Abstract
"Describe a tu mejor amigo, describe tu habitación, describe un festival…” éstas y otras actividades análogas nos resultan familiares porque con frecuencia las hemos llevado a cabo como estudiantes de lengua extranjera o las hemos requerido a nuestros alumnos. Repetidas en varios cursos, el alumno tiene la sensación de realizar el mismo ejercicio año tras año, produciéndose un lógico rechazo hacia la tarea propuesta. Proponemos aquí actividades relacionadas con el texto descriptivo, que tienen como objeto conseguir que el estudiante de lengua extranjera se enfrente con una actitud positiva a la tarea de la descripción. A través del interés por el ejercicio a realizar, pasará progresivamente de las actividades académicas dirigidas a una escritura autónoma, independiente del profesor.
"Describe your best friend, describe your bedroom, describe a festival…” these and some other similar activities are familiar to us all because either we have done them as foreign language learners or have required them from our students. When repeated course after course, the student feels s/he is repeating the same exercise over and over again, and consequently, rejects the task s/he has been asked to do. In this article, different activities related to the descriptive text are suggested. Their aim is to make the foreign language student face the task of description with a positive attitude. Through the interest in the task, the student will progressively move from directed activities to an autonomous writing, independent from the instructor.
