Describe
When I started the class, students were very active. They really are talkative people. Then, when i developed the warm up called jump in jump out, they were having fun. I had more confidence than before. The enviroment is really good. It made me feel free. Also, the student's attitude encouraged me to not being afraid of develope the activities. After that, I explained the grammar part of "be able to" and "might." I use charts to explain them, and Igave them some extra vocabulary aside they had in the book. Then, I told them to turn the vocabulary down. Next, I asked about what they remembered of some words and they started to answer me and that was a great! Moreover, I developed the controlled activity, and they did it really fast. By the way, they really like to participate anwering the questions on the worksheets.In the free activity they had to perform a dialogue in pairs. One had to be the doctor, and the other the patient. Altough it was difficult for me to make a connection between be able to and might with medical vocabulary, students were happy of practicing their conversation.

I was happy to see the students motivated. I really like their participation because it means that they have undertood what we were studying. I made speaking activities and that helped them to put in practice the new vocabulary I gave them.
The speaking activities helped them to practice what is new for them. I could notice that those activities also help us to know if they're significant learning for them.
It´s important since students are able to speak and they need to exploit that ability. If they are good at speaking they will be able to learn vocabulary because that is what they like.
In the future, students are not going to be afraid of speaking or make mistakes. They will feel secure of what they are saying.

Based on what I already know about speaking activities, I think that they help students to express their opinions or ideas without fear .
Based on what I observed, I think students got really excited when they sspeak. They laughed and had fun.
I believe that being focus just in writting activities can hinder student
learning because the majority of them are more interested in learnig new words and put them in to practice, but if they feel bounded in just learning grammatical rules, they will feel listless of learning new things.

So, in the future, I will find an speaking activty in which students can practice some grammatical structures. They can understand better by speaking than just writting.
In future lessons I will let students to speak voluntarily and not just choosing the people that seem to be talkative.
The next time I teach this lesson, I will look an activity which match better with the topics.
In future experiences I will also include a long free activity. They can speak, but sometimes the time flies and I have to calculate it better.

Hello melissa, I really liked the warm-up you developed because you encouraged kinesthetic students to have fun. Also, It is really important when you make students to participate in speaking activities because in that moment, you get in touch with students, and you allow them to express their thoughts. You did a really nice job melissa congratulations :)
