First Period

Teaching Practice I

In my case I am in advanced level. The experience was very nice even though at the beginning I was nervous. But once the group started to participate in the activities I felt better. To start the class I read a quote that help me to catch their attention, so they started to give opinions related to it. This group is studying the ¨adjective order¨ I started the class with a warm up, I provided some pictures of famous people and students made some sentences using the adjective order. Then they made a reading activity, for this activity I was afraid because in the text that students read were many words that I did not know so I had to look for the meanings of each word because I knew that they would ask for their meaning. So I explained them the meaning of those words. The activity was done and students finished all the activities that I prepared for them. The day of my practice I was lucky because the group received the class in a classroom that had enough space to do the activities. So I change the seating arrangement and they were seating in a semi circle. This group is always participating, they barely speak Spanish. But of course there are two or three of them that speak Spanish in the class. So I can say that I really enjoyed that day, but I know that I have to improve some things.
