Llengua anglesa a primària. Competència digital

The objective of this practise is to know some web pages that offer us the possibility of updating our reading skills by accessing authentic news.

Nowadays the internet is one of the most popular ways to read news. In this practise, a little bit different from the rest of this module, we want to give you a compilation of different links to British newspapers to read on-line. They bring us the possibility of reading the latest news, as well as watching videos and listening to the news in some of them.

• Go to the main pages of the different newspapers and have a look at them

The British Daily Telegraph( http://www.telegraph.co.uk/) - audio and video section on the right frame of the screen

The Daily Express: http://www.express.co.uk/

The Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/ - breaking news appearing under the red line

The Herald: http://www.theherald.co.uk/ - video reports available, too

The Times: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/global/ - special section with the most read, commented and curious articles

• Methodology. If you want to introduce newspaper reading in the class, after choosing the newspaper, you may look for the section your students can be interested in and encourage them to read the article that is close to them by topic to facilitate them to get the gist of the message.

After the first reading, they may focus on the words they do not understand and look them up in a dictionary (have a look at practise 6).
