OCTOBER, 28th.

Today has been the last day of class before starting our practicum. We have finished the presentations in groups. The first group has been talking about routines and we have been practicing some routines which teachers usually do in their lessons.

Then have been our turn. We have done our presentation about festivals. With this topic we can teach the culture of a country or a city while we have a good time practicing different activities. In our case, we have chosen three festivals: Saint Patrick's day, Easter and Bonfire Night and we have planned one activity for each festival.  

First of all, we have chosen a song about the Leprechaun and to do this activity we have tought first the lyrics and then we have introduced the music and the dance. 

For Easter's we have done the search of the Easter's eggs where the student had to help the Easter's Bunny to find his eggs which were hidden around the University. 

And to finish, we have told a story about Bonfire Night to introduce the last activity which consisted in drawing their own bonfire night with special crayons.

What I have learnt today? Today I have learnt some activities that we can use to or not to carry on the routines in our future lessons.

For me, this lesson has been very funny because I was really happy looking how my classmates were enjoying the different activities that we have prepared for them. It is really nice and satisfaying when your work  and dedication are valued by your classmates, teachers, friends, family...

Right there you can see some photos that I have taken while my classmates where doing the last activity and also about some materials we have prepared for the presentation:
