Materials and resources: shapes flashcards – video - computer.
Pedagogical use of ICT in class: In this lesson, a video will be used to support the exposure of the students to the teaching point. Students will be able to use the vocabulary learnt the previous class and learn the new vocabulary words through this video. I will play the video from the computer, as the institution does not have a TV or projector to show videos. The English teacher always uses her computer to show videos to the kids. I will also take the video in a pen drive in case technology does not work.
Seating arrangement: Students will be sitting in a semi circle on the floor board in order to facilitate visual contact and interaction with the teacher and classmates.
• Cooperative work: as learners are still very young, they can play together as they will do in this class, but they are still not aware of their classmates’ feelings or thoughts, so it is difficult to carry out cooperative work activities.
Possible problems / difficulties and their possible solutions during the class:
Instituto de Formación Docente Continua Lenguas Vivas Bariloche
- Students may have problems to understand some instructions or games or that
they cannot understand what the teacher says. I will paraphrase the instruction using
gestures and mimic.
- Students may get too excited. I will provide support.
- Some students may misbehave in class. I will talk to them and try to see why they
behave in that way, trying to calm them down.
- Some students may not accept to participate in games. I will tell them that they
will have fun if they participate, but I will not insist if they do not like to play.
Potential problems students may have with the language:
- Students may not understand a question, so I will guide them pointing to pictures
and modelling the answer first.
- Some students may have problems to pronounce certain words or sounds. I will
ask them to repeat the words several times and to listen carefully to the way I
pronounce them (how I use my lips, teeth or tongue).
Assessment: I will check that students comprehend and identify the different
school objects, adjectives and shapes by listening to them say the words or perform
an action with the word involved.
