First Entry Second Period (Advanced Students)

Second Period

This second period I am again with one of the groups of advanced students. As always, I started by greeting them and mentioning what I expect from them during these three classes that I am going to be teaching. After it, it was time to start the class. As they were studying phrasal verbs, the future perfect continuous and the future continuous in previous classes, the teacher asked me to develop a warm up related to it so that during the warm up I divided the class in two groups.   I explained that I was going to tell them a phrasal verb and one of the two tenses they were studying and then they had to use that to write a complete and logical sentence on the board.  During the feedback the teacher told me that the activity was nice the only things was that I had to be more careful with the organization because not all the students participated.

 After the warm up, I wrote on the board the word “CHALLENGE” and then I asked students to come up with ideas about it. Later on, I addressed students to read an article from the students’ book and when they finished reading, I formed pairs in order to develop some activities related to it, but I think that I gave them too much time to solve them because at the end, I could not finish to check the last activity.
