in each of the small cups (your side) and nothing in the outside ones.
• Take out the stones from one of your cups and go counterclockwise and drop
stones in each of the bowls, including yours.
• Player one selects one of the cups to play from. The stones from the cup are picked
up and one stone is placed in each cup moving right. If the last stone played ends
in your Mancala, you move again.
• Player two goes next and moves the five stones in his fifth cup. The last stone
ends in his Mancala and he makes another move.
• If a player’s last stone ends in an empty cup on his own side the stones from the
opposite side are captured.
• When player one moves the five stones from his sixth cup the last stone ends in
an empty cup on his own side. The capturing stone, and the stones on the opposite
side, all go to player 1’s Mancala.
• Players continue to take turns moving their stones. Skipping ahead, when a player
has removed all the stones from his side, the game is over.
• Any stones that are in cups on the other side are moved to that player’s Mancala.
• Player 2 removes the stones from his side to finish the game.
• Player 1 moves the remaining stones on his side to his Mancala. The stones in
each Mancala are counted.

THE WINNER

The player with more stones wins the game. Player 1 wins the game with 27 stones,
compared to player 2’s 21stones.

LET’S PLAY.

You and your friends can develop a “Board Games Championship”.

a-5a-edicao-da-feira/

Thinking about sustainable and low-cost alternatives, high school students


from E. E. Prof. Gabriel Pozzi, in Limeira, developed a prototype using
organic material. The innovative project was so well-received that the
students gained the chance to visit Exporecerca Jove, in Barcelona. In the
region known for the orange juice industry, Larissa Souza Galvão and
Mariana Oliveira Silva chose the fruit bagasse as a raw material. With the
support of USP São Carlos, they developed a low-cost method to reuse the
material. In addition to reducing environmental impacts, the objective on the
adolescents is to use the material in homes of low-income families, both in
making tiles, as well as partitions and doors.

1. Observation: is something that catches the attention.

2. Question: why, how, what, etc.

3. Hypothesis:_A hypothesis is a potential answer to the question, one that can


somehow be tested.

4. Prediction(s) based on the hypothesis: A prediction is an outcome we'd expect


to see if the hypothesis is correct.

5. Test the prediction: To test the hypothesis, we need to make an observation or


perform an experiment associated with the prediction.

6. Results: The results of a test may either support or contradict – oppose - a


hypothesis.

ACTIVITY 8
• Prepare a black box, tell students that they must pretend to be scientists and there is a problem to be solved: what's
inside?
• After the discussions, encourage students to prepare an exhibition to expose a black box at the entrance of the school,
causing curiosity in the students. Tell them to make a poster that calls attention to the mystery of the black box,
motivating students to take a risk and write their opinions on pieces of paper;
• Ask students to read the answers and make a graph with the data collected, then show the possible answers at the
entrance of the school and make an appointment to open the black box. Thus, everyone will have the opportunity to
see who was right;
• Tell students to register the steps they observed during this activity as scientists do observations, questions,
hypotheses, test the predictions and the results.
Curricular Adaptation

a) Do the experiment:

BEFORE START WORKING:


• write about objects that may or may not be inside the black box, from the point of
view of the scientists;
• write down the names that come up.

TESTING AS HYPOTHESES:
After brainstorming some hypotheses about what could or could not be inside the
box, the next step is testing. For performing the test, you need to ask questions:
What do you want to find out? Or what’s inside the box?

IN CONCLUSION:
What’s inside the box?
After all the students have examined the box, each group presents their hypothesis
of the object and their reasoning as to how they came to that conclusion.
You may that each group has different suggestions and
reasoning. Write down each group’s suggestions.

LET´S RAISE CURIOSITY!


Prepare a black box to display in the entrance of the school with a poster with the
following question “What is inside the Black Box?” Students should write in a piece
of paper their investigation and put it in another box.
After one week, pick up the boxes and, in a special moment, open the Black Box to
all students to see if their investigation was successful and collect the given answers
to create database.
Prepare one graphic with the collected data to display it in the same place the Black
Box was. The graph must have the answer to these questions:
Is it heavy?
Does it smell?
I think it is a notebook. Feel the weight of the box.

ACTIVITY 9
• Read the text with students and help them with unfamiliar words. Tell them to circle the words and look up their
meaning in the dictionary;
• Ask students to bring the materials needed for the experiment;
• Decide with students where the pluviometer will be located. Tell students to take notes of the numbers as the
rainwater is being collected so they can write a text, presenting the collected data;
• Tell students to answer the question and fill out true or false activity.
Curricular adaptation

• Ask the interpreter to provide the interaction in sign language;


• Use the instructions in the introduction of this guide to work with the new vocabulary;
• Ask students to use the word bank notebook as support to read;
• Ask students to add new words in the word bank notebook.
a) Do you know what a pluviometer is?

A pluviometer is an instrument used to measure the intensity of rainfall. By the observation of the
pluviometer, it is possible to predict if a place may be affected by a flood. The same instrument can be
used to prevent landslides.
How can this device help your community?

b) You can build a pluviometer at home using a simple soda plastic bottle. Here is
what you will need to make a pluviometer:
1 plastic bottle; scissors; 1 ruler; plastic tape.

INSTRUCTIONS:
• Using the scissors, cut off the top of the plastic bottle and save it;
• Glue the ruler inside the plastic bottle using the plastic tape. The side with
the numbers of the ruler must be seen from the outside;
• Put the top side of the bottle you saved upside down in the bottle. You will
now have a funnel. Tape it with the plastic tape.
• That’s it! Your homemade pluviometer is done!

c) Now, it is time to put your pluviometer to work.

• At home, place the pluviometer in an open space, like a garden or backyard,


for ex- ample.
• Wait for a rainy day and then let the pluviometer collect the rainwater for an
hour.

• After that time, use the pluviometer to record the date and how many
millimeters of water it has collected in an hour in order to determine the
intensity of the rainfall.
The intensity of the rainfall can be classified as:
Weak (2.5 millimeters per hour);
Moderate (2.5 to 10 millimeters per hour);
Strong (10 to 50 millimeters per hour);
Violent (more than 50 millimeters per hour).

d) Use the information you collected to write a text like the one below.

On November 5th, it rained in my city.


On that day, my pluviometer collected 7.2 millimeters of rainfall.
That is considered moderate rain.
It sounds good, because floods might happen from this point on.

e) Did you see math in this experiment? If yes, where is it? Copy from the text on
the lines below.
Yes, I did. It is in the classification of the intensity of the rain, the millimeters per hour.

f) Why is math important in an experiment? Write True or False:

Math helps measure the intensity of rainfall. (V)

We cannot observe the rain without math. (F)

Mathematics helps to collect the amount of rain in hours. (V)

I use math to take notes on the rain levels. (V)

The intensity of rainfall can be classified without math. (F)
