Third Period

 My second class

On Thursday 31^st I had my second class.

This time I only had to develop some practice about the use of past modals. In this opportunity most of the students were on time so I could start the class with almost all students. For the warm up activity I gave them some pieces of paper in which they had to complete the following sentence ´´ I need some advice because….´´ and they could write a problem: for example; ´´I need some advice because I took my mother’s car without her permission and I crashed it´´.

So as they were studying past modals they had to give a response using any of the past modals, they could answer. You shouldn’t have taken the car or You should have asked for permission. After they wrote the complete sentence I asked them to work in pairs in order to share their situations and their responses. For the a second activity they continued working in pairs, I wrote some responses on the board and I gave them some sentences so they had to choose the best response according to each situation. After they finished I asked them to share their answers with the whole class and finally they wrote their responses on their notebooks.  For the next practice I asked them to create some questions using ´´Could Have´´ I gave them some phrases or words and also I used some flashcards to provide those words and they had to use them to create the questions. After they create the questions they had to write them on their notebooks. As a last activity I gave them some sentences and they had to create a response using past modals for each of them when they finished they share their responses with a classmate and then with the whole class.
