LAST!!! VERY LAST!!! :D

Well, this was my last class in the period and in the semester ☺ *claps*. Some of you will have the last one this week and some others had it already. Well, we are finishing this course, and we are finishing our major! What we all want is to rest a little bit, I know that for sure hahaha.

In this time, I prepared some activities to make them think and express themselves. I started the class with the tale-teller warm-up. I really like this warm-up because they feel free to write without caring so much about grammar or composition. They can feel inspired to write only. Well, I had them in three groups to write about any topic during 6 minutes. Well, I had them read their stories, one per group. I moved on to the next part which was about a little debate to develop critical thinking. The topic was about modals, so I asked them what we should do to protect our planet. Some of them answered and participated. With this question, I started the PDP that I had prepared. After that, I played a video that showed part of the nature and some sad parts of what we do to our planet. Most of them were touched by the scenes in the video, and I finally gave them some questions to answer using the modals. They did it very well and shared their responses with the entire class. My last activity was a roleplay. I had them read and prepare for 10 minutes, which were enough for them. Unfortunately, my time was not long enough to make them all participate, so I asked only one group to perform it. They did it well although they had some pronunciation problems.

At the end, I said goodbye to them and wished them the best in the major. So, this is how I conclude my teaching practicum :D. I wait for your comments ;).

Second practice, third period

Well, this class was very nice. I felt more confident, and I knew what to do, so it was great for me!

To start the class, I had them in two lines face to face. The warm-up was emotional mirrors, and I asked them to talk about their plans for the weekend. The topic they studied was the future forms using "going to" and present progressive. They enjoyed it because I asked them to perform many moods like: Angry, sad, happy, etc.

After the warm-up, I said the objective which was to practice the future forms through some fill in the blanks activities and some dialogues. I gave away the pieces of paper so that they could work on that. They fulfilled the task, and later, I had them work in pairs, but this time, I paired them up to include them all so that they work with the other people. I had them fill the blanks in a dialogue. Then, I asked them to come to the front and to perform it. In this way, they could practice more speaking.

Finally, I had them all performing the dialogue. It was a nice experience, and I am sure that they had fun as I did too.
