Activities in the classroom

Imagen
Ladies and Gentlemen welcome back to my blog! 🙌👀 This week we had face-to-face classes and had a brief review on the topics covered last week. Teacher Orlando provided us with examples of activities for measuring time⏲ and grouping students👫 in the classroom. The class was focused on enhancing classroom dynamics to keep students engaged and prevent them from falling asleep.  We know that sometimes theory classes can be boring😴 so as teachers we have to be very dynamic and do physical activities so that they are not all the time sitting. Well, we can use different objects to make sounds for classroom dynamics, for example recycled materials like putting rocks in a can🥫 and with that being able to make sounds.  One activity that we can do to group students is that bringing color blocks “Legos” and give one to each student at the beginning of the class so that when it is time to do a group activity, those with the same color Lego will have to work together.  A measuring...

Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to my blog!! 👋👀 Is nice to be back once again. This week was a little bit different since we didn’t go to the University because of its anniversary, that means that we worked virtually, and teacher Orlando gave us a Lesson planning of what we were supposed to do for that class. Something curious about is that one of the topics for this week was Lesson Plannin g, I don’t know why, but I found it funny haha😅! Also, we study  ICQ  &  CCQ  a topic that I had never heard about🙊, but thanks to teacher Orlando I was able to understand what each one of them was😌; and I’m going to talk about of them in the next paragraphs of this blog. I found Lesson Planning📑 very interesting because it really impressed me that teaching is not only teaching but it is also something that involves a lot of things that can help us to achieve our objectives as teachers within the class. Lesson Planning is something important since it can help us to bas...

(Of course that I'm going to be using my distinguished greeting💁😉). Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to my blog for the new subject English Didactics II!👋👀 It is a pleasure to be back once again on this blog. We are almost at the end of the major and I'm worried and excited at the same time. But come with me and join me during this last semester in English Didactics II. We had a diagnostic test in our first class. I did pretty bad because it was about theories of language/learning and I didn't remember anything about that. However, I got all of the teaching methods correct because it was a topic that we learned in the last semester haha😅. Then we watched some videos and with the information from the videos we answered the test with all of my classmates. As I said... I did pretty bad, but at least I got 6 points hahaha😂 Also, I'm a little bit nervous about this subject because teacher Orlando told us that we are going to be teaching real students and that we need to br...
