Task 5: Write a book with Tar Heel Reader

In this written book we can find the story of William Shakespeare. The main idea is that, once they have reviewed the biography and the teacher presented it in the way he/she wants the students to do it, in groups, they write a different one in story form and changing the ending. The students can introduce all the ideas they have and we can avoid the simple copy and paste from the Internet. In this way they will learn to write in English.

This activity is aimed at 4th of ESO when they have dealt with the major part of the grammar specified in the contents of the course such as past simple and continuos, the perfect tenses..so they can keep it in the past but being innovative by introducing new data. This exercise can be part of an introductory session CLIL about literature, when dealing with the biography of an author, so can be also devoted to 2nd of Bachillerato students coursing universal literature. 

The asessment will take into account the originality when making up facts about Shakespeare, the level of grammar used, the spelling and, obviously, the writting.
