First Class

It was the time for our group, group number 1 to start with the course; Although people might say that being the first one is difficult, I can tell that being the first one this time was rewarding because it allowed us to learn a lot of positive things that can be corrected through feedbacks.

As a group we felt that we were ready to teach but nervous can be a weapon against us; However, we were willing to face any difficulties and to overcome them as well.
In the diagnostic class we decided that classes were going to start with one song and that song was going to be used dutring the complete course.

Our welcome song is called "Hello, Hello" and we choose this song because this is a very simple and useful song since kids will like it and their attentions was going to be in the class.


I was the one in charge to start with a warm up activity which was sharks are coming and in this activity students were asked to make groups in order to complete a word that was given in flashcards with some pictures.

After the warm up Eunice continued with the pre listening stage by presenting the present continuous structure with some pictures. After that, Bryan continued with the during listening stage in which the structure was reinforced by acting the verbs. Then, in the post listening stage, we played a game involving acting and guessing with students in order for students to perform the action on the verbs. to end we did a wrap up activity.

After all the stages in our lesson, students sang the goodbye song that we have chosen, that song is called "after a while crocodile" which is a catchy song with easy lyrics and vocabulary. Students loved it.


After singing the goodbye song, students were giving a snack and the were all set to go home.


By the end of the day we got our feedback and we realized that we needed to improve our voce projection and our attitude toward students.

  1. Tomas. What was your first impression at the moment you were asked to look for an opening and closing song that would be used along the whole course? Would you do it if your were given your own group of students that are the same age as the ones you had in this class?
