First is doing demonstration with using pictures. After that, we practiced pronunciation. But we had a mistake. We forgot explaining the structure! It' s a big mistake.
Second is playing gesture game. I think it is very interesting game for students. Though it took too much time to explain the game, everyone enjoyed it!
○Strength Point
・Pictures are easy to understand⇒We used our pictures, so the students feel interesting
・The game is a lot of fun
・Every student could speak target sentence in the game
・Practice pronunciation is enough
・For seventh grades, the class is easy to accept
○Weakness Point
・We didn' t teach its structure
⇒We only thought out enjoying the class, not structure
・It took much time to explain how to play the game
・We didn' t support the students well
⇒Both of us didn' t help the students who couldn' t understand
・Lack of practice
⇒Students would do better to write
・We didn' t confirm that the students could understand
・We were not good to distribute time
Through this micro teaching, I learned that teaching English is very difficult. We need more consideration for students who are poor at English, and think about not only enjoyment but also practical English.
What do you think about our micro teaching? Please give me many advices.
