Contextualization
Learning a new language is an exciting and challenging journey. English is a globally recognized language and essential in various spheres of life, whether in education, work, travel, or communication in general. One of the first steps to learning a new language is to familiarize yourself with basic vocabulary, which includes the topic of 'Names and Greetings'.
Names simply refer to how we address each other, creating identity and intimacy among people. Greetings, on the other hand, are a common and polite way to start conversations and social interactions. Throughout this project, we will delve into the world of greetings and names in English!
Now imagine yourself in an English-speaking city. How would you start a conversation? How would you introduce yourself and greet people? We need to understand that learning greetings and names in English is not just about memorizing words and phrases. It's about understanding the culture and customs behind these words, it's an open door to deeper connections with people from around the world!
Introduction
In this project, students will learn how to introduce themselves in English and start a conversation using appropriate greetings in different contexts. Additionally, we will explore the variety of existing greetings, from the most formal to the most informal. And of course, we will discuss the importance of knowing a person's name and how to ask for it correctly.
The goal is not only to improve your language skills but also to provide a platform to discuss and learn about socio-emotional aspects, such as interpersonal communication, empathy, and cultural understanding.
