2BAC. Unit 3. Health-Prevention Campaign + Passive / w/ Reported verbs / Have soemthing done (2021)

 Dear students,

Happy new year! Are you ready to become health experts? In this Unit we are going to develop a Prevention Campaign in the field of Health. With the COVID Pandemics I am sure you already know a lot about prevention campaigns and vaccination, and the importance of a good communication strategy. Now, it's your turn. Team up, decide on a topic, analyze previous campaigns and get ready to create and promote your own!

Previous issues: Vocabulary (acronyms) and Passive Voice

https://zoomenglish.blogspot.com/2020/01/2bac-passive-with-reporting-verbs-have.html

This year's campaigns:

Groups and topics:

Lice	Tobacco	Blood donation	Obesity/ Overweight	Alcoholism	ISSUE
Nerea Mariona Carla	Bea Gina  Carlota	Aurora Nico Janire	Paulo Javier	Oscar Victor	Members (2-3 members)

1-PROJECT. a) Individual task  b) Group project  

A) INDIVIDUAL TASK

Analyze a campaign that has already been published on your topic from the point of view of the communication process.

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lx4bWN4eNM0

• Context: 1990, high school changing rooms and gym. The headteacher finds a preservative and wants to know whose this is in an accusing mood. A student says it's his, followed by the rest of his classmates.
• Sender: Ministerio de Sanidad y Consumo de España (Spanish Ministry of Health and Consume)
• Message: Text: Póntelo. Pónselo. Image: a condom.
• Code (to encode and decode): Spanish.
• Channel (medium): audiovisual (TV ad).
• Receiver: young people.

You can comment on the tone of the ad (informative, funny, serious, sarcastic, ironic, dramatic...) and the purpose (connecting with the audience...). Also the noise (the quality of the image in the link is not very high).

Furthermore, you have to include a personal report INDIVIDUALLY explaining, as a personal diary/log:

• the communication circuit of your campaign;
• what you have done in the campaign;
• how you have worked in the team;
• and what you have learnt about the experience.

B) GROUP TASK

Finish your health campaign (teamwork). As the final product must be a video/audio/poster/infographic, feel free to send it to this email. For large documents, you can use WeTransfer. Just a reminder, your mission is to design a PREVENTION campaign.

You can change your topic as long as you all agree on a new topic.

Steps:

1.       Explain the problem, causes-consequences, solutions.

2.       Design your campaign: target audience (kids, teachers, ESO students?), message (visual and textual) and channel (video, audio, PowerPoint, poster...)

3.       Oral presentation (when we come back)

ESO4: Have you ever listened to this song? + Body parts and going to the doctor's (Unit 3)

SONG AND GAME:

Form the past participle of these verbs and check its meaning:
REGULAR (-ed): climb-   scale-   crawl-   kiss-
IRREGULAR (3rd column): run-   find-   speak-  hold-

Now, as you listen to this song by U2, order its parts.
http://www.multimedia-english.com/videos/music/i-still-havent-found-what-im-looking-for-5268

Then, check the lyrics.

Reflect:
1-Where is the particle "still" placed?
2-Is the sentence affirmative, negative or interrogative?
3-What two words do we use in the Present Perfect?
Auxiliary: _____ (present tense) + verb  (p____ p______ )
4-When do we usually use the present perfect?
5-In your opinion, what's the meaning of the song?

Look for affirmative and negative forms of the present perfect in the song. Then make the questions that they would answer. For example: Have you climbed the highest mountains? Try adding ever, yet and already.
Have you ever climbed the highest mountains?
Have you climbed the highest mountains yet?
Have you already climbed the highest mountains?

Quizz: Where are U2 from? What are the two main religions in their country?  What were the Troubles?

VOCABULARY REVISION

How many body parts can you find in the lyrics?

I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you.

I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you.

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her finger tips
It burned like fire
(I was) burning inside her.

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone.

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.

I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
Bleed into one.
But yes, I'm still running.

You broke the bonds
And you loosed the chains
Carried the cross of my shame
Oh my shame, you know I believe it.

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.

But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
But I still haven't found
