Methods to Prepare a Class

-

 

Hello everyone, and welcome to the blog!

 I wanted to update you all on a recent development—unfortunately, I’ve been under the weather with bronchitis this week and had to miss school. However, I’m grateful for the support of my classmates, who generously shared their notes with me. Their kindness has helped me stay on track with our class topics despite being bedridden.


 This week, they learned methods for preparing a class by breaking it down into time, scenario, procedure, and details. Templates were introduced to facilitate organization and planning.

The Fundamental Teaching Framework 

The Fundamental Teaching Framework consists of two key areas: PPP (Presentation, Practice, Production), which improves productive skills such as writing and speaking, and PDP (Pre, During, Post), which supports the development of receptive skills like listening and reading.

Among the activities conducted, they were guided on using lesson planning templates.


Warm-up: A "warm-up" at the start of a class is a quick activity that gets students ready for learning. It helps them focus and get involved in the lesson.

Presentation: This is when the teacher introduces new information or concepts to students. It involves explaining and demonstrating the material to help students understand it.

Practice: Involves students in applying new skills through exercises, with the teacher providing support and guidance. This helps reinforce their understanding and develop their abilities.

Production: It is achieved when students independently use their new skills or knowledge to create or perform something. This stage lets them demonstrate their understanding without teacher intervention.

Wrap-Up: This is the final part of a lesson where the teacher reviews and summarizes key points. It reinforces learning and addresses any remaining questions.

That concludes our studies for the week. I hope you found the lessons on preparing and dividing a class as insightful and valuable as I did.

See you next week, God willing!!

Here's a snapshot of my diet from this week—hope it brings a smile or laugh! XD

PDP Method

  Welcome back! This week, we dive into the importance of receptive skills in language learning. These skills—listening and reading—are essential for anyone looking to learn English with fluency. Receptive skills allow you to understand and process information, forming the basis for successful communication in any language. In our class, we discussed effective strategies that teachers can use to help students improve these skills. From active listening exercises to guided reading activities, we explored various methods educators can implement to enhance learners' comprehension. At the beginning of the class, we read an article about what people eat in Barcelona to assess the student's reading comprehension and information retention. After reading, Teacher Orlando asked us: "What was the article about?", "How many meals do they have in Barcelona?", and "What foods are mentioned in the article?" The purpose was to validate whether we understood the...

Welcome to my blog!  I am Genesis Vasquez, and I will share my journey through learning English Didactics. I am currently a fifth-year student of Translation and Interpreting at the Universidad Evangélica de El Salvador. Teaching is a big challenge, but I am willing to learn and capture as much knowledge as possible to share with others. So, pack your luggage to start this journey with me. Going back to college makes me feel very concerned because I will have to work harder than ever due to my work and academic responsibilities, however, I decided to start with the best attitude. The English Didactics class is divided into two classes that will be scheduled on Tuesdays and Thursdays. In our first class, the professor explained a brief overview of the activities we will be doing throughout the semester. He explained what the class was about and we took a diagnostic test. In the second class, we learned about the grammar-translation method (GTM) . A method that started in the 1840s a...

The Kolb´s Experiential Learning Cycle + Learning Styles

  Hello, everyone! I will share with you what we learned this week. The Kolb´s Experiential Learning Cycle David Kolb's theory of experiential learning suggests that learning happens in a cycle with four stages: experiencing something directly, reflecting on the experience, forming abstract ideas based on the experience, and then testing these ideas in new situations. He believes that learning begins with actually doing something or having a direct experience. 1.      Concrete Experience: This stage involves learners experiencing something new or engaging in practical activities. It's all about direct, hands-on learning. 2.      Reflective Observation: After the hands-on experience, learners think about what happened. They consider what went right, what went wrong, and what lessons they can take away from the experience. 3.      Abstract Conceptualization : Learners try to make sense of their experience by coming up...
