“Una competencia es la integración de habilidades, conocimientos y actitudes en un contexto específico”.
El enfoque en competencias considera que los conocimientos por sí mismos no son lo más importante, sino el uso que se hace de ellos en situaciones específicas de la vida personal, social y profesional. De este modo, las competencias requieren una base sólida de conocimientos y ciertas habilidades, los cuales se integran para un mismo propósito en un determinado contexto.
El presente Módulo de Aprendizaje de la asignatura Oral English Communication 2, es una herramienta de suma importancia, que propiciará tu desarrollo como persona visionaria, competente e innovadora, características que se establecen en los objetivos de la Reforma Integral de Educación Media Superior que actualmente se está implementando a nivel nacional.
El Módulo de aprendizaje es uno de los apoyos didácticos que el Colegio de Bachilleres te ofrece con la intención de estar acorde a los nuevos tiempos, a las nuevas políticas educativas, además de lo que demandan los escenarios local, nacional e internacional; el módulo se encuentra organizado a través de bloques de aprendizaje y secuencias didácticas. Una secuencia didáctica es un conjunto de actividades, organizadas en tres momentos: Inicio, desarrollo y cierre. En el inicio desarrollarás actividades que te permitirán identificar y recuperar las experiencias, los saberes, las preconcepciones y los conocimientos que ya has adquirido a través de tu formación, mismos que te ayudarán a abordar con facilidad el tema que se presenta en el desarrollo, donde realizarás actividades que introducen nuevos conocimientos dándote la oportunidad de contextualizarlos en situaciones de la vida cotidiana, con la finalidad de que tu aprendizaje sea significativo.
Posteriormente se encuentra el momento de cierre de la secuencia didáctica, donde integrarás todos los saberes que realizaste en las actividades de inicio y desarrollo.
En todas las actividades de los tres momentos se consideran los saberes conceptuales, procedimentales y actitudinales. De acuerdo a las características y del propósito de las actividades, éstas se desarrollan de forma individual, binas o equipos.
Para el desarrollo del trabajo deberás utilizar diversos recursos, desde material bibliográfico, videos, investigación de campo, etc.
La retroalimentación de tus conocimientos es de suma importancia, de ahí que se te invita a participar de forma activa cuando el docente lo indique, de esta forma aclararás dudas o bien fortalecerás lo aprendido; además en este momento, el docente podrá tener una visión general del logro de los aprendizajes del grupo.
Recuerda que la evaluación en el enfoque en competencias es un proceso continuo, que permite recabar evidencias a través de tu trabajo, donde se tomarán en cuenta los tres saberes: el conceptual, procedimental y actitudinal con el propósito de que apoyado por tu maestro mejores el aprendizaje. Es necesario que realices la autoevaluación, este ejercicio permite que valores tu actuación y reconozcas tus posibilidades, limitaciones y cambios necesarios para mejorar tu aprendizaje.
Así también, es recomendable la coevaluación, proceso donde de manera conjunta valoran su actuación, con la finalidad de fomentar la participación, reflexión y crítica ante situaciones de sus aprendizajes, promoviendo las actitudes de responsabilidad e integración del grupo.
Nuestra sociedad necesita individuos a nivel medio superior con conocimientos, habilidades, actitudes y valores, que les permitan integrarse y desarrollarse de manera satisfactoria en el mundo laboral o en su preparación profesional. Para que contribuyas en ello, es indispensable que asumas una nueva visión y actitud en cuanto a tu rol, es decir, de ser receptor de contenidos, ahora construirás tu propio conocimiento a través de la problematización y contextualización de los mismos, situación que te permitirá: Aprender a conocer, aprender a hacer, aprender a ser y aprender a vivir juntos.

The Sierra Nevada, snowy mountain range is a mountain range in the U.S. states of California and Nevada, between the California Central Valley and the Basin and Range Province. The Sierra run 400 miles (640 km) north-to-south, and are approximately 70 miles (110 km) across east-to-west

This is a piece of one of the largest and longest-lived life forms on Earth. The giant sequoia tree from which this slice comes survived for over 1,300 years. The full height of the tree, exceeded 300 feet. Several factors contribute to the long life of the giant sequoia. Its unusually thick bark is fire-resistant; the trees actually depend on fires to thin out the firs and pines that would otherwise eventually take over. Giant sequoia seeds do well in a fire-mineralized soil and are shed in greatest numbers after a fire. The tree also contains a natural wood preservative, and is very resistant to disease. No one knows how long a sequoia can live. Many trees in Sequoia National Park, in California, are more than 3,000 years old, still growing vigorously and producing abundant seeds every year. This sequoia slice offers a lesson in how to discover the age of a tree. Around the central point of the slice are concentric rings, some of which are invisible to the naked eye. Each of these represents one year's growth. To make the immense age of the tree more vivid, we have placed marks on some of the growth rings, each corresponding to a significant historical event. Even 1,000 years ago, represented by the fourth mark from the center, this was a very big tree. These rare and remarkable trees are a natural treasure. Most of them are in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks or under other government protection. Today, it is illegal to cut them down.

