MÉTODO DE EVALUACIÓN DE LA PARTICIPACIÓN ACTIVA EN CLASE A PARTIR DEL SISTEMA ECONÓMICO DE FICHAS CROMÁTICAS.



MÉTODO DE EVALUACIÓN DE LA PARTICIPACIÓN ACTIVA EN CLASE A PARTIR DEL SISTEMA ECONÓMICO DE FICHAS CROMÁTICAS.

Cada ocasión que un alumno al momento de participar activamente en clase (en especial de manera oral) para contestar, completar o complementar un cuestionamiento o actividad específica en clase, se le entregará una ficha blanca, si durante la clase llega a acumular 5 fichas blancas, se le trocarán por una ficha azul que representa el valor de un punto (por clase), sin embargo, alumno que incurra en cualquier acto de indisciplina (uso indebido y constante de dispositivos móviles, platicar durante la clase) será acreedor de una ficha roja (la cual representa cuatro décimas de  un punto negativo.) lo cual implicará un detrimento puntual y marcado en su calificación por sesión y por promedio parcial, cabe aclarar que cada ficha roja cae en detrimento de su evaluación de parcial, no de su acumulación de fichas o puntos de su evaluación de participación activa.  
La única forma de alcanzar el punto extra por clase/sesión es al obtener 5 fichas blancas para canjearlas por una azul durante la clase, de lo contrario, solamente estará acumulando para cumplir con el 10 % del criterio de trabajo en clase (classwork)

VALORES:
  • ü  FICHA BLANCA = 0.2 o dos décimas de un punto positivo. 
  • ü  FICHA AZUL = 1 punto.
  • ü  FICHA ROJA = -.4 o cuatro décimas de un punto negativo (a calificación parcial).

LESSON 8.1 & 8.2 | SIMPLE PRESENT & PRESENT PROGRESSIVE


Present Tense vs. Progressive Tense
English Grammar Rules

Simple Present Tense

We use the simple present tense:
1. For facts
  • Whales live in the ocean.
  • Aconcagua is the highest mountain in Latin America.
  • The flight from Chile to Australia is thirteen hours.
2. For repeated or regular actions
  • Flights to Buenos Aires leave every hour.
  • I eat breakfast at the table.
  • We work every day of the week.
3. For habits
  • I brush my teeth three times a day.
  • He only drinks milk.
  • We celebrate Christmas on the twenty-fifth of December.
4. For things that are generally true in the present time period:
  • Boca Juniors is the best team in Argentina at the moment.
  • She is my girlfriend.
  • We study English.


Present Progressive Tense

We use the present progressive tense:
1. When somebody is doing something at this moment.
  • Sarah is changing her clothes right now.
  • Her boyfriend is waiting for her.
  • We are learning the progressive tense in English.
2. When something is happening at this moment. When the action has started but hasn't finished.
  • It is snowing at the moment.
  • The economy is growing at an exponential rate.
  • The children are sleeping so please be quiet.
3. To talk about something that is happening around the time of speaking but not necessarily at that exact moment.
  • Alfredo is studying a lot for his exam.
  • I'm reading a great book. (Not necessary right at this moment)
  • We are planning a trip to Jamaica.


Present vs. Progressive Tense

A significant difference between these two tenses is we use the simple present tense for things that are permanent or are in general and the present progressive tense for things that may change or are temporary.
Compare:
Permanent
Temporary
Simon lives in Birmingham.
Simon is living with his friends for now.
James works at a bank.
James is working at home today.
We walk to work.
We're walking in the park.
speak English.
am speaking English right now.


Verbs that we don't use in the Progressive Tense

Another difference is that there are some verbs in English that we don't use in the progressive tense. These include:
Belong - Cost - Hate - Have (possession) - Hear - Know - Like - Love - Need - Own - Remember - Seem - Smell - Understand - Want


Different Meanings

In questions the same verb can change the meaning depending on if it is in the present or the present progressive tense.
