Translation

26 Setembro 2016, 12:00 • Tânia Joesephine Gregg Lopes da Silva

A newspaper article was translated in class to focus on the difference between the present perfect and simple past.

General observations were made on how to attain fluency.

Only half of the text was translated, as most students found the exercise quite demanding.The students were given time to prepare the translation of half of the text in pairs, and then it was translated orally so that different alternatives could be shared. It will be completed in the next lesson.
