North-American cultural contents for EFL in Early Childhood Education: a didactical proposal

Abstract

In the first part of this project I will examine some of the literature existing about the teaching of English culture and propose techniques, resources and materials for this purpose. The second part is oriented to the work in class in the last year of Preschool Education in Spain, and the place cultural contents occupy within infant scholar didactical materials, analyzing a selection of textbooks, comprised in a determined school year and thematic core. Finally I will share a didactic proposal to make the teaching of culture a better experience for both teachers and students in EFL (English as a Foreign Language) classrooms.
