WEEK 17

During this week I prepared my Virtual Environment in EDMODO. I signed in as a teacher in order to get a password to invite my friends to be my students. I wrote a short introduction In the group Learning in advance. Later I created a small survey about what my students are learning English. This was the Onjective of this virtual class:

"After finishing two activities in this WEB 2.0 tool, the student will be able to communicate and express his/her ideas in discussions and give examples of real situations according to the activity with a high percent of accuracy"

Finally mu students wrote a small paragraph, and a general Culture quiz. It was nice!!!

WEEK 15


    Unfortunately, we did not have Internet connection in our new computers, but it was a very useful time to learn more about our teaching career.



     The professor was sharing her experiences with us in her past. For example teaching in highschools is a kind of difficult because teenagers are not mature to start learning but with some clues that our professor gave us we will manage some problems.

    This video is really good to get more responsability at the moment of teching:

WEEK 12

     This topic was really interesting WEB 2.0 tools, at the beginning I thought that it was really simple because we talked about Facebook, Twitter as part of these tools, but it was completely different. Web 2.0 tools are so many and we were exploring a lot of them searching great web sites, for example Edmodo, K12 lesson plans, Nicenet to create virtuals environments. There so many more to make our life easier, uploading videos, PPT presentations.

    In conclusion, It was useful because the professor also explained us how to work on our digital portfolios. I checked The installer Cuadernia, it was difficult to use because it does not permit us to save changes but we will be able to use other programs or web sites to create our portfolio.

WEEK 11

     This week I had a very good experience performing a class using my leson plan. It was really good because I was training myself for the next semester to do my innerships. It is very important to lose the fear and not show that the teacher is nervous because everuthing will be wrong besides the teacher has a perfect lesson plan.

     I was teaching about some places that my students have visited in America, they were brainstorming in a worm-up the i developed. Finally, we showed a PPT with our microteaching project. I will leave the video of the first part of my class. Enjoy it.

WEEK 10

    This week was really good because I learned how to write objectives in a lesson plan with the ABC method. The objectives are very important in writing a lesson plan because it gives clearly what students are going to be able at the end of the lesson.

     The teacher checked our lesson plan because we had to write one of them. Then she gave as feedback to improve it. The ideas that the teacher gave us were very important to develop our objectives of the class. I prepared a demo class using my lesson plan. i loved that activity.

LEARNING REFLECTIVE LOG Nº 9

It is one of the most important bases that a teacher must have because in this consists the kind of education that our students are going to receive. Another thing, our professor gave us more feedback about PPT.

     This is so good for me because i am getting more knowledge and technology is amazing we can do a lot of things.

LEARNING REFLECTIVE LOG Nº 8

WEEK 8

     In this time we studied about the four skills the receptives (Reading adn listening) and the productives (speaking and writing). We saw presentation with the explanation for each one and the process to develop lesson planns according to the necesities of the learning process. For example: Writing, Brainstorming, drafting, revising and editing.


     A lesson plan is a document to show or organize the activities that a teacher will perform in a class. It is very important for us because it will give clear specifications and let teachers present any kind of topic.
