My last class
Well, this was my last class of the year. I was really
excited because I was about to finish my Teaching Practicum II, but at the same time, I felt
sad because every class means an opportunity to learn.
I started the class with “the freeze game.” I used it
with the purpose of having fun and reviewing the topic. The students had been
studying the use of “have to, should, could and must,” so I tried to review a
little bit because there were some doubts about the grammar. After that review,
we were about to practice. The first activity was a fill in the blanks. Then, the students created their own English school with their own rules. The activity was
amazing because some of them said things like these ones: “In our school,
students have to have boyfriend or girlfriend,” “In our school, students mustn’t
have notebooks,” etc. The activity was suitable to practice the grammar into discussion.
The last activity was “find the partner.” In that
activity, the students had to find the pictures that were the same and create
sentences with them. It was like a little
competence that helped the students to practice the studied topics and to work as a
group.
This experience has been fruitful for me because there are things that can be learnt just through practice. Thanks Lord!
