HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Presenting Projekt´s first ideas

Hi everyone!!

Like the last week it said, we have to talk about a little about our projekt. So now we are going to explain you about it.
The school that we have choosen is Ondarreta Public School. This school is near San Sebastian.

Ondarreta is a public School and the reason which we have chosen it is because we think it is very interesting working in a public school and also because there are a lot of type  of students for example: portuguese, moroccan, gypsy and basque students. We have to say that the most of them have as maternal language Spanish.

On the other hand, we have to talk about the characteristic of our students. Our students are five years old and some of them are immigrant. 

The topic that we decide to teach is about family. We will work the topic about the family with the english. Also,  we introduce in our project for example: general objectives, objectives of the unit, contents, competences, activities, criteria for evaluation, methodology, differents models of education that we would aplicate in our project, and finally the parents collaboration.

Well, this is our project, but not all of it. If you want to know more you have to wait until we publish it or ask personally and we will give you more information.

 

 Have a nice long weekend!!

Role-play

Hi to all!!

The last week we started with the role-play in class and nowadays we can say that we have learnt those points to have in mind.

1. Talk in English. From our point of view, the teacher must to speak all of the time in English. That’s to not mix the English and the Basque languages. So, in the English class time the teacher has to talk in English. That’s why the teacher has to divide the normal class (Basque) and the English one (in case that there is just one teacher for both languages, like in Zerain). For it we can use some extra elements or accessories to make easier the division. For instance, wigs. 

2. The teacher must be careful with the vocabulary and the grammar forms that uses. It is necessary to keep in mind that the recipients are children.

3. We think that giving examples is the best way for teaching. For example, if we are teaching colors we can show them some color manleys.

4. When we were seeing the different role-playings, we realize the importance of patience. The teacher has to be patience to teach slowly and repeat everything more than once. Apart of this, the teacher must do signs.

5. The possibility of doing extra activities. In those role-playings we saw a big variety of different examples of activities; singing songs, painting, pointing, watching videos, going to trips, reading books… we can accurate the activities or the styles depending on the teachers interests. Also is important to star teaching from the teachers’ interests.

6. In our role-playing, we had the chance to teach to the children some extra contents that we hadn’t prepared before. But the kids started saying the colors of the crayons and we can use that moment to teach them the colors names. So, we don’t have to say what we had planned, we can afford every moment to teach English.

So, that’s what we learnt. We are waiting to see your publications

See you!

Hi to all!!

I´m Nerea and yesterday I was the journalist of the class. So now I´m going to explain you what happed in the class.

First, Natalia read us a part of a book called, THE ELEPHANT IN CHAINS. The books topyc was about if you don´t try something that you really want to do it, you will never get it. It was very interested topyc, because, we can connect it with something in our lives.
Then, Eli, Maialen, Leire and me, explain our activities about how to introduce the English in a class, but we had to use the Zerain model of education.
