Dear Students,

You will participate in an assignment of making a video about what people are doing at the

Here the steps to complete the assignment:

Step 1:
Do some revision of Unit 7 again and watch a video called “What Are You Doing?” at

Step 2:
Now, get ready to talk about what people around you are doing. Think about:

Step 4:
Turn on your camera and record yourself and the people around you in a video telling us
about what they are doing at the moment of speaking.
Remember to show the people around you while you are saying what they are doing.
Practice several times before recording the final version of your video.

Here are some things to keep in mind while recording your video:
 Speak as clearly as possible.
 Smile.
 Be in a well-lit area.
 Be confident.
 Look at the camera when you speak.
 Don’t just read.

Some guidelines to make your video:

 Use vocabulary and grammar structures studied in Unit 7:

 verbs
 present progressive affirmative and negative
 let’s
 Your video should last about 1 minute or 1 minute and a half (1’-1’30).
 Use youtube.com to make the video. Test your video works well before sending the link.
Change video privacy setting to “Public” so your teacher can view it.
 You can also use any other software to make your video.
 You have to paste the link of your video and the script (the script is referential) in the
Assignment section (Actividad in Unit 7) on Blackboard.
 Use the template below (See page 3).

Assessment criteria:
 pronunciation and intonation
 fluency
 accuracy
