Another week has already gone... And I have already done 4 lessons! After the first Introductory class (which was somehow a mess, as I explained) everything has worked really fine. The day dedicated to artists was clearly interesting to students. They worked a lot without realising it: asking correct sentences: Is he recording a new album? Yes, he is... Not only speaking but they also learnt deduction strategies and student-student interaction. I had such a nice feeling when I saw them working and having fun at the same time!
On Tuesday, it was the Cook day. We warmed up by doing a "snake vocabulary" game. Each student had to say a word about food and the following one had to say the previous word and add another one... The next one, add another one... So at the end, they had to remember around 20 words! Afterwards we worked on a cake recipe, but the sweetest part was not still there. Once we finished the exercise, I brought them the real cake! They couldn't believe it! They were so surprised about the fact that I had prepared a cake for them that they even applaused me! They found it delicious and I hope that will motivate them to try and prepare the cake by themselves. I was so happy the following day, when a student brought me another recipe in English...
On Friday, it was the Sportspeople day. We worked on Wikipedia and had to use its lists to find a good sportsman/woman and prepare a mini poster about him. I have realised that on Fridays (last hour) they need an individual activity and this class is particularly good at creating (drawing, painting...)
