摘要：Using the theoretical framework of instructional strategies (Woods, 1996), this paper analy zes the relationship between the beliefs and practices of an EFL teacher in Brazil in relation to her lesson planning. This study was carried out bearing in mind Wood’s suggested characteristics: a) the structure of teaching; b) the planning processes and c) the beliefs, assumptions and knowledge which give support to the actions. Based on interviews with a teacher about a successful and an unsuccessful experience, interviews with her students and classroom observation, it was possible to identify the interpretative and decision making processes involved in the creation, structuring and development of classroom events.
