PRESENTACIÓN

El Colegio de Bachilleres del Estado de Sonora (COBACH), desde la implementación de la Reforma Integral de
la Educación Media Superior en 2007, de forma socialmente responsable, dio inicio a la adecuación de su Plan
de estudios y a sus procesos de enseñanza aprendizaje y de evaluación para reforzar su modelo de Educación
Basada en Competencias, y así lograr que pudieran sus jóvenes estudiantes desarrollar tanto las competencias
genéricas como las disciplinares, en el marco del Sistema Nacional del Bachillerato.

Este modelo por competencias considera que, además de contar con conocimientos, es importante el uso que
se hace de ellos en situaciones específicas de la vida personal, social y profesional. Dicho de otra forma, el ser
competente se demuestra cuando, de forma voluntaria, se aplican dichos conocimientos a la resolución de
situaciones personales o a la adquisición de nuevos conocimientos, habilidades y destrezas, lo que hace que se
refuerce la adquisición de nuevas competencias.

En ese sentido el COBACH, a través de sus docentes, reestructura la forma de sus contenidos curriculares y lo
plasma en sus módulos de aprendizaje, para facilitar el desarrollo de competencias. En el caso del componente
de Formación para el Trabajo, además de las competencias genéricas, fortalece el sentido de apreciación hacia
procesos productivos, porque aunque el bachillerato que te encuentras cursando es general y te prepara para
ir a la universidad, es importante el que aprendas un oficio y poseas una actitud positiva para desempeñarlo.

De tal forma que, este módulo de aprendizaje de la asignatura de Lengua Adicional al Español 2, es una
herramienta valiosa porque con su contenido y estructura propiciará tu desarrollo como persona visionaria,
competente e innovadora, características que se establecen en los objetivos de la Reforma Integral de Educación
Media Superior.

El módulo de aprendizaje es uno de los apoyos didácticos que el COBACH te ofrece con la finalidad de garantizar
la adecuada transmisión de saberes actualizados, acorde a las nuevas políticas educativas, además de lo que
demandan los escenarios local, nacional e internacional. En cuanto a su estructura, el módulo se encuentra
organizado en bloques de aprendizaje y secuencias didácticas. Una secuencia didáctica es un conjunto de
actividades, organizadas en tres momentos: inicio, desarrollo y cierre.

En el inicio desarrollarás actividades que te permitirán identificar y recuperar las experiencias, los saberes, las
preconcepciones y los conocimientos que ya has adquirido a través de tu formación, mismos que te ayudarán
a abordar con facilidad el tema que se presenta en el desarrollo, donde realizarás actividades que introducen
nuevos conocimientos dándote la oportunidad de contextualizarlos en situaciones de la vida cotidiana, con
la finalidad de que tu aprendizaje sea significativo. Posteriormente se encuentra el momento de cierre de la
secuencia didáctica, donde integrarás todos los saberes que realizaste en las actividades de inicio y desarrollo.

En todas las actividades de los tres momentos se consideran los saberes conceptuales, procedimentales y
actitudinales. De acuerdo a las características y del propósito de las actividades, éstas se desarrollan de forma
individual, grupal o equipos.

Para el desarrollo de tus actividades deberás utilizar diversos recursos, desde material bibliográfico, videos,
investigación de campo, etcétera; así como realizar actividades prácticas de forma individual o en equipo.

La retroalimentación de tus conocimientos es de suma importancia, de ahí que se te invita a participar de


forma activa cuando el docente lo indique, de esta forma aclararás dudas o bien fortalecerás lo aprendido;
además en este momento, el docente podrá tener una visión general del logro de los aprendizajes del grupo.

4 PRELIMINARES
PRESENTACIÓN

Recuerda que la evaluación en el enfoque en competencias es un proceso continuo, que permite recabar
evidencias a través de tu trabajo, donde se tomarán en cuenta los tres saberes, con el propósito de que apoyado
por tu maestro mejores el aprendizaje. Es necesario que realices la autoevaluación, este ejercicio permite
que valores tu actuación y reconozcas tus posibilidades, limitaciones y cambios necesarios para mejorar tu
aprendizaje.

Así también, es recomendable la coevaluación, proceso donde de manera conjunta valoran su actuación, con
la finalidad de fomentar la participación, reflexión y crítica ante situaciones de sus aprendizajes, promoviendo
las actitudes de responsabilidad e integración del grupo.

Finalmente, se destaca que, en este modelo, tu principal contribución es que adoptes un rol activo y
participativo para la construcción de tu propio conocimiento y el desarrollo de tus competencias, a través de
lo que podrás dar la respuesta y la contextualización adecuadas para resolver los problemas del entorno a los
que te enfrentes, ya sean personales o profesionales.

Hollywood is a district of Los Angeles and for a long time it was nothing more but the name of a ranch. In the
early 1900s, however, movie companies decided to move from New York and New Jersey to California where
they had more space and better weather. Nestor Studios were the first to settle in the area. But more and more
followed and now Hollywood is famous all over the world for its movie studios and stars. On the Walk of Fame
(along Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Street) more than 2,000 celebrities are honored with a star.

Disneyland is situated in Anaheim, just a little south of the City of Los Angeles. The park opened on July 17, 1955
and was the first Disney Park in the world. It has been visited by more than 500,000,000 people and has several

GRAMMAR

A superlative adjective is used when you compare three or more things.


For example, looking at apples you can compare their size, determining
which is big, which is bigger and which is the biggest. The superlative
ending suffix for short, common adjectives is EST. For longer adjectives, big bigger biggest
the superlative is made by adding the word "MOST".

Example: most comfortable.


