Before the first session I had some hesitations about organizing PDCs. I thought that a facilitator should have a mentoring role in PDCs.After today's workshop I got that the facilitator facilities the teachers to have a refleftive thinking on their own teaching process by noticing the points they miss and find some effective ways to develop their teaching skills.

I can use "My Personel Star" because it can help the teachers to know about each other overcome their hesitation to share their ideas. Also I think the "Actionbound" can make the process more entertaining .Giving the learners aims to learn and some tasks to do offer more interactive PDCs.

I can use the "Pictorial Game"in the firs meeting I can help the teachers to know their  names in a funny way .It can ease the interaction process between the participants.
I can use the "Four Corners " method In the first stage I read aloud one of the mostly faced problems in teaching process. Then I ask the participants to look at the four pictures on the wall and choose the picture describing the most suitable solution. Then I give some time them to discuss with their group members and choose someone in each group to deffend their ideas about it.
I can also use the jigsaw reading in any content.The fact of that the everybody should take the responsibility to complete the task accurately makes the learning process more pleasent.

Using "Pictorial Games" for the first meeting can enable people in a group to know each other ,ask questions and aswering.This ensures the interaction in the group. Guessing via the pictures of one and try to guess it makes fun . It can supply a relaxing atmosphere.
"Four Corners" activity supports the students' self confidence by giving them opportunity to think about the question the teacher asked,choose their part and support their ideas throughouot discussion.
Jigsaw Reading needs cooperation and it helps students to improve their social skills.Everybody has a responsibilty to complete the task.It can be an efficient way to foster communication and listening skills.

The aim of the use of "Pictorial Games" is to make the process funnier and help teachers to communicate with each other by guessing.
Four Corners Activity can be used to improve students'self confidence, help them to have critical thinking and force their speaking skills by giving them an opportunity to support their ideas.
Jigsaw reading may provide the leraners with self responsibility and cooperation.

What do you think needs to be adapted most in your coursebooks to help children improve their oral skills?

What do you think needs to be adapted most in your coursebooks to help children improve their oral skills?

# data[].attributes.body
I honestly should say that after the 3rd days' workshop I realised that  considerable part of the dialogues used in our coursebooks doesn't have a natural and child-friendly language.Reductions aren't used most of the times.On the other hand when the students listen t o the texts in the book they come acrooss the expressions reduced.This makes them confused.
As we aim to improve our stdents' communication skills and enable them to speak in daily life, the content should involve the most common used expressions ,sttructures and phrases.
In addition to these, every dialogue doesn't contain clear context. My sudents sometimes have a difficulty in understanding .To cope with it, most ofthe times I make up a context for them and inform the students before that listening/speaking session.

I definitely make "Modelling and Drilling" one because I believe that this may help them a lot when they deal with the students in Primary School.
I also plan to use the "Secret handshakes" to help the adults to be relaxed and enjoy the meeting more .

Children may feel overwhelmed by reading more sentence at a time.They may haave a diffulty in understanding the connections between the sentences becuse they don
't even know about the conjuntions.To prevent the confusability teachers can support the students with  the visuals. they can use a different picture for each sentence to help the students understand the sentences and make the links between them easily.

I think PDC meeting is a drem ticket for tachers. during the meetings techers come together with their colleagues so they have a chance to talk about the problems, their possible solutions, the activies they got efficiency during their classes .It creates a sutible setting for teachers to share their experiences and think how they can make use of them. Because of these reasons I certainly can have a chance to them to talk about the problems during teaching English and the possible solutions to them.
Also all the teachers coming to PDC meetings may not have been graduated from the faculty of education. So they may not know about the some learning-teaching methodologies and strategies. Make discussions about these strategies,methodologies and some examples of the leranerg activities can lead theschers to absorb them.

Most of the time students need help to get the meaning from the story or texts. Shared reading is sutable for them because they share and work together on the meaning, read the story or texts with an enjoyable mood.Tey also involve the text actively by making predictions, discussing pictures and saying the repeated part in the story.

Students can have difficulty in spelling because of the lack of knowledge of the spelling rules and the ability to apply them to unfamiliar words. Consequently the problems can have adverse effects on reading,writing,pronouncing the words, making it difficult to read or spell. Some words can be difficult for studens to spell for such words it could help to develop a mnemonic device based onassociations to help students learn the spelling .
In addition to this teaching some spelling patterns to the students support students with the spelling games can end up solutions to the spelling problems.So I can touch on them.

I can use the Chinese Whispers it can help the tecahers to feel relaxed and more movivated for the sessions. It can help them to listen to each other more intently.Listening skills are also improved with each message whispered, heard and passed on.
In addition to this the Action Voting can provide the teachers with the information of settlers and stirrers. They can be aware of what they mean and provide for the learning and teaching process. To get the aim of them is crucial because they help us to maintain and harmony and dicipline in youung learners' class.

Classroom management encourage students to learn in a good environment. A positive classroom environment positive attitude of teacher can help  it. Praising students' good behaviours can work because classroom management can't be possible if you don't celebrate your students' success.Thet can feel demotivated and loose their interest.
Deciding on simple rules with the students can have a positive effect on classroom management.

What do you consider the greatest benefit of of being in a Professional Development Community for teachers of English in your local context?

# data[].attributes.body
I think the greatest benefit of being a part of the Professional Development Community is sharing ideas and find solutions to the commen problems taht we face.In our local area we have same the same or similar cases.Because culture is the crucial part of the education. It has a huge effect on education.In the west or east of the country the problems faced can be changed.Even in local areas cases can be different. In our PDC meetings we hsve an oppurtunity to share the feelings, discuss the problems and think about the suggestions.The greatest benefit is that you think and be sure you are not alone.

I feel myself so lucky so I met with many teachers here. I had a chance to discuss about the adecation, problems,intended porojects. etc. Everybody has another perspective on a topic so I could discuss with the teachers coming from the different parts of the country. I suppose not to break the bond and keep in touch.
