My second class with the intermediate group!

My second class with the intermediate students was not what I expected. I could not finish on time and I had some problems with the material for the class, but at the end I can say that it was another experience added to my practice. As always I started the class by greeting the students. Then, I divided the class into two groups to work in the warm up activity. The last class they were studying “the passive voice” so during the activity I was going to read a sentence in “the active voice”. When finished to read the sentence one member per group was going to look for the right form of the structure in a series of sentences that were pasted randomly on the board. This task had to be done at the same time so the first one in getting the correct sentence had the point and so on until getting the last sentence on the board. In order to see if they had understood the passive voice structure during the last class and to make the activity a little more difficult, I added some sentences that were not in the correct form. At the beginning they did not realize it, but then they did it really well. After it, I could notice some of them still had problems with the structure so I made a short review and asked them some questions about the topic. Then they had more practice but I could not finish the last activity because of the time. To summarize, I can say that it was a nice class, and the only bad thing was that I continue having problems to set the time for every activity.
