UNIT PRESENTATION

This TEACHING UNIT (TU from now on) here developed will be addressed at students in their last course of high school within the national education system (2º BACHILLERATO). Even though this fact, all the materials could be applied to any intermediate or high-intermediate English classroom. 

On the next lines you can find the sections in which my TU so called "Lost in the States" is divided. The first four correspond to the four blocks established by Conselleria d'Educació, all by myself I have added the last two in order to enhance my future students sociocultural knowledge.

1. Listening comprehension skills > American VS. British spellings; formal and informal contexts.
2. Oral expression and interaction > Planning a trip, giving and asking for directions.
3. Reading comprehension skills > Consulting American online travel guides.
4. Writing expression and interaction > Journey diary (reflections on a trip).
5. Culture, history and traditions > Thanksgiving celebration, American idioms.
6. Grammar > Structures: "If only..."; "I wish I had..." 3rd conditional.
