Second Practice (3rd P)

Describe In this class, I developed just some activities to practice the gerunds as object of prepositions. I could notice that students were kind of confused with some of the rules to apply the prepositions, so I gave a short review of the topic. The class was good, and the sitting arrangement was in the normal way. Some of the materials used were markers, photocopies, and a chart.

I can say that developing activities is not too difficult; however, if the students have doubt about the topic, it is necessary to give an explanation. I think that having a plan B is very helpful when teaching. I used the chart as plan B to give the review of the topic which was necessary. I developed a short reading to make students see how the gerunds as obj. of prepositions work in context.	Giving the meaning of words that Ss do not know is very important to have a successful class; however, there are some times that I run out of words to explain, and I feel nervous. Writing activities are good tool to see if the students have understood the topic, so that why I started my class with one writing act.	In the future, I will develop more kinesthetic activities. In future lessons, I will apply more techniques to catch students’ attention, The next time I work with this topic, I will make students speak more for making them improve their speaking skill, and to avoid too much TTT.

first class (3rd P)

Describe In this class, I developed something related to how colors influence in personality to start the unit, and then I gave grammar part that was about gerunds and infinitives as direct object. The seating arrangement was in the normal way. And some of the materials I used were a chart, markers, and some photocopies.

I can say that when talking about personality there is a lot to say, and we can take advantage of that. I used a short reading about the psychology of colors to see how they influence in personality. In the grammar part, I could notice that students easily understood the topic; however, they had some problems with the different verbs.	I developed those activities to introduce the new unit. I think students like to talk about personality and learn new thing about it. I believe that introducing a new topic is hard, especially gerunds and infinitives since there are special verbs to use in both cases.	In the future, I will include more speaking activities. In future lesson, I will make students participate more. The next time I teach, I will provide more example to give  a better explanation.

last one (2nd P)

Describe In the last class, I developed the class about animals. The class was funny since the students like to talk about animals. At the beginning, the seating arrangement was in the normal way, then, I changed to pair work. And some of the materials I used were flashcards, markers, and the board. The environment was really awesome.

I can say that giving a class about animals is a little bit difficult for the different parts of them. I used some flashcards, which were really helpful, to teach the parts of the animals. I developed a follow up activity with the flashcards. They have to write sentences using the animals’ parts.	, I developed some activities in which they talk about different animals. I think students like to learn new animals’ names, not only the commons ones. I believe that speaking activities are really helpful with this kind of topic.	In the future, I will include more animals’ name for the lesson. In future lesson, I will develop   a debate to see different points of view about animals. The next time I teach, I will include more visual aids.

second class (second period)

Describe In this second class, I started with a funny warm up just to cheer students up. This helped me to have a better beginning of the class. The topic was paired conjunctions and students understood the topic really quick. The seating arrangement was in the normal way. And some of the materials I used were charts, markers, the board, and some photocopies. The environment was really awesome.

I can say that teaching the paired conjunctions is not too hard; however, there are some moments in which we have to be careful in their use because it can be confusing. I gave some grammar notes to explain the differences between the paired conjunctions. I gave them some sentences in which they had to fill in the blanks to practice the new topic.	Based on what I already know about paired conjunctions, I tried to be clear not to confuse them in the different use. I think students like to participate to improve their English by practicing it. I believe that the participation of the students really help to perform an amazing class. And also it helps to save time.	In the future, I will set time for the students to develop the activities. In future lesson, I will develop different activities to have a better class, The next time I teach, I will look for more material to give to the students.

First Class (second period)

Describe This class was great, I could notice that the students like to participate. I had to teach the quantifiers. I realized that some of the students work really fast. The   arrangement of the class was in the horse shoe to have the attention of the students. The materials used were the board, markers, the book, and some photocopies.

Interpret	Generalize
I can say that teaching quantifiers is not too difficult, but we have to be careful when giving this topic because of the different quantifiers. Also I think that is not a hard topic for students since the grammar is not too difficult. They just have to memorize that some of them are for countable things and others for uncountable. Choosing the activities for this topic is really important since we have to catch students’ attention.	Based on what I already know about quantifiers, we have to teach them in different context to show how they work in different situations. Based on what I observed, I think students generally finish the activities really fast. I believe that when students finish an activity really fast can help to make more students to share what they have done.	So, in the future, I will add different activities. In future lessons I will give my class with more authority to have a better class. The next time I teach, I will monitor more than I did in this lesson.

Third Class

Describe The last class of this period was awesome. I had to teach the comparatives and superlatives. I could notice that students learned really quickly about the topic, and they enjoy the class. The arrangement of the class was in the horse shoe. The materials used were charts, the board, markers, and some photocopies. The charts were used for explaining the grammar part, and the photocopies to develop the activities.

Interpret	Generalize
I can say that teaching comparatives and superlatives is not too difficult since there are many activities that can be used when giving this topic. Also I think that is not a hard topic for students since the grammar is not too difficult; however, the teacher has to be careful with the rules. Teaching the rules in the appropriate form is important to give a clear class. And this help students to understand the topic easily.	Based on what I already know about comparative and superlative, I think using own examples in the class can be helpful. Based on what I observed, I think students generally have problem to use examples of their lives. I believe that this kind of examples can help student learning because they see how to apply English in real life.	So, in the future, I will apply activities in which ss talk about their lives. In future lessons I will apply more speaking activities. The next time I teach this lesson, I will  make students compare things that are in the classroom.

Second Teaching Practice

Describe What I noticed in my second class was that students like to develop activities in which they really move. Also I could realized that they easily memorize phrases that are said in the class. The topic that I gave was modals (should). The environment of the class was really awesome, and the arrangement was in the horse shoe way at the beginning, but then, I divided them into groups. The material used were the board, some chart, markers, copies, and speaker.
(Analyze)		Plan Action
Interpret	Generalize
I think teaching a new topic for students (modals) is kind of difficult, and I have to adapt the activites according to the level and also the topic for developing them. Applying good and not too complicated activites for students is great, and also helps for students understanding since a complicated activity does not work well in a lower level. In addition, I might say that including kinesthetic activities is really importan.	Based on what I already know about the modal should, I presented the different ways in which the modal can be used. Based on what I observed, I think students do not have any problem when learning something new. They quickly got the idea. I believe that this helps to develop the activities planned because they understand how to apply the new pattern given.	So, in the future, I will give a good explanation about tthe topic because it is easier to work when they easily understand it. In future lessons I will take into account the space of the classroom for some activities. The next time I teach this lesson, I will make to participate the students in the grammar part more in the last time.
