INTRODUCTION

Teens in Motion has been specially written to meet the requirements of the new
Curriculum for the 1st Year of Secondary Education and with the objective of
providing students with a textbook that will keep them motivated and engaged
when using it.
VOLUME 2

The contents in Teens in Motion have been organized in four units which have
been developed around key topics that have proved to be interesting for our
students and that were suggested by the Chilean Ministry of Education. They
range from serious subjects such as choosing a profession or learning about the
advantages of education and lifelong learning to more general topics such as
arts or traditions and celebrations around the world.
The contents in each unit have been organized according to the functions the
learners should be able to carry out in English and considering the development
of the four skills (which have been grouped in three main areas: Oral
Communication, Reading Comprehension and Written Expression. The students’
communicative competence is considered as the mastery of functions they need
to communicate across a range of situations.
This approach allows students to see language as a necessary tool, and
gives the grammatical and lexical content a clear purpose, so that “language
learning can result from creating the right kinds of interactional processes in the
classroom” (Richards, 2006).
Special emphasis has been placed on cross-curricular values (Objetivos
Fundamentales Transversales) and attitudes students should pay attention to
and develop as part of their everyday life.

have been especially designed for:

OPENING
Activate and foster intrinsic motivation: A set of challenging questions invite students to discuss ideas in pairs, in groups or
as a class, using their creativity.
Develop metacognition: Students are guided to set their own learning goals and to draw up a learning plan for goal
attainment.

VOLUME 2 UNIT 3
DEVELOPMENT
Activate prior knowledge: The unit provides a space where students can keep record of the previous ideas and knowledge
that will help them make sense of the new material.
Develop skills and strategies: Special process-oriented activities and strategies designed to help students develop reading
comprehension, written expression and oral communication.
Evaluate for learning: The formative assessment activities embedded in the unit allow students to gather information
about their learning and track their progress.
CLOSURE
Evaluate for learning: A challenging final project and the final synthesis allow students to recognize and apply what they
have learned.
Develop metacognition: Students synthesize what they have learned and formulate remedial actions to face future difficulties.

Round off the session with a general conversation. This is an excellent moment to elicit students’ ideas about the
situation of women in the world of art: the difficulties they may face or the advantages / disadvantages they
have when becoming artists. You should prompt students to recognize and enhance the equality of rights and
opportunities for men and women in all aspects of life. In this way, you will be dealing with and promoting the

5. Webquest: Roman Red Riding-hood

Introduction: Literature is born from the human need to tell stories about oneself or about others, or about the world
to better understand our existence. All stories, myths, fables and novels are, in fact, the result of this
wish and this basic need: they help us to live, to survive; they help children to grow up and develop.

VOLUME 2 UNIT 3
Task: In this project, you will have to re-write the famous story of Little Red Riding-Hood set in Roman
times (around 1000 words). You will have to include all the events of the original story but set during
the times of the Roman Empire. In order to do so, you will work in groups of 3 students and each of
you will be in charge of a different aspect of the project.
Process: 1. A short story is a brief work of fiction usually dealing with a few characters and a single event. On
your own, watch the following video and take down notes. Then, describe the 5 elements of a
short story to your partners.
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDmhl-SU5Yk
2. As a team, visit the following website and read the 11 tips on how to write a short story (Part 1)
carefully. Later, answer the questions below.
• http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Short-Story
a. What are the basics to a good short story? Explain each step briefly.
b. What should you do if you find it difficult to describe a character?
c. How many points of view to tell a story are there? Mention them.
d. What does Tip #10 say about time when writing?
3. Now, read the information on the following websites and pay attention to some characteristics of
everyday life in Roman society. Comment with your partners and fill in the chart with specific
details which includes this information:
• Family life • Housing and homes
• Clothing • Children and school
• Food and eating habits
• http://www.ducksters.com/history/ancient_rome_food_daily_life.php
• http://www.ancient-rome.biz/daily-life.html
• http://rome.mrdonn.org/clothing.html
• http://rome.mrdonn.org/countrylife.html
• http://rome.mrdonn.org/afternoon.html
• http://rome.mrdonn.org/school.html
4. Go over this website and scan the different versions of the short story. Choose one and read it
more carefully. You will use the events of this version as a model for your work.
• http://www.pitt.edu/~dash/type0333.html
5. Follow the steps of the writing process you have learned in class to write your version of Little
Red Riding Hood. As a reminder, have a quick look at the picture on the following website.
• https://blogs.longwood.edu/postonsn/investigating-a-writing-rule/
6. To round off your group work, publish your short story in a creative way. You may write the final
version in a handmade story book or comic, as a motion picture, as a Power Point presentation
with audio, etc. Be as creative as possible!
Assessment: The new version of the short story will be evaluated with a common grade for group work creativity
and good writing skills will be highly valued, too. Rubric is as follows:
• Creativity: 40%
• Quality of writing: 40%
• Use of historical facts: 20%
Conclusion: Above all, the project you have just prepared has allowed you to use your imagination and creativity
to a wide extent. It has also given you the opportunity to expand your knowledge on the history of
the Roman Empire and to develop your reading and writing skills.

