first class experience, second period.

On Thursday 12^th, I had the chance to be teaching to the intermediate level I. This time I started with unit number five which is called In Shape. Fortunately, it was the unit Veronica and I did last period, so that I had some ideas about the lesson plan. To start, I introduced myself, and I asked students to do the same by standing up and telling their names and one of the expectations they had from the course. As a warm up activity, students listened to a song named fighter by Christina Aguilera, the students’ job was to underline all the adjectives they found through the reading. After that, they mentioned all the adjectives as a whole class. As a presentation, they were working on their books; they had to answer a questionnaire and at the end, they had to calculate the score and compare it with their classmates. Then, I introduced the grammar part, it was about comparatives and superlatives forms of adjectives; I really liked the way I did it because I could see how motivated students were when I provided some written examples, and also when I made use of realia for them to had a better understanding. In generally, it was all I did in the class. Let me tell you that I felt confident with students because they were participating and asking different questions. In the feedback the teacher told me about many things that according to her I need to improve, even though I know not all she told me is the true. To sum up, I just want to thank the teacher because in this opportunity I could remember what he told us at the beginning of the year, and it was to pay attention to everything we consider is important, and not to those things you are sure you do well in your classes and that some teachers criticize you.
