 COMO APROVEITAR AO MÁXIMO SUA

GROUP CLASS
1. O Tutor é americano e não fala português. Não arrisca nem um “bom dia”. O objetivo dessa aula é
sua imersão total no idioma, praticando o “Speaking”, onde você responderá e fará perguntas ao seu
tutor e aos seus colegas de classe, o “Listening and Comprehension”, que é a sua capacidade de ouvir
e entender palavras e frases em inglês, e o “Chatting” que é escrever respostas a perguntas feitas
pelo seu tutor no “chat box”.

2. A sua GROUP CLASS terá duração de 60 minutos. Os primeiros 45 minutos serão usados pelo tutor
para passar todo o conteúdo da aula. Os últimos 15 minutos serão destinados a dar feedback individual
sobre o seu desempenho.

3. Para assistir a GROUP CLASS, você precisa instalar o app Zoom. O app está disponível para Win-
dows, iOS e Android.

IMPORTANTE: LIGUE SUA CÂMERA E SEU MICROFONE / TURN ON YOUR CAMERA AND MIC

No canto inferior esquerdo você encontrará as opções para habilitar seu vídeo e áudio. Sem habilitar
essas duas funções você não conseguirá aproveitar sua aula.

4. No início da aula, o tutor se apresentará e pedirá para que todos os alunos se apresentem; pense
antecipadamente qual seria a sua melhor apresentação em inglês; além disto, serão apresentados seus
objetivos (alvos) para a aula. Reflita sobre isto também.

5. Ao longo da GROUP CLASS, o Tutor fará enquetes e atividades sobre o conteúdo: você terá opções
de resposta Yes (Sim) / No (Não) ou Multiple Choice (Múltipla escolha); seu tutor dará orientação se
você deve responder no “chat box” ou na própria ferramenta do Zoom.

IMPORTANTE: HABILITE SEU CHAT BOX

Na parte inferior, centralizado, você encontrará o botão “chat”. Habilite essa função para que
consiga interagir com o tutor e os demais alunos durante a sua aula.

6. Ao final da aula, o tutor fará perguntas de encerramento do assunto e dividirá os alunos em salas sepa-
radas “breakout zoom”; nesta sala individualizada ele dará o feedback sobre a sua participação na aula.

IMPORTANTE: NÃO SAIA DA AULA ANTES DE SUA AVALIAÇÃO! AGUARDE NA SUA SALA
INDIVIDUAL, O TUTOR FALARÁ COM TODOS OS ALUNOS.

7. Após o término da sua GROUP CLASS, você receberá uma pesquisa muito rápida de avaliação
da aula, tutor e conteúdo. Com a sua ajuda, estamos construindo a maior plataforma de ensino
de inglês à distância do mundo.

Com a Soulphia você poderá realizar o seu sonho de falar inglês, enquanto ajuda a transformar
as vidas de nossas tutoras!

E não se esqueça: HAVE FUN!

Enjoy your Group Class!!!

For this activity, you will refresh vocabulary related to food.
*Tutor will share the material on screen*.

Remember that: regular COUNTABLE nouns are the ones that

you can count like 1, 2, 3, using numbers and that they take both
singular (original word) and plural form (word + s/es/ies). For
example: Tomato (only 1) or tomatoes (2 or more).

And, UNCOUNTABLE nouns are the ones that you cannot count
like 1, 2, and 3, using numbers because they may be the names for
abstract ideas or qualities or for physical objects that are too small
or too amorphous to be counted (liquids, powders, gases, etc.).
So, they do not take singular plural. For example: Water.

You will take turns reading each of the items on the list out loud,
one by one.

Your tutor will help you with your pronunciation. The first time, you will
read the name of the item. The second time, your tutor will say the
word. Be sure to listen to the tutor’s pronunciation! The third time,
the whole class will pronounce the word correctly with the tutor.

For example:
• Student A: Tomato.
• Tutor: Tomato
• All students: Tomato.

Then, we will talk about your food preferences using the structure:
Do do you like _________________?

For example:
• Student A: Do you like tomatoes?
• Student B: Yes, I do. Do you like to drink milk?
• Student C: No, I don’t. Do you like coffee?

 Poll: Select the correct option
1. Examples of countable nouns are:
a. Eggs, potatoes and burgers
b. Bread, juice and butter
c. Cheese, water and rice

2. Examples of uncountable nouns are:

a. Hot dogs and fries.
b. Carrots and grapes.
c. Sugar and milk.

SPEAK YOUR MIND

For this activity, you will take turns in order to make questions
with how much and how many, according to some food items
presented in the list below (countable and uncountable).
As you can see, you have to select a food item as a noun;
so that then, you can make a question with that same item.
Use the structure:

HOW + MUCH (for uncountable nouns) or MANY

(for countable nouns) + NOUN + Verb to BE
in Present Simple tense (IS or ARE) + THERE + ?

For example:
Eggs ➡ Question: How many eggs are there?
(“Eggs” is a countable noun in plural form).

Ketchup ➡ Question: How much ketchup is there?

(“Ketchup” is an uncountable noun which is always in singular form).