in the correct positions in the text (1 - 5).
VOLUME 2 UNIT 3

Who is Banksy?
I. He is perhaps the most famous, or infamous, artist alive. To some,
he is a genius; to others, a vandal. Always controversial, he inspires
admiration and provokes outrage in equal measure.
II. Since Banksy made his name with his trademark stencil-style
‘guerrilla’ art on walls, subways, buses and other public spaces -
on walls in London, Brighton, and even on the West Bank barrier
separating Israel from Palestine - his works have sold for hundreds
of thousands of pounds.
III. He has dozens of celebrity collectors including Brad Pitt and
Christina Aguilera
(1) ! For example, Banksy’s painting of a
monkey wearing a sandwich board sold for £228,000. He has also
painted murals including a Mona Lisa with a rocket launcher – sold
for another outrageous amount.
IV. Yet his most provocative statement, and the one that generates
the most publicity, is the fact that Banksy’s true identity has always
been a jealously guarded secret,
(2) . Some myths have grown around him:
that his real name is Robin Banks; that before he became a painter
(3) ; that his parents don’t know what he does
and think that he is an unusually successful painter and decorator.
Then, there’s the suggestion that Banksy is actually a number of
artists or that he does not exist at all.
V. Such is the curiosity about Banksy that when the great man is
supposed to have thrown away a pizza box into a bin in Los
Angeles, (4) , with the seller suggesting that
the few anchovies left inside might have traces of his DNA! Trying
to establish just who the elusive Banksy is has proved as difficult as
predicting the location of his next work.
VI. Banksy has supposedly been photographed a few times, but each
photo appears to be that of a different person, so who knows?
However, does it really matter who Banksy is? Is art about the
artist (5) ? The people who buy his art think
that the person behind it does not really matter. It seems to
support the statement: “Art, in the end, is only about art.”

II Procedure
1. As a whole class, brainstorm alternatives for a skit (a short piece of humorous writing, an extract of
a theatre play, a scene of a sitcom, etc.).

2. As a group, choose one of the options you listed, preferably one that is easy to perform and that
everybody in your group likes.

3. Make a first draft of your play. Invent a basic story line, create characters, and develop a plot that
has an opening, middle action, and an interesting, or even dramatic, conclusion. Do not make it too
long, as it will be too much to learn by heart.

4. Write your script stating clearly what the characters say. Use the name of each character with their
lines following in sequence each time. (You can follow the model on page 109 or any other).

5. Describe scenes and the way the characters should act.

6. Revise and edit the script as a group. Agree on anything you can add or remove to polish it.

7. Distribute roles. Remember there should be one director, the necessary actors and the rest of the
group can help preparing costumes (if any), creating the appropriate atmosphere and setting up
the stage.

8. Practice until you can say all the lines without looking at the script. Pay special attention to
intonation and pronunciation.

III Presentation
If possible, make a video of your skit. If not, present it to the other groups, to another class or to the
whole school!

IV Evaluation
After you have showed the video or performed the skit, relect on the group’s work and evaluate your
performance. Tick (✔) the corresponding column according to the following scale:

Greetings around the world


In the United States and Canada, for example, a simple (2) or a (6)
is the norm. The (2) has an interesting origin: it started long ago as a way of
showing people that you weren’t carrying a weapon. Shaking the person’s right hand while
looking him or her in the eye is the usual method. Shaking hands are also common in other
parts of the world, including Britain and Russia. In Russia, males grasp other men’s hands very
strongly during the handshake. They are also how most people in New Zealand greet each other.
However, the native Maori people of that country display more physical contact: they press their
noses together in a sign of trust and closeness.
In other countries, such as France and Belgium, a (8) and a (3) are
more common when two people meet. In those cultures, the number of kissing times varies
depending on the particular country. In Saudi Arabia, men might (8) and (3)
between men but not a woman. Men will also shake hands with other men there.
In some Eastern countries, including Korea and Japan, a (1) is the traditional
greeting. In Japan, the deeper the (1) , the deeper the respect shown. The strangest
custom, though, is likely in Tibet. People there choose to (7) to greet others.
In many African countries, it is common for people to touch hands. However, that doesn’t mean a
(2) is commonly used. For instance, in Zambia, people gently squeeze each other’s
thumbs when greeting and, in the northern part of Mozambique, people might clap their hands
three times and say hello.

