At 10:30 all the kindergarten's children have a meeting of ten minutes, in which they sing lots of songs.

The headmistress ‘Seño Nori’ presented me to students. She said ‘Díganle ¡Hola! a la seño Lore. Ella es una seño de inglés, que les va a dar algunas clases a mis alumnos… los chicos más grandecitos…’ so, they said ‘¡Hola!’ and I said ¡Hello! waving my hand

Then, they came back to their specific rooms with their teachers.

At 10:40a.m they had breakfast.Before having it they sang this song:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbsmjUeD2ek

So they drunk some milk, tea or water and ate some cookies. 

Then at 11 o’ clock they worked with a specific topic. During that lesson, they did a collage with colours.

From 11:30 am to 11:50 am they played with didactic games on the tables.

 

Finally, from 11:50 to 12 o’clock the teacher told them a short story about insects.(The teacher sang this song while students were sitting on their chairs in a circle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVdiZwyxdNU)

The final song was this one:

They did all the activities with a song, they love singing and dancing!! The teacher told me that kids haven’t developed their fine motor skills yet, that’s why it’s very difficult for them to write their names or using scissors.

These are some of the students' works:

I taught them through pictures, songs and games (the activities) in order to apply different teaching strategies to different multiple intelligences.

In this lesson, the pictures and the games were effective, because they caught their attention and help kids in their learning. They learnt some animals with some characters that were familiar to them, like: Puss in boots, Rio, Marshall (Paw Patrol) and Pepe frog.

Then, in the activities (the games) the related the animal with their specific sounds. They loved guessing the animal through their sounds.

In this lesson, the song Old McDonald had a farm wasn’t very effective. I mean, they loved the music of the song but they couldn’t sing it. Maybe, if they always had English classes, they would have opportunities to sing it again and learn it. (Even though, as homework, I gave them the links to search the songs on YouTube with their parents.)

 

Through the first and second lesson I could assure that children are more motivated to learn when the teacher uses things that are familiar to them. In both classes I used characters that were familiar to them. So, in mi third class I’ll also apply famous characters they know, to teach them the numbers.

 

 

 

In the first and second lesson as in this one as well, I felt very happy when Erian participated! Erian is a kid, who is very shy and has some problems to socialize. His teacher told me that perhaps he won’t participate, because it’s difficult for him to develop confidence in somebody new. Fortunately, he paid attention all the time, participated eagerly in all the activities and … I have to say it! his pronunciation was almost perfect!

9. Choose a quotation that represents an event, knowledge, insight in this lesson.

If I have to define how I felt in my last lesson this is the phrase: 'A kindergarten love story'. Although, this was the first time I worked with little kids, I must say they are adorable, they're sweet and full of love.
I enjoyed these classes with them so much!!
