This project started from the main assumption that prosody was missing in the
teaching of pronunciation in Spanish high-schools. The importance of teaching this
resides in the fact that prosodic features are key elements for the transmission of oral
messages, as they imply a lot of information. A research was carried out in which I
analysed an English textbook used in a Spanish high-school and, surprisingly, it
contained explanations of the pronunciation and the prosodic features of the language.
Nevertheless, these aspects of the language were omitted in the internship lessons.
Thus, a didactic unit was created and implemented to show the students the importance
and the relevance of paying attention to these features when studying a foreign
language. The results show that the students were willing to study this, as they thought
it was very useful. [-]
