My Second Class!

I started my class with a review about the previous topics, so students had the opportunity to remember about important information. Then, I tried to teach about the topic ¨Family Members¨, so it was difficult to explain because some of the students looked confused. I tried to use some activities in order to make the topic easier for the students. I consider that for students is difficult to learn a lot vocabulary at the same time, so it is important to make the vocabulary understandable for students at the moment to teach it. Moreover, I remember that I wanted to use the projector and the computer during the class because students can understand more when they have visual material, but unfortunately it was not possible because my USB did not work. I think that we as future teachers have to face this kind of problem/s, so we have to have a plan B.

My second class was different that the first class because I made a lot of mistakes during the development of the activities. I remember that the teacher made some observations about grammar in my activities, so it was not so good. In the other hand, I consider that students in this group are really intelligent because they participated during the class; they also helped me to develop all the activities.

Something that I did not like in my class: I consider that my class was not excellent but it was acceptable. I did not like the mistakes that I made about grammar because I didn´t feel comfortable with the group and the teacher. The most important, it is to know that if we want to learn, we have to make mistakes.

Something that I liked in my class: I liked the beginning of the class because students really liked the way in which they practiced previous topics (warm-up). The teacher also liked the warp up as a review.

I tried to do the best during my second class, and I know that I learned many things. It is important to remember that each class is a new experience, and a new way to learn more.
