Third Teaching Practice


Describe

My last class was a little different, I failed in a very important aspect. As teachers, we have to know the boundaries between teaching and playing, unfortunately in my last class I played with the students for the whole hour which distorted the class, some students got bored of playing and were not interested anymore in the game, others started making other things and so on...

The development of the class wasn't wat I expected since I overused gaming in the classroom, I got involved because I was having fun and that was what ruined the momentum in the classroom without noticing that some students were bored and tired of the game that was being played.

I know that there is a time for playing and a time for working, unfortunately I did not realize what was happening in the class, I got involved too much into the playing which is not right and the learning process is not based only on playing even though you lear more when you are having fun and loving what you are doing

In the future, I must not get too involved in the playing but in the teaching part.

Less time for games should be arranged in the plan.

Better instructions have to be given to the students and stablish ground rules in the class before playing games.

  1. We are just beginning Edward! We do not have any experience about teaching; so, we might face situation like the one you faced. The good thing is that you learned that you have to change that. I think that the most of the activities do not have to take more than 15 to 20 minutes because otherwise, students would get bored. Keep going!
