English Teaching Methodologies 2009 Blog

Thank you for taking our class!!
We wanted to do various activities to keep students busy.

(1)Introduction about Mr.Michio
We showed him and the picture taken by him. If we showed only him, maybe students couldn’t understand his job. So, we showed two pictures. We’d like to have them guess his job. And I wanted them to see beautiful picture.
(2)並び替え
We changed turn of 5 sentences. We took extra time to make groups. It was a pity.
(3)Reading sentences as looking at pictures
sentence by sentence
(4)Practice of reading(games)
We chose 指名game and janken game from Mr.Kanno’s suggestion and Interesting Link. I thought games were interesting, but I couldn’t explain well. I should try to explain in plain English.
(5)Group work
We discussed about points to read, and practiced reading in each groups. It was better to use English in groups. I should have students use English a lot. I want some advice to improve this.
