I was assigned to one of the groups of the Saturdays Program that Don Bosco University have. This program takes place at the University and it is devoted to teenagers. I share this group with another classmate, his name is Herber, and we are T. As (Teacher Assistants).We will be supervised by a Mentor Teacher from Don Bosco University his name is Alex Canizalez.
When we arrived, students were wonder about who we are? And what are we doing into the classroom? So, the teacher explained to them that we will spend the 10 weeks of the curse with them, and we proceed to introduce ourselves.
Activity #1
The teacher started to give instructions to the students, he said that they had to make a list on ten verbs into the present tense and they only will have 2 minutes to complete it, they were working in groups in order to make the list. Then, students make two lines in front of the board ant they were required to write the past participle that the teacher will say (The verbs were taken from the list that each group made).
Activity #2: Grammar and fragment of a movie.
The teacher gave to the students a worksheet. The teacher told to students that they have to read the worksheet in order to check the vocabulary. In this part, the teacher asked to Herber and me to help him with the vocabulary, if students had a doubt with a word, we will explain it the meaning of it.
After the vocabulary was explained and students got involved in it, the teacher played a fragment of the movie “Indiana Jones” in order that students answer the questions on the worksheet. Before students star to answer the questions, teacher modeled how they have to answer the questions into the “Simple Past Passive” that was the grammar structure for the unit that they were studying.
Activity #3 Hypothetical Situations
After the break, the teacher presented a hypothetical situation to the students and asked them why they would do if they were in that situation? Students were laughing about the situation and thinking about what they would do. The teacher wrote all the answer on the board. Also, after write students answers teacher explain the structure for the use of “Second Conditional”. Then, students played a game “The Dating Game” in which they applied the Second Conditional by asking and answer questions about hypothetical situations in order to find they perfect “match”.
Hi my collegue Adonay, I was reading your last post and I really like everything you share. I think your Mentor Teacher is going to help you a lot . As I could see, this is like an intermediate level, so for that reason the activities are more complex, I could see that you are enjoying the class with the students and your mentor.
ReplyDeleteI hope this can help you a lot when you become a teacher.