A scrapbook is simply a decorated photo album—but it’s different from a photo album because it preserves something more than just the photos. A scrapbook includes journaling (telling the story behind the photos) as well as memorabilia (tickets, certificates, letters, etc.) You can decorate your scrapbook album with decorative stamps, stickers and/or paint. It can be a short scrapbook but with a lot of creativity and imagination. Use the simple past, past continuous and the present perfect to talk about your life. Present it in front of your classroom.

Activity: 1 Reading
Live Your Life in Full Color
Color is all around us. We see it all the time. Most of us have no idea the impact color has on our lives. This
impact of the many colors in our environment is usually not conscious. Sometimes we get an uncomfortable
feeling in certain rooms or very relaxed in another, but we call this a mood. The "Color of mood" can be what is
surrounding us.
Today paint companies may hire a paint psychologist to advise what shades of colors will sell best. Color
psychologists also work in the decorating field. Orange is used in restaurants, because orange increases the
appetite. A good combination for restaurants is pale blue or turquoise and orange. A relaxed atmosphere and a
big appetite are the perfect environment for a restaurant.
Also, there are laboratory experiments about the effect of color on the state of a person's health. We now
know that winter in some parts of the world has not enough sunlight. A light with the sunlight spectrum can now
be used to avoid illness. Blue light is used for a calming effect in some mental hospitals. Other hospitals are now
using soft green, blue, peach and sunny yellow on walls and even sheets and gowns. These colors seem to help
the patients to get well faster.

Check results If you answered "NO" to one or more of questions 1, 9 or 11, you need more serenity in your life. You may be a person who does not take enough time for yourself. This causes you to go out of balance spiritually and you may feel overwhelmed or frustrated more often than is appropriate for the situation. By adding more of the color blue to your environment, you will promote a peaceful feeling of serenity that can balance your active life. Blue can put you more in tune with your inner self, so that your activity is more focused and effective in reaching your goals. If you answered "NO" to one or more of questions 3, 7 and 14, you need more energy and action in your life: You have dreams and desires, but are lacking the energy to make them real. You may be an intelligent person with ambitious plans, but you are missing the passion you admire in others. Add some red to your life to encourage more activity and energy. Red is the color of vitality and passion. If you answered "NO" to one or more of questions 5, 10 or 15 you lack creativity and need more intellectual energy in your life: You may feel a sense of emptiness at times. You could be an energetic person but at the end of the day you feel that you haven't really accomplished anything of substance. You might consider that your life is dull, boring and lacking focus. Yellow will stimulate the intellectual energy that is buried within you. Creativity makes even the smallest pieces in the game of life more interesting. If you answered "NO" to one or more of questions 2, 4 or 12 you really need to get your life in harmony: You might feel that you are at odds with people and situations around you. You may be easily influenced by others and this can sway you from your chosen path. This indicates a lack of self-respect that is hindering your growth in some or all parts of your life. Use the color green to promote well-being, balance, learning and harmony. Green is the color of fertility and nature. You need to open your abilities to learn new things, and balance your life in a direction that meets your needs. If you answered "NO" to one or more of questions 6, 8 or 13, you must bring a better spiritual feeling into your life: You may feel restless, or incomplete, or unhappy. If you are severely lacking in spirituality, you might feel bitter, angry or even emotionless at times. Spiritual health is the base from which all your dreams and goals will spring. It is the foundation for lasting happiness. Purple is a very powerful color.

These questions are called Tag Questions. A tag question is a special construction in English. It is a statement followed by a mini-question. The whole sentence is a "tag question", and the mini-question at the end is called a "question tag". We use tag questions at the end of statements to ask for confirmation. They mean something like: "Am I right?" or "Do you agree?" They are very common in English. The basic structure is:
+ Positive statement,
- negative tag?
The dog is sick, isn't it?
- Negative statement,
+ positive tag?
You don't like me, do you?
Look at these examples with positive statements:
Positive statement [+] Negative tag [-]
Subject Auxiliary Main verb Complement Auxiliary Not Personal pronoun (same as subject)
You are coming, are n't you?
We have finished, have n't we?
You do like coffee, do n't you?
Look at these examples with negative statements:
Negative statement [-] Positive tag [+]
Subject Auxiliary Not/Never Main verb Compl. Comma Auxiliary Personal pronoun (same as subject)
It is not snowing , is it?
We have never seen that , have we?
You do not like soda , do you?
They will not help , will they?

