PRESENTATION ABSTRACT
The objective of this workshop
is to share what we learned in two different events
for English teachers during this year. One of them was
held in Temuco, in January. The topic was Indigenous
English Language Program, by Professor Sue Barfield.
The USA Embassy organized this event which was addressed
to teachers of English with indigenous ascendance. We
represented the Aymara ethnia. There, we could share
and enjoy interesting and amusing activities for EFL
classes with some Mapuche descendent teachers. The second
event was held in Washington DC in June, organized by
The Holocaust Memorial Museum where some techniques
to teach the Holocaust were shown and practised in workshops
for teachers of English and History of USA and other
countries. We were in both cases kindly invited by the
USA Embassy. First we have selected some interesting
material that can be useful to get a better EFL learning
by following a new protocol to improve lesson planning
proposed by the SIOP Model (Sheltered Instruction Observation
Protocol) presented in the the book “ 99 Ideas
and Activities for Teaching English Learners with the
SIOP Model” by MaryEllen Vogt and Jana Echeverria.We
only chose materials that can be used in all levels
from PK through Adults. It is the teacher’s job
to gradate it according to the audience he has.
