I'd like to share my last English course experience with you. It was a course which aims to hone students four skills especially listening skills and socialize students through pair work.
I started the course by asking the questions below:
- Have you had any good or bad news from anyone?
- When did it happen?
- How did you feel when you heard it?
I told the students they are going
to hear a telephone conversation between an
American man and woman. I also told them to put
their pens down and simply listen. When students are ready, I played the
recording. I asked the students to call out all the names they could remember and
wrote them on the board. I asked the questions below:
- What is the relationship between Kevin and Anne?
- Who is Dennis?
- Who are Becky and Kate?
I told the students she would going
to play the recording again. Additionally, I explained they were supposed to note down what
news Anne gave about Dennis, Becky and Kate. I also reminded them to note
Kevin’s news. I wrote Dennis, Becky, Kate and Kevin on the board.
After listening to the recording again, I wrote those people’s news
under the names of name with the regard of the students’ answers. I asked students whether they could remember
when each of these things had happened. When I couldn't hear answers I told the
students she would play the recording once more and they were supposed to shout “Stop!” when
they heard when each thing had happened. I played the recording, stopped whenever the
students called out “Stop”. I handed out a worksheet including
‘True/False’ questions and gave time them to answer them. After that, I heard their answers.
It was my last lesson and everything was great. I will miss so much these sweet students in Vefa high school!
I hope you like my activities in this last course. Please, remember to comment on my blog.
Sincere regards :)
