The other side of the coin

This lesson was quite different, because the children talked from the very beginning of the lesson and they were not interested at all in English.

The first procedure of the lesson was to write the date on the blackboard and Núria ask for the students’ help to do this. I think that is a good procedure to learn it.

This lesson was also focused on a gramar topic: the plural. Firstly, the teacher read aloud the theory that was written in Catalan and afterwards, the students had to do some exercises.

On the other hand, I would like to reflect about the language that is used in the classroom. I think that the best for the children is that the teacher speaks in English from beginning until the end of the lesson, but I’m not really sure if the students are able to understand the grammar if it is explained in English. Maybe we would need more time to explain it, but if we do it every day I think that children could get used of it and it would have been worth.