Let’s Practice with a partner. Speaker B is a baseball player, but he has a broken leg and is in the hospital. Speaker A is his wife and is very worried that he will try to get out of bed and go to the game today. A: You're not going to the game, are you? (with rising intonation) B: I want to go, but since my leg is broken, I guess that I'm not going, am I? (With falling intonation)
We can change the meaning of a tag question with the musical pitch of our voice. With rising intonation, it sounds like a real question and you are expecting an answer or information. But if our intonation falls, it sounds more like a statement that doesn't require a real answer and he/she is only seeking for confirmation.
Listen and practice the following tag questions.
Activity: 2a Intonation Practice
Now, you will listen to your teacher. Pay attention to his/her intonation and decide whether he/she is seeking agreement or wants information. Draw a checkmark in the correct column. Then, check the correct choice.

agreement. The speaker is not sure and wants

Read the following true story about Frano Selak and discuss the questions below.
Frano Selak: 'World's luckiest man' gives away his lottery fortune
The 81 year-old won £600,000 five years ago in the lottery in Croatia, to celebrate his fifth marriage, after earlier surviving plane and train crashes. He also survived other disasters including landing on a haystack after falling out of a plane door that had blown open. Now the pensioner has decided that "money cannot buy happiness" and has decided to live a frugal life. He has sold his luxury home on a private island, given away his fortune to family and friends and moved back to his modest home in Petrinja, which is south of Zagreb, in the centre of the country. He added that people were always telling him he was lucky to have survived so many disasters but he added: "I always think I was unlucky to have been in them in the first place but you can't tell people what they don't want to believe." After his 7 accidents, he then won £600,000 with his first ever lottery ticket and celebrated his fifth marriage saying: "I guess all the earlier marriages were disasters too."
Discuss the following questions: 1. What would you do if you won that money? 2. Do you know the definition of the underlined words in the article? If you don’t, try to guess the meaning
through context. 3. Do you agree with the man when he says that money can’t buy happiness? Why or why not? 4. Do you think the man is lucky that nothing happened to him in the accidents or unlucky to be in those
situations? Why? 5. Do you believe in luck? Why or why not?

Present Unreal Conditional
The present unreal conditional is used to express a present (or future) condition. We call it unreal because it tells us what would happen or how things would be if the situation were different. Read the example below:
I don't have a car. I don't visit you often.
If I had a car, I would visit you often.
The present unreal conditional is made up of an if-clause and a main clause. In the if clause use the verb in the past tense and in the main clause use the base form of the verb. Examples:
If clause Main clause
If you didn't work so hard, you wouldn't be tired all the time.
If they weren't so expensive, I would have one.
Activity: 2 Grammar Presentation

3. He isn’t rich, so he won’t buy a beach house.

Phrasal Verbs = verb+particle
A phrasal verb consists of a verb + particle (preposition or adverb) which creates a meaning
different from the original verb.
Example:
I ran into my teacher at the movies last night. Run + into. The meaning is “meet”.
Some phrasal verbs are intransitive. An intransitive verb cannot be followed by an object.
Example:
He suddenly showed up. "Show up" can´t take an object.
Some phrasal verbs are transitive. A transitive verb can be followed by an object.
Example:
I made up the story. "Story" is the object of "make-up"
Transitive phrasal verbs can be separable or not separable.
Example:
She called in a consultant. (not separated)
She called a consultant in. (separated.)

Will the real iPhone please stand up?
No, it's not the iPhone; it just looks like one. Fashion designer Prada and LG Electronics announced what they
call the world's first completely touch-screen mobile phone to come to market.
The Prada Phone (LG KE850) features an "advanced touch interface," ringtones, preloaded content, mobile
phone accessories and a leather case, all jointly designed by Prada and LG. It also comes with a 2-megapixel
camera, MP3 player, video player, document viewer, music/messaging multitasking capability, Bluetooth and
USB 2.0 port. The super thin phone comes in at 12 mm thick.
Apple's iPhone may have grabbed more headlines, but it's still some five months from
hitting store shelves. The Prada phone is scheduled to be available in the U.K., France,
Germany and Italy in late February 2007, and in a few Asian countries (Hong Kong,
Taiwan and Singapore) in March. It won't be cheap though. Prices will start at $776.
