Reflection
This lesson was the second lesson for me with the students. I noticed that it
was better than the math lesson, because in this lesson I focused more in
classroom manegment. I used the happy faces to control the students during
the lesson, and it worked. I gave happy faces to the students who raise their
hand and the students who work hard with me and showed good behaviour. I
found that all of the learners tried to be good listener and they were
brhaving nicly. Moreover, the students were having fun and learn at the same
time with the activities. Also, my MST liked the activities and she took some
pictures of it. I think, the colored sand activity helped the students to learn
how to write the adjectives, which will help them in their writing lesson with
my MST. Becuse they were rewrite the adjectives that they haved in the
cards. Furthermore, I think, that my activities helped the students to
improve their speaking, because I found that some of them were saying full
sentence and before they were using only two words to describe the animal
such as " elephant, big". However, I wasnt have enough time to sit with the
students on the carpet to reviw what they have learned through this lesson.
So, in the next lesson I will try to be more carefull about the time.
