The purpose of the current research was to strength the production of non-literary written dialogues by using idiomatic expressions in the English- Language teaching-learning process, applied to second level students, class B in the Language Center at Escuela Superior Politécnica de Chimborazo from October 2016 to March 2017. It has been evidenced that the syllabus of the Language Center does not consider the use of idiomatic expressions, so the students acquire neither lexicography nor appropriate vocabulary. This was a correlational, quasi experimental, field trip and documentary research applied to two heterogeneous groups; a control group and an experimental group. The control group developed the traditional contents planned in the institutional syllabus, while the experimental group developed a set of activities as a methodological strategy; a booklet was also designed for being used as a guide by the teachers. Both groups were evaluated through a rubric in two stages: the pre-test and post-test obtaining data to be tabulated, analyzed, interpreted and then compared in order to prove the hypothesis. It was determined that the use of idiomatic expressions strengthens the production of non-literary written dialogues, so it is recommended to apply them in the English language teaching-learning process.

Em uma perspectiva interacionista sociodiscursiva, advogamos que, para alcançar seus objetivos, o trabalho com línguas na rede regular pública de ensino pode ser planejado em sequências didáticas organizadas em torno degêneros textuais. Tais unidades visam ao desenvolvimento de capacidades de linguagem, entendidas como “aptidões requeridas para a realização de um texto numa situação de interação determinada” (DOLZ; PASQUIER; BRONCKART, 1993, p.30). A partir desses pressupostos, sequências didáticas foram aplicadas a alunos de uma escola municipal de Joinville, ao longo de um ano escolar, com o objetivo de possibilitar a participação efetiva em um projeto de troca de correspondências. Dentre os gêneros abordados, selecionamos receitas culinárias para o escopo deste artigo, que visa, assim, descrever o material elaborado e analisar as produções de um aluno de modo a ilustrar oportunidades (ou não) de desenvolvimento de capacidades de linguagem possibilitadas por um trabalho dessa natureza. Palavras-chave: Interacionismo Sociodiscursivo; gênero textual receita culinária; sequência didática; ensino-aprendizagem de língua inglesa; desenvolvimentode capacidades de linguagem.The work with a didactic sequence of recipes in English as an additional language in a public schoolAbstract In a sociodiscursive interactionist perspective, we advocate that, to achieve its goals, the work with languages in public regular schools can be planned in didactic sequences towards genres. Such units aim at the development of language capacities (DOLZ; PASQUIER; BRONCKART, 1993). Based on these principles, didactic sequences were employed with students of a public school in Joinville, during a school year, with the objective of contributing to their effective participation in a pen pal Project. Among the genres handled, cooking recipeswere taken as scope of this paper, which aims at describing the material planned and analyze the productions of one student in order to illustrate the opportunities of language capacities development enabled by a work of thisnature.Keywords: Sociodiscursive Interacionism; genre cooking recipe; didactic sequences; English language teaching/learning; language capacities development.

<p>The use of local culture in the teaching of English as a foreign language in Indonesia may lead into consideration since language and culture are interrelated. Local culture in English language teaching enables students to learn English skills well because students are asked to discuss or describe something they know very well. This paper reports the results of an experimental study which was concerned with how well bringing local culture in English Language Teaching could affect students’ writing achievement. Quasi-experimental research applying non-randomized pretest-posttest design was used in this study. The subjects of the study were the students of English Department of College of Teacher Training and Education in Blitar.

The results showed that bringing local culture in English language teaching produced better achievement of the students’ writing skill.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Keywords: </strong><em>local culture; writing achievement, English language teaching<strong></strong></em></p>
