Creating 15 Didactic Units
 
Hi!
 
I have to create fifteen didactic units to include them in my syllabus for the competitive exam in Spain.
 
Each didactic unit must include a grammar point and specific vocabulary related topic.
 
For example, I have created a unit with reported speech and compuers, another with superstitions and first and second conditionals, modals with Tv and quizzes...
 
But I don�t know how to approach teh rest of the units.
 
Any ideas or suggestions?
 
Ah! The syllabus is addressed to 1st year of Bachillerato students (16-17 years old)
 
Thank you!

hi 
i don �t know if my suggestion would be helpful but here is a list of grammar points and suggested ideas to link with:
 
*present simple - changing habits / statics about certain subject like smoking, cell phones, etc.. book / movie review.. festivals around the world!!
*present perfect - inventions and how they affected ourlives...
*passive - robbery or any accident repoted in a newspaper or news, you also could ask your students to record news, type them and underline passive voice sentences..
*first conditional - weather and plans for the weekend (if it �s hot on weekend, we �ll go for a picnic... etc)
*present progressive: a live report from football staduim..
* future: fortune coockies or the future teller!!! it would be a nice idea if students bring a crytal ball and pretend to tell the future of each other... or prepare coockies with paper notes about the future inside!!!
* used to: time capsule... or conversation among friends about t.v programs they used to watch..
* past simple: a historical report of your country..

Narrative tenses and stories

future tenses and holidays

comparatives/superlatives and people/jobs

modals of deduction and mysteries/crime

present simple vs continuous and sports/hobbies/free time

passives and buildings/architecture/history

present perfect simple/continuous and life experiences/famous people

quantifiers and shopping

that �s what comes to mind at the moment! Hope it helps!
