Resumo

The present work was developed to complete the postgraduate degree in ELT and to put into practice some of the theories learned in the course, by applying them to the elaboration of two teaching units, each one accompanied by a teacher’s guide. The first and the second units are directed, respectively, to B2 and A2 students from English language schools. The theories on which they were based are related to the concepts (a) of genre and genre awareness, addressed by Millar (2011); (b) of corpus and corpus linguistics, described by authors such as McEnery and Hardie (2012); (c) of communicative competence and communicative approach, given by Richards and Rodgers (2001). The theories selected dialogue (in general terms) in the sense that the communicative approach comprises, among other aspects, the focus on genres, whose language structure is “portrayed” in corpora. The methodology consisted mainly of a bibliographical review, in order to elaborate the units, and of a documentary research, since their production demanded a rich variety of sources/materials.
