The topic in the presentation (video games) made students be alert and engaged as they love playing games and were eager to talk about them. The use of the thinking routine THINK -PAIR- SHARE encouraged participation and helped students to give their opinions and listen to those of the rest of the class showing respect and tolerance to wait for each turn. Even though I was a bit nervous before the class started, everything developed smoothly

I found difficult to plan a creative lesson on relative clauses.
Even though students were engaged, participated a lot and learnt what a relative pronoun is, which types of relative clauses there are and how they can use them, I am sure that I will do it totally different next time I have the chance of teaching this topic. I will make the lesson more dynamic perhaps using some minutes of a movie or the video of a song to help them make inferences on the topic. I believe that it would make them be more interested in learning about this.

I asked the students to think about learning skills so they could tell me which abilities they need to learn.
The group is very talkative and participative so they were eager to provide their opinions and reply to their partners'.
When we joined this with the phrasal verbs connected to this topic, they were very happy as they are working very hard to improve their writing skills and the "discovery" of a new way of expressing themselves was like finding the treasure in a treasure hunt.

In this lesson students could realize that studying at school is not only memorazing dates and information that they think is not relevant for them. They enjoyed the video we watched on the 21st Century Skills, the completition of the chart and they noticed that the skills they learn in each subject can be easily trasnpolated to their daily life outside school. I believe that they have never thought about this before.
For sure their change of mind will help me to plan the following classes.

This lesson dealt with the writing of letters. If I have to describe it in terms of a metaphor I would say that the group worked as a bee hive : each of them concentrated in their task but, at the same time, doing it collaboratively in order to get better results. Buzzes could be heard but harmoniously and happily.

I choose the segment from minute 27:50 to 28:37. I asked for a volunteer to read the exam tip and I was surprised by a very shy girl who never wanted to read aloud but this time she did it. I felt very happy to see she had an expression of complete success by overcoming a difficulty.

 strategies did you use? Which ones were effective? Why/ why not?

# data[].attributes.body
I used different strategies: I provided examples, I organize a debate, I made them work collaboratively, I activated previous knowledge, among others. In general they were effective, but the one who made a difference was when I told them that I had done many activities throughout my life but the one that scared me was to come back home with my newly born baby... without a manual!
They provided lots of examples on activities that they did although they were so difficult that they were scared.
I could notice that they felt more and more confident as long as they provide examples and heard some from the others.

In this lesson, we reviewed the content of the whole unit before the test. We did a Mindfulness activity as we do in every class to help them relax and then we played games (Bamboozle, Wordwall, and Kahoot). I divided the class into two teams and they compete. When the answer was not right the team had to pay a "fine" (do push-ups, sing a song, etc). The class was energetic, lively, and meaningful.
Students love the class, the games, and enjoyed the way in which I planned the revision.

This class was dedicated to do a test. I always tell my students that they are opportunities to reflect on their progress and if the result is not so good, they will have other opportunities to change it.
I used this quote to project it on the board while they were doing the test.
By the way, they did it great!

I am happy because I could finish my practicum overcoming all the difficulties that aroused ( yes, even though a jornada that made me postpone the last class!). I can only say that I'm proud of myself: I am close to the end of my teacher's training college stage. Those were years of enormous effort, conquests, and satisfaction.

I'm proud of being a teacher. I have been one since 1985 and I am very near to putting the strawberry on top of the dessert. I'm thankful to my teachers, my partners, my family, and myself.