was originally started to give thanks to God for
a bountiful harvest. This was when there were
lots of farmers that grew crops. Now, we give thanks for everything we
appreciate, but some farming families still give thanks for a good crop.
Harvest celebrations have been around a long time. Ever since the very first
harvest, about 2000 years ago, people have given thanks for a prosperous
bounty. The first formal Thanksgiving was in the year 1578. A man named
Martin Frobisher gave thanks for surviving his journey from England. He
also gave thanks for a place that is now called Newfoundland. In 1879, the
Canadian parliament declared November 6th a day of Thanksgiving and a
national holiday.
A big part of Thanksgiving is the feast, which
usually consists of potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes,
peas, gravy, stuffing, salads, buns and lots of other
great food. The main part of the feast is usually
the turkey. Other families might have ham, roast
beef, duck or chicken. The dessert that often
follows the feast is pumpkin pie. Other people may choose different
desserts and food depending on their customs and beliefs for which they
choose to give thanks.
The cornucopia has become a traditional symbol of this holiday because it is
commonly shown filled with grain, vegetables and fruit, the staple food that
settlers would give thanks for.
During Thanksgiving, families spend time
together and have fun. It is the perfect time to
appreciate all that we have. In many places, the
community celebrates Thanksgiving all together
with a tradition called “Fowl Supper”. The entire
community enjoys food prepared by the local
families in the basement of the local church.

Thanksgiving day
Narrator: Thanksgiving. A time of joy, celebration, food, relaxation, and family. A day everyone loves.
Everyone, except Tom Turkey! (Tom Turkey walks on stage left, flapping his wings.)
Tom: Gobble, gobble! (On stage right, Grandma and Grandpa enter.)
Grandma: I mashed the potatoes, I crammed the cranberries, and now it’s time for you to do what
you always do on Thanksgiving Day. It’s time to prepare the turkey.
Tom: Prepare? That doesn’t sound so bad.
Grandpa: That’s such hard work! I have to pluck the feathers and pull out the innards.
Tom: Ouch!
Grandma: And don’t forget that first, you must chop off his head.
Tom: (Grabs his neck full of fear.) I thought I was going to be the guest
of honour. These people are going to eat me! I’ve got to get out
of here! (Fred and Terri, Grandma and Grandpa’s grandchildren,
enter.)
Grandpa: Fred, this Thanksgiving, I’m giving you a very special
responsibility. Go out back and chop off the turkey’s head,
please.
Fred: Terri! Did you hear what Grandpa just said to me? (Fred turns to
Terri, who has been engrossed in a book.)
Terri: No, sorry. I was too busy reading my history book.
Fred: Grandpa wants you to kill the turkey. (He pushes her toward Tom,
and then goes out).
Terri: Well, I guess someone has to do it. (Approaching Tom.) Sorry, Mr.
Turkey. The time has come.
Tom: I – I – I feel faint! (The turkey starts to sway back and forth. He falls
to the ground.)
Terri: Oh no! He’s having a heart attack! (Checking the turkey’s pulse.) He doesn’t have a pulse.
Fred: Terri, what are you doing? (Going into the kitchen).
Terri: CPR. I learned this in health class. Live, Mr. Turkey, live! (She presses Tom’s chest
dramatically).
Tom: (Coming back to life.) Gobble, gobble!
Fred: You saved his life! Now I guess you’d better cut off his head.
Terri: You know, according to my history book, presidents Harry Truman and John Kennedy
spared the lives of their turkeys, and since 1989, the White House has granted a
presidential pardon to each live turkey that is presented to the president. Maybe this year
we could do the same.
Grandma: I think that’s a lovely idea. We have many other delicious foods we can eat: yams,
cranberries, freshly made bread, and mashed potatoes.
Grandpa: That’s right, Grandma. Now, who’s up for some pork chops?
Pig: (Feeling faint.) I’ve got to get out of here!

2. Read the short text about how people celebrate the Chinese New Year.

Chinese New Year


The date of the Chinese New Year is based on the Chinese lunar calendar, and
the dates change, but it is always somewhere in the period from January 21st to
February 20th.
Although there are many interesting stories explaining the
start of the Chinese New Year festival, the main reasons for the
festival are to celebrate a year of hard work, have a good rest,
and relax with family, and to wish for a lucky and prosperous
coming year. Chinese people believe that a good start to the year
will lead to a lucky year.
The main traditional celebrations of the festival include eating
dinner with family, giving red envelopes, firecrackers, new
clothes and decorations. More modern celebrations include
watching the CCTV Gala, instant message greetings, and cyber
money gifts.
Every street, building and house where the CNY is celebrated
is decorated with red. Red is the main color for the festival, as
it is believed to be an auspicious color. Certain foods are eaten
during the festival because of their symbolic meanings. Fish is
a must for the Chinese New Year as the Chinese word for fish
sounds like the word for surplus. Eating fish is believed to bring a lot of money
and good luck in the coming year.
