Third Teaching ( Third period)

Describe When I started the class, I was more nervous than the previous two classes. Maybe, I was nervous because it was going to be the last one, and I had the pressure that I had to do it better. The students were seating and talking with their classmates. I asked them to stand up to develop the warm up. The environment was cool since they were really nice as always with me. I made the semi-circle because I liked to have the students closer and also, they can see the board. I used a hot to develop the warm up. I used flashcards for the presentation and worksheets for the activities. I thought comparative adjectives.

It was the last class, and I tried to do my best. I really liked to work with those students for they always helped me. I improved in the variety of activities, and I did something different. The results were great, but I want more since I still learning in each practice. I explained different adjectives because the teacher wanted me to make the students think more. I did it, and could see in their faces that they were learning. Teachers can see if the students are learning through their gestures. If they do not say or do anything is because they can be confused. I saw them taking notes, and I could notice their curiosity. If students are curious they will learn. They increase their knowledge by asking questions and being able to use their knowledge when they speak.	Based on what I already know about speaking activities, I think that students are able of “show off” their vocabulary. I could see that they used the adjectives that I gave them in a short story. Based on what I observed, I think students generally got the topic since they participated a lot in the class. Also, they were asking a lot about some meanings and I was happy because they really were interested. I believe that participation can help student learning because students are throwing away their shyness. Moreover, they are feeding their brain practicing.	So, in the future, I will relax because I felt really stressed. I had many things to do, and I felt a lot of pressure. In future lessons, I will continue using charts and creative activities because they gave me good results in this period. The next time I teach this lesson, I will work in the objective. I have to think about in which activity I can see great results. I could see awesome responses of the students in every activity. In future experiences I will also include more prepared flashcards.  I used in this last class, and I could see that they gave nice answers.

Second Teaching (Third period)

Describe I notice that students were very talkative. They really like to speak, but they do it in Spanish almost all the time. something that I understand because they are starting the major yet. They were ready to start a new class. The environment was really good because the students are very friendly I felt that they helped me a lot. I used the horse-shoe style for the classroom is very big, and I have space to move around the class. I used 3 charts. One of them was used to give grammar explanation. The other was used to show them subject pronouns and object pronouns and the last one was used as a big board game.

I felt a little bit nervous because of the grammar explanation, I prepared myself for this second class, and I prepared good activities. I didn't give grammar since the second class of the second period in intermediate II. I think that is why I felt a little bit nervous. I felt satisfaction when all of them could do the practices. They gave me great answers. I think the response that students give in the class is very important because most of the time you can notice if you did a good job. If they look like they don't know you notice it, but if you see that they are very focus and working in the exercise, you know that you did a great job. Student need to practice.Therefore, they have to practice what is new for them. In that way, they will have new vocabulary when they speak and write.	Based on what I already know about variety of activities, I think it's very essencial since students can practice in different ways. If a teacher just focus in doing controlled practices students will be bored easily. Based on what I observed, I think students generally got my explanation. I could see that their answers were the ones that I was expecting, and I felt very happy for that. They were focus in the activities, and they did it in a really nice way. I believe that variety of activities can help student learning because as I wrote before, if they are just sitting and writting, they get bored easily. However, if they do an interactive activity, they enjoy what they are doing.	So, in the future, I will explain the grammar part step by step. In future lessons I will present any topic with colorful charts. That calls students attention. colorful charts can help you  in order to keep students interest. The next time I teach this lesson, I will do  more kinesthetic activities. They love being busy moving around the classroom. In future experiences I will also include games in which they can learn and have fun at the same time.

First teaching Third Period

Describe At the beginning of the class, students were looking at me, and I felt a little bit nervous for being my first time. I introduced myself and I gave them some pieces of colorful papers to write their names. I really like the environment. Basic students are amazing since they like to participate and also, they are very friendly. They made me feel very comfortable in the classroom. I used the horse-shoe style because the classroom is very big and they are twenty-one students. I had to do a review so I used a colorful chart in order to review simple past. Moreover, I used worksheets and board games.

I made a review about the use of “Did” and simple past. I had to prepare since I had to include positive/ negative sentences and question form. I looked for activities in which they could practice what they already knew. I made them to practice a lot about the topic. They could resolve the exercises. This is important because I could realize that they can structure positive/negative sentences and make questions. They did not have problems doing the exercises. Controlled, semi-controlled and free practice help students to put in practice what they have learned in previous classes. Also, teachers can see when students are happy doing the practice. It is because they see that now, it’s easy for them.	Based on what I already know about self-confidence, I think that when students see that the teacher is not sure about what she/he is teaching, they have the same feeling. That’s why I prepared myself for giving the class. Based on what I observed, I think students generally liked the class they were laughing, practicing, and participating all the time. I believe that self-confidence can help student learning because they see that the teacher is prepared and that self-confidence is transmitted. They trust on the teacher and feel confidence in asking their doubts.	So, in the future, I will prepare myself in each class because it is very important and essential. In future lessons I will look for listening activities. I could see that they enjoy songs. The next time I teach this lesson, I will give more time for free activities. I could use one in this class, but they had a quiz and that’s why I had to finish early. In future experiences I will also include readings. It is very important since they can find or learn a variety of vocabulary.