Often, the superlative adjective is preceded by "the". When we compare one thing with itself, we do not
use "the".

The same as the comparative degree some superlative adjectives are irregular, including some very common
ones such as good, bad and far.

Irregular adjectives Superlative Form


Bad worst
Good best

as" or the word "like". The most common type of simile uses "as...
as",

Example: "He's as strong as an ox." This means that he is


a very strong man (using the word "ox" helps you imagine
just how strong he is).

He is as stubborn as a mule

My little brother is one of the most annoying people in the world! I love
him because he is my brother, but he gets on my nerves a lot. I remember
one day when he was especially naughty. My mom told me to take him to
the mall to get some new dress pants and it was a nightmare! Surprisingly
enough, we got to the mall just fine and he hadn’t complained the whole
way. He asked if we could go to the arcade and I told him that we could
go once we were finished doing what we were supposed to do.

He just sat down on a bench and said that he wasn’t going anywhere if he couldn’t go to the arcade first. I had to
pull him along just so that we could get moving. Once we got to the shop, I showed him some of the options he
had. He didn’t like any of them and he would just look at me with his eyes closed and shake his head. He was being
very difficult, so I decided to tell him that I was going to call our mom. I pretended that I was dialing the phone and
he jumped up and started trying clothes on. That trick works every time! Anyway, He is as stubborn as a mule.

DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION

Read the biography. Then answer the questions.

CESAR CHAVEZ
Cesar Chavez was a Mexican-American labor leader and civil rights activist. He was a farm worker who cofounded
the biggest farm workers’ union in the USA and improved the working conditions of thousands of farm laborers.

Many see him as one of America’s greatest civil rights leaders.


More and more US states are honoring him by making his birthday
a holiday. Chavez was born in Arizona in 1927 to farm worker
parents. His childhood was not pleasant; it was very tough because
of the poverty caused by the Great Depression. Chavez was
a natural leader and in 1952 he became an administrator in the
Latino civil rights group the Community Service Organization. He
travelled throughout California urging Mexican Americans to vote
and speaking about workers’ rights.

In 196 , Chave co founded the National Farm Workers ssociation (NFW ) with Dolores Huerta. His first
success was to lead a California grape pickers strike for better wages. The strike lasted five years and attracted
the attention of Robert ennedy. The NFW won its first major labor victory for merican farm workers. Chave
moved on to campaign for the rights of other farm workers.

The NFWA developed into the United Farm Workers. Chavez led marches and encouraged farm workers across
merica to join together. He helped them strike and organi e boycotts. In the 19 0s he fasted to draw public
attention to the dangerous use of pesticides. Chavez died in 1993 of natural causes. Ten years later, America
honored him with a postage stamp.

SD2-B3

The use of cell phones in class


SH ND, hio local high school is now a cell phone free one, at least in the classroom.

Students at Hillsdale High School in shland will have to hang up their cell phones for good later this month.
Deemed that maybe that there have been distractions with the use of cell phones and stuff during the school day,
said Steve Dickerson, superintendent of Hillsdale ocal Schools.

Some of the distractions include misconduct on social media sites like Twitter. ccording to Dickerson, students
were using their cell phones to tweet and impersonate teachers and while the impersonations did not happen
during the school day, students were tweeting about it while in class.

That they are impersonating someone is a little bit of an issue with me, Dickerson said. What starts out as what
they think is innocent fun in social media today can turn into substantial problems for individuals.

The no cell phone policy actually was going to go into effect at Hillsdale High School next year but on Tuesday
night the school board voted to implement the new rule starting pril 1, the day students return from spring
break.

ur school is against cyber bullying, said Hillsdale High School Senior ohn Schaffer. It’s the same with our
baseball program. If the coaches find out we are cyber bullying one of our teammates or talking about them, he is
going to enforce that we are suspended.

They have all the teachers around, said arry Salyers. They don’t need their cell phone. They are there to learn,
not use their phone. No cell phones means students will have to leave their mobile devices in their locker, their
car or turn them into the office at the start of the day. s for parents worried about the safety of their child while
at school with no cell phone, Superintendent Dickerson said there are phones in every classroom in the event of
an emergency.

s far as assurances that we can’t get communication out with phones in the classroom I’m sure teachers will
still have cell phones on them in case of an emergency situation too, he said.

While the schools can’t control everything that happens outside of the classroom, they want to make sure they can
control what happens inside of it.

The lasting effect of this I’m hoping is that this will bring awareness to parents to take proactive approaches and
see what their children are doing in the social media realm of things, said Dickerson.

that the doors are closing. When hearing that noise, please stay away from the doors if you are on the

Dear mom.

Morelia is a great city, and so is our art school. Katya’s parents are wonderful. They have taken me
to different places, and all of them are great sites. I have fallen in love with such a beauty! Last weekend
they took me to a small village at about ten miles away from home, and… ¡wow! It is unbelievable, it just
looks as if it were a paint taken out of a great fantastic dream, the houses were so colorful and clean! The
people, ohhh… everyone was so nice, they give such nice smiles that make you feel as if you have known
each other forever.

Ramón, Katya’s father has lots of free time since he has his own business, and he says he doesn’t have to
be there all the time because he has very reliable help that do a great job. Maria, Katya’s mom said that this
coming Friday we’ll go to a small little town, to a very special feast and I’ll be able to try some delicious
local food. She says it runs all day long and we are going to leave home early morning and won’t be back
until five or six in the afternoon. I can see that we’ll have a lot of fun! Can’t wait until Friday! Am so lucky
I got in this student’s exchange program!! Ttys.

Love Yvonne.
