FIRST ENTRY SECOND PERIOD

TEACHER: LUPITA TOBAR (TEACHER OVIDIO'S GROUP)
CLASS:  16 STUDENTS 
LEVEL: INTERMEDIATE ENGLISH I 
SECTION: "C" 

HELLO! EVERYONE, I HOPE YOU ARE DOING OK... THIS MY FIRST ENTRY FOR THIS PERIOD AND LET ME TELL YOU THAT MY FIRST CLASS WAS NOT PERFECT WE ALWAYS HAVE SOME PROBLEMS, BUT FOR THE REST IT WAS SO NICE... AND YOU WILL SEE WHY. 


 FIRST LET ME TELL YOU THAT I ARRIVED TO THE CLASSROOM ON TIME, THEN I STARTED TO PREPARE THE CLASSROOM, I ORGANIZED THE SITTINGS IN A SEMI-CIRCLE SHAPE AFTER I START TO PREPARE THE MATERIAL THAT I WOULD USE FOR THE CLASS. 
IT IS VERY GOOD TO ARRIVE ON TIME BECAUSE YOU CAN PREPARE EVERYTHING BEFORE THE STUDENTS COME TO CLASSROOM. 

AS A WARM UP I DEVELOPED THE GAME CALLED PASS THE BALL, I LIKE THIS GAME BECAUSE WE CAN USE IT IN DIFFERENT WAYS AND WITH DIFFERENT TOPICS. 
THAT DAY, I USED IT AS REVIEWED OF THE PREVIOUS TOPIC. I ASKED THEM SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TOPIC AND DIFFERENT TASKS THEY HAD TO DEVELOP. 
AFTER THAT, I EXPLAINED THE GRAMMAR, AND NOW I KNOW THAT WAS AN ERROR BECAUSE  I DIDN'T DO ANY PRESENTATION ABOUT THE TOPIC: "INFINITIVES AND GERUNDS". 
THE MOST IRONIC PART OF THIS IS THAT I HAD PREPARED A SONG FOR THE PRESENTATION, BUT I DIDN'T DO IT BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT TIME IT WAS NOT ENOUGH TO EXPLAIN ALL THE GRAMMAR NOTES. 
ANYWAYS, I CONTINUED WITH THE CLASS AND I EXPLAINED THE GRAMMAR THEN I DEVELOPED A CONTROLLED PRACTICE.
AND THAT WAS ALL...

THIS SITUATION LEFT ME A GREAT LESSON THAT WAS "A PRESENTATION  IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE CLASS WHEN WE HAVE TO STARTED A NEW TOPIC BECAUSE IT IS LIKE AN INTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC.
