Second Class, I Period

Well, this time was a Little bit different. I was secure of myself in what things I was going to do. First of all, I prepared my class and I started with a warm-up playing the activity “whispering the sentence” I divided the class into two groups. Then, I asked the students to stand up and form a line for each group in front of the board. 

I had in my hands two different sentences per each group. I was going to whisper one sentence to the last student and this one had to whisper the sentence until the first student and this one had to write the sentence on the board. The students got the idea, but then I got worried because in a moment it was difficult for other student to remember the sentence even though those were short sentences. I asked them to write what they remembered and they did it so. 

Then, I asked them to open their books and work in an exercise completing the chart with some information. The students were taking too much time to do this activity and I was worried because of the time. I demanded them to complete the chart by seen my example.  I drew the chart on the board and explained that to them filling the first space. They took more than the expected time for this activity and I had to help them for them to finish the chart. 

After this activity I passed to a listening that was a short conversation. I played it the first time. I demanded them only to listen to. Then I said open your books and read and listen at the same time and so on the third time. In this time they had to complete the missing information. Then, I started to read it and I asked them to repeat after me. They did it as I demanded but the problem was that the time finished and I could not finish the last activity which was the basis of my objective. But at the end everything was fine.
