First Teaching Second Period

Now in this second period I had to teach the basic section; at the beginning I was a Little worried because they are students who are just starting and you have to adapt to their level. The first topic I had to teach was the use of “some” and “any” for countable an uncountable nouns. The topic was very nice because you have many different ways to teach this, so I went there to the class and started the group with a warm up in which I wrote some letters of the alphabet on the board and the students had to go and write the fruits or vegetables they found and fit for every letter; they really liked the activity because they were challenging each other, and I decided that they had to write fruits because food was also a secondary topic for the lesson. After that turned to explain the use of “some” for countable and uncountable nouns in the affirmative and interrogative form and then the use of “any” for countable and uncountable nouns in the negative and interrogative form; just to check if they did understand the grammar point I explained I passed a completion exercise in which they had to write “some” or “any” and most of them did it correctly. Almost at the end of the class the students had to stand up and interview two of their classmates about all the food they had in their fridges, but they were asked to use “some”, “any” or even “there is” and “there are” which they previously saw. At the end of the class the students were asked to perform a role play in which they had to order something in a restaurant. During all the class students had some doubts with some words so after every activity I tried to explain all the new words and meanings. I felt satisfied with the class, but I knew that I can improve it so I will do my best in the next one because there were some aspects in which I failed like having an specific objective for the class.
