Shop activity 2°

 


In this class, I prepared a program for practicing "May I" and some other prendas like sneakers, pants, shorts, jacket, watch, bracelet. 

In the program, students practiced the dialogue:

This ______ is so ______.
May I try ___ on?

I think its a good activity because the students could practice on their own without feeling shy. They just practiced with their computers. Although for some of them, it got a bit frustrating because the program couldnt understand what they were saying. On the other part, they feel quite accomplished when it finally recognised their pronunciation. Well, its a given that its not a phoneme level checker, but I think the value is that they could practise without feeling nervous because its just them and their computer. What I did to reinforce the activity was to go around helping them individually in the things they found challenging. Of course it was difficult to attend to everybody but I think it kind of helped. This is the first time I actually had them mimic my mouth and tongue placement to be able to pronounce some of the sounds like th hard and soft, and the l and the r. It was challenging but i think some of them were able to do it. Which is good.

  I had been working all afternoon yesterday on this, since last week the teachers had asked me for ideas on how to use ICT in the class. So I figured maybe I could use genially to teach the past tense. My initial idea was to prepare the template, using the book Little People Big dreams, Stephen Hawking and prepare two slides for each team. They would need to identify the verbs, then turn it to the past tense. That didnt happen because it turned out more complicated than I had imagined. The first class honestly was kind of a disaster. Anyway, we did end up using vocaroo for the recording and pronunciation practice.  After first period, I had to revise and do it all again. Initially i did everything on genially but had a problem because i thought i could easily add audio to genially, no. You have to have a paid account, or do it in a more roundabout way. Then I did it on google slides. Using https://luvvoice.com/ i recorded the text, and redid the slides on google slides. ...

after the long weekend

This morning I saw Eri at the gate greeting the students. I wheeled in with my bike and passed by her greeting her good morning. I wanted to stay there to greet the students too but I decided against it since I wanted the vice principal to see that I arrived on time. After greeting the vp, I went back down to greet the students. Towa was there as well, he's the intern whos going to be here only until next week.
