My first day reflection was really positive. The course was just like a workshop. We all shared our experience together. I understood the importance of sustainability in class management. As I am in primary school, I can also use my personal star activity especially in the third grades while teaching family members.

My second day was very productive. Instead of talking about the relation between teaching and learning Simon made use of visuals and jigsaw reading so that we can discuss our ideas with other colleagues. It was like a brainstorming. And I got the idea that in order to speak listening is important. However, for students to make listening activities meaningful we should adapt these listening activities to the needs  our classrooms in order to support oral skills.

Today we talked about how to encourage our students to take part in speaking activities. Infact I always make use of songs and chants but I write the words first without using the visual. From now on I am going to stress the intonation and the rhythm in my song activities. Also I download some popular songs from internet but I rewrite its  lyrics again. For example I write lyrics about fruits for 2nd grade children. But I don't use drills in my listening activities. What I understand from this lesson is that drills is very crucial in listening activities.

I think shared reading is useful because this technique helps the students to be more active. And this integrates the students into the lesson. As the teacher covers the pictures of the story, s/he gives them a chance to predict the context and what will  happen next. However in Turkey the classes are crowded, and there will be too much noise during this activity. I used to read aloud to my students and made them read after,but from now on I am not going to read aloud and use the skimming and scanning technique to teach the vocabulary.

As a primary school English teacher, it is sometimes challenging to lead entertaining activities and games and maintain balance between enjoyment of children and acceptable behaviour. For example, I set up a game that contains cups,and under each cup a letter of the alphabet was written. And there was a bell and I chose two students. Whoever rang the bell chose one of the cups and said a word that began with that letter. It was a game for children to form words. But while students were playing the game, they became very competitive and began to make noise. Because of their age, it was hard to establish rules in the classroom. And in order to overcome this problem, I reminded them the classroom language 2, such as "Raise your hands before speaking, and lower your voice."

In my classes, I use classroom games for warm up. I use games like Simon says or touch....,show,...etc. These games wake students up in a way. In my Pdcs and also in my classes I am going to use personal star for warm up and onion rings for engage activity.  Because onion rings is a good way to pair, and share. I prepare activities and games in my classes but from now on especially in my fourth grade class, I will definitely use onion rings. Also  I will use google forms and padlets for taking feedback.

I think being a facilitator will give me much opportunity in coordinating my lessons at school and not only my pdcs. Also it will improve my relations and contribute my communication skills. Throughout network I have built will help me, I will make use of my colleagues from whats app groups or the meeting at zooms. Honestly, I didn't use to think of the planning process in my lessons.I used many activities but I didn't take  into consideration my students' age group or their interests. So this PDC made me observe the planning process. Last but not least, I haven't heard of ICQ Questions while giving a lecture. From now on even if I am in a PDC or in a presentation or in a lesson, I will always think of ICQ Questions and the outcome.

I am used to giving presentation, because I did presentations in the university. However, I am now aware of the fact that collobaration tasks should be included in presentations. In this couse, the memory I will never forget is the mirror activity that is used in order to talk about reflection. Also the methodology that was taught at ou universities was revised in the PDC Training programme with tasks. And these tasks made these techniques much more permanent. Also I think that in my learning area, these pdc sessions will act as a brainstorming as the teachers will gather together to share their solutions to the problem encountered in the lessons.
