Week 7

It is week 7 and today during we had a test.Hence,there was no teaching in class but I am going to tell you about my progress for my assignment.So far I think I am making a lot of progress.I had done three lessons plans.Two single period lesson plans and one double period lesson plan.For my first lesson plan,I am going to teach my students about the various types of foods but not those ordinary foods that they often hear about on a daily basis like chicken or potatoes.That is way to simple.I am going to ask them to sit for a spelling test about the different kinds of food and I will make sure I find words that people often misspell or words that are not often heard of like parsley or coriander.I also decided to add videos from famous Youtubers like the Fine Brothers to get my students attention.For my second lesson plan,I have decided to teach about the difference between British English and American English.This is because I notice my friends usually get confused with the two and use them interchangeably.We used to live under the British ruling.So,I think it is best we use British English.

Obviously you cannot learn something without applying it.Hence,I will have tests in my lesson plans or exercises.For my third lesson plan,I have decided to design a class whereby students are to watch an inspiring video about Nick Vujicic about this spirit of never giving up.I want my future students to think critically and creatively jus like how I was taught in youth ministry.I believe that active learning if much more effective as compared to passive learning.To video I am going to show them is down below.

.I followed the example given my the course leader for my lesson plan and thank God she has given us multiple examples or else I would be absolutely lost.I have selected my lesson plan about the various foods to be taught during my micro teaching next week.I am going to show them the videos below to make the class more interesting.Here,you can watch them too.I think you will find them entertaining and you will learn a thing or two.

Will update you bloggers on my micro teaching.Till then and wish me luck.
