First Period

On Friday 16^th I had my last class of the period in the advanced course.

This time I had to teach grammar, I planned the class with a practice after the grammar explanation. As a warm up, I used the famous Broken Telephone; I divided the class in three groups.  The topic they were studying was reported speech, so I gave them some quotes and they had to change them into reported speech I also tried to introduce the topic of the grammar explanation by using some commands and request because those were the topics that I had to teach. I could see that students were very participative and enjoying the activity. After the warm up I started with the grammar explanation. 

I think that when we have to teach grammar sometimes is too difficult to develop the activities you had planned because for some students is not so easy to acquire the information and at the end it takes more time. After the explanation I gave them some practice about questions in reported speech. When they finished the practice they share their answers to the rest of the class. Unfortunately time was not enough to finfish with the second grammar explanation the topic were commands and requests. But on the other hand I know these things will help me to continue improving. I can say that I really enjoyed the classes and I hoped to continue enjoy the rest of my teaching practice.
