DAYS OF THE WEEK
Vocabulary: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Grammar: What day is today?
This was the first class of our third period. My
classmates Monica, Gisselt and Cristela were the teacher. They gave us some
ideas of how handle with children and what activities works.
The class started at 1.15 but they asked to the children
to go to the bath before to begin the class, in order to teach them the rules
of the class.
After that, my classmate
introduced the welcome song to children in a very good and different way. She
did a line and students will follow the song and walk according some pictures
that the wall. For example, If the song said Sad, student will look for sad
picture and walk doing the line and so on.
These are the material that they were using, I love
that they took the time to decorate and do some different games that we do not
use usually. .For example, in this activity, My classmate Monica
made a roulette in order to chose a topic to ask question. The roulette was
divided in Family members, Numbers, colors and so on. After she chose the topic
she had some question and students will try to be the first one in say the
answer. This activity motivated student
to participated, also was different game and they are adapting to new games in
order learn or express what they think..
Then, students sat down and pasted different color-train.
They had fun and internalized about colors and days of the week. What I learned
here is that even was a very good activity, teacher has to pay the attention to
students in order to do not lose the classroom control. Gisselt kept the
control all the time.

The second part of the class was taught by Gisselt.
She did a calendar in the whiteboard. This was a very good idea because
students could practice the numbers, days of the week and colors.
Then, students sat down and pasted different color-train.

Third and not less important part of the class was
taught by Cristela. She had a very good time relaxing to the child. They were
in the floor. Cristela did a very good dynamic in which children closed their
eyes while Cristela moved some days of the week, Then, students would guest what
was next. For example, the first day they will see Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday. After they opened their eyes, they would see Monday, Thursday and
Friday.
En general, how do you evaluate the class? Was it effective or not? If you observed a particular behavior in one of the students, tell us how would you support it with the theory you have studied in previous courses?
