         <description><![CDATA[<div>Today our main focus was on how to teach writing for our students.ln different group works we dealed with various aspects of writing. We were provided with samples in which we were actively engaged and had chance to experience and evaluate which activities work best. Through these activities l got new tips which l can adapt to my tasks in the classroom. We also worked collaboratively and exchanged ideas over the implementation of using technology. We compared and learned about new Web 2.0 tools and how to adapt them for writing. Overall l can say that today's lesson was stimulating. And l liked it a lot.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.I would like to explore about what kind of activities my colleagues are doing before starting a speaking/listening lesson.To me, it is really hard to draw all students' attention and get them eager-willing for these lessons.And If we can't catch our students' interest at the beginning of the lesson, the rest won't possibly go well as expected.<br>2.There are a range of problems when it comes to listening&amp;speaking. Most of the students don't have self confidence.Some of them don't feel the necessity to listen or speak.They have concerns to speak out in the class because of social pressure when they make mistakes, their friend may mock or etc.<br>3.We were supplied many effective ideas today.I liked how the teacher monitored the lesson during the activities and follow up feedback ways.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1- Firstly, I remembered of categorising my reading task as pre, while and post. We were supplied with various activities to draw Ss' attention such as brainstorming, using pictures, relate to real life etc. But what I had learned for the first time, and surprised me was implementing K/W/L chart. I will definitely try this in my lessons to sustain interest in the class.<br>2- As to the use of Flipped Learning in my classes, I can say that it can be difficult for me to check the works of the students individually because of the crowded classroom setting. However, assigning students with group work activities can ease this challenge here. Moreover, giving students the parts that they can easily do and they enjoy doing as homework would be time saver for me, and I can focus on the challenging tasks in the class.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In stead of teaching ss the language patterns: grammer explicitly, we had better let ss figure the rules out by themselves first.We should give ss some tasks and give enough time for it. Each student has his/her way of undertanding, own learning pace or constructing the new patterns.Through implicit learning, ss are responsible for their own learning.They are more independent, active and motivated to learn.In this way grammer teaching is more meaningful.Thinking of babies acquiring the L1,they learn it in a natural way.We need to supply our ss such learning situations, games or stories to elicit target structures.We can do a drawing picture activity in a context or give speech bubbles then elicit answers.Teachers are mnitoring ss to learn.E.g: We can use Loom to teach grammar as it provides teachers a variety of opportunities to teach.Through these kind of activities, ss will be in the center of learning process and it is more fun for students.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>As a PLC facilitator we must set why we are doing such kind of a work when the teachers in our community understand the importance&nbsp; of this proffesional gatherings.We should create such a relaxed atmosphere that everybody can express, share, exchange or even monitor the session.We are there to find solutions to our common problems maybe get advise from more proffesionals if we require.I am looking forward to trying and see how it works with my own community.I am sure we as whole teachers have lots of things to learn from one another.All during this process, we as facilitators are not in the role of a teacher for other teachers, rather a helper(reminding them l am not their superior.)<br>I had lots of colleagues here both from class 6 and from this gathering.For now, I don't have a question but I am sure I'll have things to ask later duing the process.</div>]]></description>

         <title>Day 6- Vocabulary</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Teaching vocab. is one of the most enjoy able part of language learning. However, the main problem is to be able to remember and use it correctly. Even starting to a lesson we used words today, which was very logical and relevent. One of my takeaways from this session was starting teaching vocab by pronunciation. As it is in natural aquisition of a language.&nbsp;<br>It is important to categorize words, because when we categorize things on our brains, it's easier to remember. Ss should also personal ize the target words so that it will be more interesting and mwiemorable. Of course, l liked the idea of playing a "Dolmuş" game for practising. I would definitely&nbsp; share it with my collegues. Also l liked bingo game, booked.com game if they have the facilities. I would definitely share that even without digital, we can create great materials.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>
