ESL - UCV

INTRODUCTION

I have made this part on my blog because I would like to say how I have been working.

First of all I will talk about the book I've used in class: "500 Activities for the Primary Classroom" buy Carol Read.

It has been a very good mate, it is very useful and I recommend it for all the people who are studying for being a teacher. It has a los of activities  which can use for children.

With this book we have worked in teams. We were 3 people, and we have been working all together in each activity. Working in teams is very nice, because you can learn a los about other people. Every person is different, and you can listen and learn about what they think, how they act and how they would do an activity.

In class we have worked all together on the very hungry caterpillar tale ande from that we have developed different nursery focused activities.

C-WHEEL

Summary of working with children.

The text of the book explain us the idea of the C-weel this is a tool that can help us to create the optimal conditions maximize children's learning and create a perfect classroom environment.

The C-wheel is composed of 8 segments: the first of them been the Context and followed by Connections, Coherence, Challenge, Curiosity, Care, Community and Creativity. Each one of these segments are crucial for the C-wheel to be effective and they must be corrected to the children. 

Also the C-wheel is surrounds by external factors defined by the different cultures and context in which the teaching is taking place. The text also provides us with a set of advices to enhance our teaching: managing children positively, building good and long lasting relationships, determining rules and routines, rights and responsibilities, learning respect and rewarding the children.

MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCE

So you can understand what multiple intelligence are, you can watch the next video of Sir Ken Robinson.

To finish my post, I would like to say how important the use of english is in life. It's not just a language . It's a way to learn a new world, a new culture and a new point of view. Children need to learn english since they are babies, and people who are studying to be teacher should know how important it is.

English is the most important language in the world, and they will need it a lot in the future, My biggest dream is to become a good teacher, a better person and, not only to teach the kids, I want to learn from them.
