Lesson six

We consider Juan’s lesson was very interesting since he was the first one who  taught  alone, and he was teaching chunks, which is something very difficult for the reason that children are not used to form sentences in English, although they were very simple sentences, they represented a big challenge for the Ss. Also, What we could notice during the class was that  Ss got confused with some of the activities, they simply did not know what to do, and  that was probably, because at that time they were not studying words in isolation, but chunks, and also because there was not enough time for the teacher to practice more with the students. However; teacher tried his best in order to make students participate in class, and they participated very well, actually. As in the case of Hector, he was repeating what the teacher asked them to repeat. We now believed that with more time to  practice and with activities that call their attention,  Ss will be able to say some chunks such as, ’my name is…’’.
