Body Language Learning Reflection

711 Words3 Pages

For this lesson, I chose different teaching materials, various tasks and different activities. After I chose the text from the New Flight 2 workbook, I began to search for materials that I could use in class. I searched both at the library and on the Internet. At the library, I found a book with photocopiable materials that I could use. The book is called Intercultural Resource Pack (2004) and there I found a task on body language that was suitable for this lesson. On the Internet, I found a video, pictures, tasks and different activities that were appropriate for this topic. After I gathered all the material I needed, I started making a Prezi presentation for the lesson where I included the pictures and the video found on the Internet. These …show more content…

In order to do that, they had to write 1 for perfectly acceptable, 2 for just about acceptable and 3 for unacceptable. I explained to them what they were supposed to do, gave them a few minutes to read the task and then they had to work in pairs. After they were finished, we checked the task together by taking every statement and analyse it. I exemplified every statement on the list using my own body. The pupils were engaged and attentive. In order to involve as many pupils as possible, they were asked to raise their hand and vote if they thought the statement was acceptable, just about acceptable or unacceptable. I wrote their suggestions on the …show more content…

One of the pupils said: Dogs and cats! I was satisfied with the answer, so I moved on to the other slide, which had two photos with dogs and cats body language and a cartoon video from You tube with two cats (Simon’s cat – Double trouble, 2011). First, I explained the photos and then I played the video. In the video, the pupils could observe the cats’ body language in different situations. The pupils thought the video was funny; they were all laughing or smiling while it was playing. After the video ended, I asked them what the cats’ body language was in and what it expressed. The pupils were not quite sure what to answer so I had to reformulate some of the questions or to make them easier. After that the pupils were able to come with suggestions and own

    Then I build on that knowledge by working with the class on document A (see instructional material 1.1) then let the class work on the rest of the documents in pairs. Through this method student are shown the material, and the work is modeled for them giving students a better understanding of how to read the documents (Bruner). Allowing students to work in pairs allows for peer learning allowing students to work together, and for students who are accelerated in the class to help those who are struggling with the material (Dewey). This also me to walk around the room, and help groups who are struggling allowing for easier monitoring of progress towards the learning target. Lesson 2 starts by comparing, and contrasting FDR’s handling of Japanese Americans, and how Trump wants to handle immigrants (see instructional material 2.1).

    I also think it is important to communicate to children and young people efficiently so that they understand what you are saying to them. Also you should be available to a child or young person when they want to talk to you and should take interest. Asking questions in the classroom is a good way in which to get all the pupils involved and this way when pupils are involved and no one is left out then this will get everyone together and will start to form stronger relationships with one another. Also when you praise a student for their good work then this will make them feel good and will make them want achieve more. Furthermore it is important not to make comparisons between each student because then this will make the child feel like they are less and this will start to cause problems.

    In the classroom there’s a list of words the students will learn throughout the year, every night they would get new words and at the end of the week, they would get quizzed on a set of words. The teacher has an annotation chart that has different things that students can do. For example, if the students have a question about their reading they can put question marks next to it and more. This helps the students understand the reading much better and this also helps the teacher know the students need help with. There were many students who wouldn’t listen and would just be laughing, getting up without asking and disrupted the class during the lesson they would lose their recess,
