Third Period

Second Class of the Period

The class was on Thursday 9^th

To start the class I used the famous ´´Hot Potatoe´´ as a warm up, students had to pass it as the music as I played the music. The one that got it when the music stopped had to create a sentence with verbs that I had written on some pieces of paper. The verbs that I included in this activity were related to topic that I had to teach. The topic was gerunds and infinitives, so those verbs were the ones that take both gerunds and infinitives. And also verbs followed by objects. Then I explained the grammar part.

After that I had a song, I brought some copies with the lyrics, so they had to complete the missing part. Later I gave them some minutes to share the answers with a classmate, and then we checked them all together. The next activity was a practice I gave them some and they had to complete them with either a gerund or an infinitive. I gave them some minutes to do it, so then we checked them together. The next activity was a short video from a famous movie it was ´´Legally Blond´´.They had to watch it and then I provided some items that they had to complete according to the information presented in the movie segment. This time I did not feel nervous as the previous class the only thing is that at the end I did not have enough time to develop the last activity. It was a role play as they watch the movie they had to perform the same roles as in the movie. They had to work in groups of three, student A was a lawyer, student B was a defendant and student C was a judge. But despite the situation some of the students who performed the role play did it very well.
