The use of poetry as a means of foreign language learning - English, and as a tool to foster student’s language skills in Primary Education: A didactic proposal

Abstract

This Final Degree Project is based on the use of poetry as a tool to promote the learning of English and the language skills of Primary Education students including a didactic proposal. Thus, this project focuses on the intentions and the communicative relationship that exist between this literary genre and the students. To this end, a proposal based on task-based learning is developed for Year 3 of Primary Education, where poetry is used to achieve the maximum development of the students' language. In this way, I justify the chosen topic and specify the objectives I intend to achieve with this project, as well as dealing with an intervention proposal (We are poets!) based on a previous theoretical framework.
