SECOND CLASS TEACHED 


My experience this second time was too much better, students get better the idea and learned more. this time my classmate and I teached "animals" students knew some animals and that made the class easier. I introduce the topic and correct some pronunciation mistakes with them; to break the ice I made a dynamic singing a song with them the activity was nice they love to sing and enjoyed it, what I know I could better for next time is to make the activaty more dynamic like making the mimics with them in order to make it funnier. Children love to singing and making the mimics wil be like a game for them so they get learn easier.


The rest of my class I considered that was good of course there are some other aspects that I need to better for example my tone of voice that some times is not louder enough to catch m students attention, also that I need to use more my space, move around the classroom and not to be just in one side of it to have a complete control of my class.


Besides the aspects that I mentioned as a teacher we alway need to keep on mind that we need to adapt ourselves to our class because this will hlpe us to understand our students behaviour and ways to teach them, and this is waht we are being oserved in every class we teached. Next calss of course will be better I will put into parctice my teachers and classmates advices and learn from my mistakes, correct all the mistakes I had made until now and apply this experience to improve my performance in my next class.

MY FIRST CLASS


My first day teaching was mot what expected, I tought "PRONOUNS".
There were some aspects in which I know I can be better. At the begining of my lesson the students were making a lot of noise, also they were very excited like they want to playing out or something like that, I did not know what to do, so I made a shh sound in order to they got the idea that I need them to be quite and paying attention. I know that is something is not appropiate to do, so next time I need to prepare a dynamic to make them calm if they are making noise.

Another thing that I know I can better is my tone of voice, because for kids I need to speak a little bit loud in order to catch thier attention and let them know that I am the teacher. Besides that we need to prepare more activyties for the class, because we prepared some but at the end we can not do it because they were so destractive to make them, so we repeat the same activity  of repeat the pronuns that we had in some flash cards that were showed to them. I extend the time making them repeat the same activity and at the end, because I skiped some activities that were planned I improvised and I made them copy the pronuns on their notebooks in order to keep them busy and calm.

But all those troubles that I had when I was teaching I can not say that were tottaly bad, because all what happened tought me what I can not do I what kind of activities we need to mae with them, all this mistakes that I made will not happen again in my next calss. I love children and worked with them and also and the most important I love to teach.

OBSERVATION CLASS 



My experince at observating class was very useful. Observating my classmates class, I realized how important is to play attention at students behaviour in order to planning dinamics for them.

one of the positives things that observed was that my classmates had everything organized and they speaked loudly and clearly to the students, when a teacher speaks with a good tone of voice, students know who has the authority in that the teacher is the one who knows.

Another thing that I liked about my classmates class, was the materials that they used, they used creative things like posters with many colors and this catch students attention because they love colors, so if something is atractived to them they play attention.




Talking about the things that I think could be better, I think that weneed to play attention at the time to choose songs, because if we coosed a song needs to be an easy song that they can uderstand and follow. in this case I think that the alphabet ong was not the best one, because the song was very fast and they could not follow the song. besides that te activity in which they need to invented a new song using the alphabet was a little bit difficult to them because they had problems to get the idea about what they need to do.



Another aspect that i observed that needs to be better, is t keep the control of the class all the time, when was the second teacher turn the students started to loose theb class attetion, they starting to do what they wanted and the the teacher focused on the ones that were playing attention only, ingnoring the rest behaviour. what we as a techers needs to fcused is on the ones that are not playing attention in order to keep the whole class under control and everybody reach the goal at the end of the class.
