Reflection: at 27/2/2017

I think warm up was good , when I put note paper to do interview for pervious lesson , the
students made sentence for each words I put it .in activity new vocabulary , I use some way to teach
them . It depends on words. Some of them I did on PowerPoint by using pictures and sentences. Some
of them I did by material. (New an eraser and old an eraser), I made cheep of paper for made word. I use
polystyrene material contains graft, tigers and trees to trapped word .I did variety activity to make
students attention and understand meaning the word very clear.in listening activity ,I did model pre
,while ,post listening to give student enough instructions and explain the listening very well. I played
audio twice to help them got answer. I got answered from them. I checked answer and I saw most of
students raise their hand.in the last activity, the student were able to write sentence using new
vocabulary. However, the issue was in management time. I started after 10 of the session because of the
school queue .Ms LaTonya told me dont do lesson in first session.
4 note papers have words of vocabulary. (Sharp teeth, dinosaur, tail, horn) on the
board which they learnt in previous lesson
