It integrates some of the ideas from cognitive linguistics into existing classroom approaches for teaching English as a second language through a series of lesson plans developed by teachers of English from Mainland China and Hong Kong. The lesson plans provide step-by-step instructions for teachers, including resources and an explanation of the theories underpinning each step. These plans, many of which are integrated into specific English as a foreign language textbook units, encourage teachers to be creative by adding or adapting the material they have in order to engage their students. Although the main audience is English teachers, the theoretical principles covered are applicable to teachers of any foreign language and the practical examples, provided in the lesson plans, can be easily modified to teach other languages as well. Similarly, it is not just for teachers working in Chinese contexts but for anyone interested in embodied cognition as a teaching approach. I intend these pages to serve as a companion for teachers to reflect on their existing practices, to provide new ideas and to make them aware of the many factors affecting learning. 606 $aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$zChina 606 $aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$xChinese speakers 615 0$aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aEnglish language$xStudy and teaching$xChinese speakers. 676 $a428.0071051 700 $aLopez-Ozieblo$b Renia$01424203 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910739482303321 996 $aTheory and Practice from a Cognitive Perspective$93553261 997 $aUNINA
