The English Worksheets are an educational resource designed to teach English with a Communicative approach, focusing on the practical use of the language in real-life situations. This digital material is organized to support the development of the competencies outlined in the National Curriculum for Basic Education, it includes the four language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Its goal is to improve students' communicative competencies in English through a gradual process that allows them to develop each interconnected skill progressively.

Each worksheet contains five lessons, organized around achievable functions and performance outcomes, known as can-do statements. These statements allow students to measure their progress and ensure that their achievements are realistic and attainable. The emphasis on practical communication helps students learn and apply useful expressions and structures for everyday situations, such as asking questions, expressing opinions, requesting information, offering help, and describing situations. The lessons are designed to use various strategies and resources, addressing each function in real contexts to facilitate learning with a communicative purpose and in authentic scenarios.

The English Worksheets include sections that introduce students to the culture of English-speaking countries (Zoom), allow them to explore the structure of the language (Language Discovery), and provide opportunities to practice what they have learned (Your Turn). An important resource is the interactive audio, which offers language models to improve both listening comprehension and oral expression.

The design of the English Worksheets is flexible and can be adapted to different educational contexts, such as individual or group work. Teachers can adjust activities and content based on the specific needs of the students. Additionally, the material includes phases of pre and post self-assessment and comprehension checks during the lesson, which promote student autonomy by reflecting on their progress, identifying areas for improvement, and setting learning goals. These phases support self-regulated learning and align with the vision of "Assessing to Learn."
