CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES

all the good activities are those ones that works according with the differents skills´ abilities, example I plann to my Ss a speaking activity called conversation club, and I have many different ones depending on the skill, then, the idea is to work directly on activities in which Ss are going to develop their language and also show a progress through different contexts during this acquisition process.
next I´ll name different class activities that I usually use with my kids
  • movie time (I apply all the language skills here, and you don´t have to watch all the movie, instead just a little piece and then give them some questions related with the movie´s context. they love it!)
  • show and tell (speaking, reading, writing. They have to look for something important for them, bring it to the class and then talk about it)
  • song club ( listening, reading. They must fill in the blanks, organize sentences in order write the hole paragraph, etc.. by listening)
  • reading time (this is to improve their reading comprehension which is very important fot them)
  • role play ( they have to create a story or dialogue and then perform)
  • and many more, the list is too long but those are important ones.

You're full of ideas, Carol! I'm sure your Ss enjoy your classes, as we saw in your last presentation.
