I started the class by introducing myself and then I shared a beautiful relfection with them. I really liked their attitud, because they were so eager to participate!! In the warm - up activity I asked them to stand up, then we made a circle and passed a teddy bear to practice the simple present. They had fun and practiced the topic at the same time (the class I taught was just a review of the simple present) After that they had a written, a reading and a speaking activity. At the end I took 3 colored balls,and they passed them, when I said STOP they stopped passing it and 3 of them keep one ball, each color meant each form of the simple present, so the students who kept them had to create a sentence in the affirmative form, a question or a sentece in the negative form.
I really liked this experience and it was nice to see that the students want to participate and learn as much as they can, because it motivates me to prepare the class even better.
The teddy bear! Teacher Aida used to use it hehehe. Well, I am glad your experience was nice. The group seems to be participative, and it is very good because you can share any activity and they will be there for you. Reflections are always good for them because you make them think. Keep up with the good work! I am sure that you will enjoy it even more.
