"Love what you do if you want to do well." (I am the author :P )
Well, my class was very nice. I did enjoy this class more than the others I taught. I am not sure if it was because it was the last one this period or what, but I enjoyed it so much. I started the class by reviewing the countable and uncountable nouns by using some flashcards bearing images of food. With that warm up, I practiced with the speaking skill because besides asking them if it was countable or not, I asked them to use a quantifier with the noun. They did very well.
Secondly, I gave them a piece of paper with some sentences in which they had to rewrite the wrong ones, and if the sentence was ok, they had to write a C. The activity lasted for 10 minutes because we checked the answers. I heard some words that they pronounced wrong, and I told them the right way :). I could see that they understood the topic that my classmate explained, and it was very nice. The third activity I applied was a reading comprehension in which they had to underline the correct word between parenthesis. It took 10 minutes too because we checked the answers and read the paragraph. At the end, my last activity was a song, which is the one that you are listening to in this blog. I gave them a piece of paper with the lyrics of the song, but I deleted some nouns that they had to fill when listening to the song. I played it three times so that they could check and tell me if the nouns were countable or uncountable. They liked the song, and all the girls were singing it! The boys did not sing it exactly, they just moved their lips to sing as if they were ashamed of singing that song hahahaha.
Anyways, I enjoyed the class because I applied the four macro skills with different activities, and it is a very good way to vary the activities. I really enjoyed the class, and I was glad to see that the students liked the activities. I can see a great potential in all of them. Now, I just way for your comments.
