Didactics 2

Hello everyone welcome back to my blog!! For this entry I'm covering the last two groups, 7 and 8. Fernando's group were in charge of covering just as my group, numbers and classroom objects, but they were mostly focused on their listening skills. They for the most part made like a review class of last week as most of it had been covered in a vocabulary way. They did put some audios so they had to write some numbers and the objects that were mentioned during the audio. To be honest I even learned how to say "engrapadora" lmao. In the end they asked some questions to see what the students had learned.                                . After that, we had a small break and when we came back it was the turn of Mauri's group. They began their class by having some kind of review of the classroom objects once again, although they were more focused on the reading aspect more than the vocabulary, listening or oral asp...

 Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog, this is the big one!!! Today I'm sharing with you my group's class and also the class given by group 6. I'm gonna give you an insight of what we did before the main day. Our topic was really simple, we had to review numbers and objects in the classroom, fist we got together through a zoom meeting on sunday so we could discuss what our ideas for the class were, Jonathan proposed some really interesting ideas of how we could manage the class, as he already had some previous experience taching. This became really helpful to us as we managed to develop and create our lesson plan the same day we did our meeting, of course we still had some details to take care off, but everything was mostly complete.  We prepared a canva presentation and also some worksheets for the students.  Thankfully when the day finally came, I was almost 100% healthy for this class so I didn't had any problems. Jonathan began the class by explaining the pron...

  Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog!! Today I'm going to be sharing with you about the classes given by group 3 & 4, pitifully I was not able to attend the day they imparted their classes due to sickness, but I'm still sharing what I've read from other blogs and what my classmates have told me about.  The first group of this day was Noe's group they were in charge reviewing greetings, verbs in affirmative and also a little bit of spelling, although their main focus overall was with the listening aspect. They even had two listening activities to put them to the test. Something quite funny that I've heard from them is that they played some of Chayanne while playing hot potato. ( I found that quite interesting and funny).    Here is also a pic of the group:  The fourth group was Maru's group, they were in charge of spelling and greetings as well, although they were more focused on the reading aspect. For what my classmates have told me, first they had ...

 Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog!! This blog is about September's 7th class, to which I couldn't attend due to a stomachache, I have to say that this diseases have not been playing fair with this past month, cause as of today I'm writting this blog I'm still recovering from a flu. :( Thankfully Josh told me about what this class was about, thankfully Lic Orlando only gave the grades from the first register and the feedback from the activities we had that register. Jessica was really kind to me and actually did sent me pictures of the our activity group grades and told me about the feedback Orlando gave to us.  Apart from this, we also had to make groups for our first classes with students, luckily we got group 5 and the topics we had were vocabulary related to numbers and classroom objects which I do like as I find it interesting for our first class. It might be a challenge but lets see how things turn out. Our first class is going to be on the 28th of Septem...

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog!! I hope everyone of you is doing good, for this class I'm covering what we learned on the class of the 31st of August. For this class we learned about PDP, and what is PDP?? This is a type of approach that word by word is Pre, during and post.  For the first stage (Pre), the teacher will have to give some kind of warm up to the topic without actually teaching the topic straight away, that being by asking students questions related to the topic, to check how is their knowledge related to the new topic or even showing a video about the topic in a way that just works as a small introduction. For the second stage (During) , the teacher will have to give instructions to the students to begin an activity in which they will have to use what they have learned on the first stage. The teacher must give clear instructions to the students of what they'll have to do in order to be efficient. If the instructions aren't clear the students may h...

  Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog!!  For this post I'm going to cover the first actual classes given by group 1 and 2.  The first group was Diana's, something that I really liked from them was they still could reuse their "teacher shirts" from their last activity. They began the class by giving name tags to each student so it could become easier to remember everyone's name.  This group's topics were the alphabet and some common greetings, but before they started teaching they got into a circle in which everyone had to participate to repeat the previous name that was mentioned, until the last person would say everyone's name.  This group as mentioned before focused on the alphabet and on some greetings, they did put a lot of effort into the pronunciation of each letter as well as giving an example of a word with the letter they showed on their PPT. For the greetings topic they emphasized a lot in the structure and how they could use it on a daily...
