INTRODUCTION
1 Greetings
Tune Up IV Medio has been developed and written taking account the patterns and activities most relevant to the
effective learning process adequate for IV Medio students in Chile.
The book was created with the intention of giving the teacher a set of resources and guidelines that will facilitate
interactive, fun and interesting classes and achieve visible results. By giving students access to a variety of authentic
materials and orienting the lessons to encourage communication about real teenagers issues in Chile, the book
provides a wide range of possibilities for both teacher and student.
Language textbooks often prioritise grammar and closed-response activities, but the goal of Tune Up IV Medio
was to trust students ability to not only follow instructions, but also to expand and develop their own ideas and
opinions in English. By focusing on themes while giving functional examples of grammar, the book encourages
students to express themselves individually and recognise their own unique path towards mastering the English
language.
Language, at its most basic, is needed for communication and verbal exchange of ideas. Concepts, vocabulary and
grammar are irrelevant if they arent used to effectively express oneself.

A recent United Nations report states that South African men work on average just four-and-a-half hours a
day. However, they are workaholics in comparison to Jon Ecclestone from England.
The man, who has been married for twenty-two years, makes his wife and two children do everything around
the home. He hardly ever does anything to help.
His wife, Margaret, takes a cooked breakfast to him in bed every morning before he leaves for his job as a
mechanic. Then, its a rush to get all his washing and ironing done before starting on the chores around the
home. I do all the DIY jobs, like painting the garden fence and fixing the taps in the kitchen and bathroom.
And thats as well as all the vacuuming and dusting. I also work outside the home of course she says.
Jon hopes his dinner will be on a tray waiting for him when he gets home so that he can take it upstairs to
eat on the bed while watching TV. He never buys his family birthday or Christmas presents. Instead he gives
them a ten-pound note each from his wallet, if he remembers! I havent bought myself any clothes since weve

What is exercise?
Exercise is basically the use of energetic movement to keep our bodies fit and healthy.
i The human body was not designed to be sedentary, but to move. In the past, mankind had to do physical tasks
on a daily basis. However, technology has made our lives easier in many ways and, as a result, we move considerably
less today. We drive to the shops instead of walking or we take the lift rather than going up two flights of stairs. Many
of us prefer indoor pastimes, like watching TV or playing video games, to outdoor activities.
ii There are numerous benefits to doing exercise. Exercise:
strengthens hearts, lungs and blood vessels.
facilitates good sleeping patterns.
gives us more energy.
iii If we choose to go for a walk with a friend, we can have a chat. If we join a sports club or a gym, we can
meet people with similar interests and possibly develop new friendships. Being with others makes exercise more
interesting and motivating.
iv It is important to choose the right exercise type for our bodies, and one that will encourage us to continue.
If you want to improve muscular strength, you could do anaerobic exercise, like weightlifting. To improve physical
endurance, aerobic exercise is important. Activities such as jogging, dancing or swimming are aerobic and also help
augment overall fitness. Flexibility can be improved by regular stretching.
v Current guidelines recommend that we spend at least thirty minutes a day being physically active. It doesnt
need to be expensive. You can take exercise at home by tidying the sitting room or dancing to your favourite music.
Not having enough time is no longer a valid excuse. Everyone has thirty minutes. Come on, lets get fit!

say out loud what they remember having read or listened about these topics and make some notes on the board
too.
Reading
1. Go through the instructions and check students have understood by asking some questions such as Do you
need to write anything? and Do you need to match?. You can also help them by explaining how to work in this type
of activities, in which they should first read quickly for a general idea of what the text I about and then scan for
specific information that links each paragraph to a heading. Students read and match individually so they can later
check with a partner. Answers: a ii; b iv; c iii; d i; e v

answers. Answers: a T; b F; c T; d F; e T
Writing
3. Encourage students to plan their writing in order to save time and organise their ideas better. After writing, direct
students to the General Writing Rubric with Descriptors on page 188 of the Students book so they can assess
their own written piece before handing it in and to follow the three stages of writing (planning-producing-revising).

concepts.
1. Students complete the diagram with words that fit each category (nasty-healthy, healthy-nice, nice-unhealthy,
and unhealthy-nasty). They should then compare in pairs and see what words from their partner are interesting
for them to note down. Answers will vary.
2. Students choose a partner to interview. This partner may choose another one to interview, but make sure
everyone is interviewing and being interviewed. Answers will vary.
3. Ask students what jobs healthy people do (usually sports). Get them to work in pairs and choose one person
who is inspiring to write about. They can tell the class later who they chose and why.
Wrap Up
Ask students which people they wrote about. Make a list on the board and choose the top three or four by having
students vote. Then, divide the class in as many groups as top people you have (three or four) and get students to

There are reasons to be optimistic about the future of the planet, but many scientists warn us that the changes will be for the

the population is projected to grow to 9 billion by 2050.This increase puts huge pressure on natural resources.The challenge of

Protecting the environment is becoming more and more important in our daily lives.
__________ (a) Eco-home is the term used to describe these environmentally friendly houses. The concept behind
these homes is that they leave the smallest carbon footprint possible. They are built with materials from sustainable
sources and they are designed to use very little energy.
__________ (b) This zero carbon house has a concrete base and the rest of it is made of wood. The house itself is
prefabricated, which means that it costs very little, environmentally, to make or transport. To keep the house warm,
various systems are used. Power is generated using wind turbines and solar panels. Modern technology has also
allowed them to construct a greenhouse which produces its own energy and they grow their fruit and vegetables.The
Reas believe that their home is an ordinary house. Will we all be living in eco-homes in the future?
__________ (c) In fact, architects have taken on the challenge of designing house plans that are environmentally
friendly and built with sustainable materials.
__________ (d) One of the worlds first zero carbon homes (eco-home) can be seen on Unst Island in the north of
Scotland. Unst Island is one of the most difficult places to live in the UK: its an island where there are frequent storms
with strong winds in winter and the sun doesnt set there in the summer. Despite these problems, it is here that the
Rea Family decided to build their environmentally friendly house.
__________ (e) We all try to reduce, recycle and reuse things like plastic containers and paper. The environment is
something which affects every one of us: from architects to zoologists.

1 Look back at unit 8 and for each lesson, choose a topic that called your attention. For each topic, note down some
words you find important or interesting. Use a spider map to organise your ideas and to see how words are related.
Here is an example:
cars
Chile and
mining
the price of pollution
progress industries

Wrap Up
In this case activity 6 is set for homework, encourage them to prepare a class presentation that includes
information, music and graphic resources to tell about R&B. Students could even wear costumes and have a
music fair for other classes too.
Background Information
Rhythm and blues (R&B) was born in the 1940s. It was a combination of jazz and blues with a strong rhythm
for dancing too. 1950s rock and roll has its origins in R&B, and R&B influenced soul in the 1960s and funk in the
1970s. Contemporary R&B has hip-hop and pop influences, and Mariah Carey, Destinys Child and Usher are

Wrap Up
Have students think about their favourite song or poem. They should write a description of its message musical
style. Get each student to give the description of their favourite song/poem so the rest of the class can guess the
name and author.
Background Information
Poetry uses forms and conventions to suggest differential interpretation to words, or to evoke emotive responses.
Devices such as assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia and rhythm are sometimes used to achieve musical or
incantatory effects. The use of ambiguity, symbolism, irony and other stylistic elements of poetic diction often
leave a poem open to multiple interpretations. Similarly, metaphor, simile and metonymy create a resonance
between otherwise disparate imagesa layering of meanings, forming connections previously not perceived.
Kindred forms of resonance may exist, between individual verses, in their patterns of rhyme or rhythm.
