4th Journal
October
1st, 2015
In the first lesson we
kept working with the last topic, family tree; students took a poster with
their family tree to the classroom, then, they presented it to the whole class.
Those students who had to present their family trees were anxious. In fact,
those who were not speaking in front of the class did not pay so much
attention; they were just focused on gossiping. The second class let students use
the days of the week through the elaboration of a students’ schedule. Here,
students worked peacefully and slowly, they concentrated on their piece of
homework.
In general terms, the
classes were doing well, students participated actively. However the time was
not from my part in the first class, I had to ask students to be very general
while speaking about their family. Also, I should have involved the students
who had already presented their family by asking them about the presentation
they just heard. In the second class
students did not have time to talk among them, due to the fact that they were
running out of time.
Next week, I am going
to prepare more activities based on speaking. This way, students are going to
express their ideas while using the target language. Also, I will take control
of discipline by asking students about things said before or related to the
topic worked. I can say that this is a really nice experience for my life as an
English teacher, I am learning so much from the mistakes I make, but also I am
proud of successful moments with my students at school.
