Proof Fence Reflection
For this class and all the classes I taught this semester I used material that was created by me (worksheets-class activities). Also, at the beginning of every class I wrote down on a little white board the lessons plan for that day. For example,
Today we will:
Watch the film for 40 minutes.
Finish a true of false worksheet.
Your homework will be, to read a small part of the book Rabbit-Proof Fence. My plan was to motivate my students to learn by using task-based tasks (communicative teaching approach) content – based teaching and multisensory teaching. In every group activity I divided my students by strengths:
Student 1 writes.
Student 2 makes sure there are no language errors.
Student 3 keeps check of the time (you have 5 minutes).

Therefore, the plan for the first class was to create a preaching activity for the movie Rabbit Proof - Fence.

Today my class started as usual I wrote down the plan for today’s class and followed by checking the student’s attendance. Today my students would receive their exams with detailed feedback. Their assignment today was to go over their exam and correct their mistakes grammar mistakes, spelling mistakes. They could also ask me to clarify any doubts they had relating to the exam. Additionally, they were allowed to work in pairs or groups to help each other go over their exams.
The class went very well and I learned a lot there was nothing that would have changed.
