MY LAST PRACTICE!

Describe

What I saw during this slice of lesson is that my students were familiarized to play games and have the class more pleasurable, but I could not include too many games in this class because of the topic. However, they paid me attention when explaining the new grammar structure. The students were playing “follow the leader” as a warm up, and I noticed that this activity worked very well because they remembered what they had studied the previous class. I felt nice when some students told me that the birthday of 2 students were today; so we sang the “happy birthday song”. I arranged the desks first in a horse-shoe, and then we made a circle in order to play bingo. I used some colorful charts, and a multiple choice activity. Today was a nice class.

I think that students seem the grammar explanation kind of boring because of what they have heard.

In order to avoid being boring when explaining grammar, teachers must use colorful charts.

I think this is important because this make the environment more enjoyable and interactively.  


Based on what I already know about beginning the class with a warm up, it is proved that students tend to cheer themselves up.

Based on what I observed, I think students generally like to play in the middle of the class, so that we played Bingo.

I believe that confidence helps to keep a good flow in the class.

So, in the future, I will include more colorful charts.

In future lessons I will incorporate kinesthetic activities.

The next time I teach this lesson, I will incorporate groups work.

In future experiences I will also include oral practice as English access students like to talk.

  1. Hello Rosa! I agree with you. Some students are not interested in the grammar part because sometimes teachers confuse them. Maybe, the topic can be interesting, but they get confuse when the teacher does not go to the point. I think that a simple grammar explanation is ok since they are more interested in speaking. They go crazy when they are going to make speaking activities. You did a good job!
