Resumen
[ES] El objetivo de este Trabajo de Fin de Máster es diseñar un proyecto didáctico para alumnos de habla
hispana de 4o de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO) en el que se les enseñe la fónica y la fonética del
Inglés Internacional (Lingua Franca Core, LFC) con el fin de mejorar su pronunciación. Junto a estos
contenidos, también se les pedirá que desarrollen, en pequeños grupos, un número cómico stand-up,
donde producirán algunos juegos de palabras con los conocimientos adquiridos.
Para respaldar actividades creadas para el proyecto didáctico, se ha incluido un marco teórico. En él se
han discutido los beneficios para la inteligibilidad internacional de la LFC, junto con algunas posibles
modificaciones. Además, se han descrito en detalle las dificultades del alumnado de habla hispana, y
también las del alumnado con problemas comunicativos, así como la enseñanza de la pronunciación del
inglés y el uso del humor en el aula.

Alongside those contents, they will also be requested to develop a stand-up comedy act in small groups, in which they will produce a few puns with the knowledge they have acquired. To back up the activities created for the didactic project, a theoretical framework has been included. In it, the benefits for international intelligibility of the LFC have been discussed, together with some possible modifications. Moreover, the difficulties of Spanish-speaking learners, and also those of students with communicative impairments, have been described in detail, as well as the instruction of English pronunciation and the use of humour in the classroom.
