“What difficulties do you experience with your learners staying on task? by Lydia Olvera https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q Share your experience en-us 2021-04-11 01:02:16 UTC 2021-05-15 22:52:52 UTC hello@padlet.com yareliama https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527546315 One of the most difficult things is to keep them interested and focused on the task. They love playing games but when they do not have a game they keep asking about when are we playing something. 

Also, sometimes I think that finding an engaging topic/subject for them can be difficult. As now I'm giving a speaking workshop for very young kids (ages 5-7) and they just want to talk about animals, but we can't continue talking about that; it's been 3 weeks and we have to change subjects now. :( 

Also, parents can be a BIG distractor for them. They tend to whisper things and answers to the kids and that is very annoying.

They feel desperate if something takes time. Sometimes I feel that they want all the knowledge ready to be eaten and then they may feel discouraged if they make mistakes.]]> 2021-05-15 22:07:32 UTC https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527547233 When cousins are in the same space sometimes they get distracted because they are speaking and playing so they want to. jakemontesmoncada https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527548439 2021-05-15 22:09:16 UTC https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527548439 jakemontesmoncada https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527549139 Cameras off are also a problem I have found during classes because apparently they are paying attention but then I realized they were playing roblox or fornite. ]]> 2021-05-15 22:10:18 UTC https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527549139 jakemontesmoncada https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527549997 Kahoot is not interesting anymore. They feel all the websites have been used are becoming a cliché. ]]> 2021-05-15 22:11:36 UTC https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527549997 “What difficulties do you experience with your learners staying on task? livioceballosgarcia https://padlet.com/olvera_lyd/m4s102limdqfjj2q/wish/1527553433 What I have experienced some issues with students while working on some tasks is sometimes writing their own answers or speaking about it, because they are mainly A1, A2 Ss and are lacking vocabulary, so sometimes they do get frustrated and don´t want to try anymore, therefore, it´s a bit difficult keeping them motivated, at the end, everything works out just well but it has become an ongoing scenario.
