Our dear Professor Palencia.. Getting ready

for the first class

During the first class, professor talked about the platform

(edmodo.com) we were suppose to work on. All information

about the course was loaded up already in that webpage

Edmodo is a "social

learning platform"

website for teachers,

students, and parents

Kagan Cooperative structure is a way of easily increasing the amount of time your pupils spend ‘on task’

First technique we use during the course. Weintroduced ourselves (pairs)

Teacher hands out different topics for discussion – teams had

to analyze them and prepare a poster explaining those

documents.

Theories of teaching language

Always focused on every detail and information that

the teacher was teaching in class.

As last activity of that day, teacher invited us to

write on a small sheet what new ideas we

learned during the class.

we had to represent these ideas in a sketch -

another fun dynamic to use our creativity

Notes to raise concerns within

us…

We were trying to understand how the plataform

works – EDMODO:COM

Head – shoulders – knees and toes…..

Knees and toes…!!!

Finally we all heard her voice speaking in

Spanish.. Everyone was surprise..!!!

An example of TPR class

The Audio-lingual Method is a method for foreign

language teaching which emphasized the teaching of

listening and speaking before reading and writing.

My group had to prepare a document and try to

convince the audience to use that method…

The method emphasizes the autonomy of the learner; the

teacher's role is to monitor the students' efforts, and thestudents are encouraged to have an active role in

learning the language.

……. Another team had to present this method.

The CLL emphasizes the sense of community in the learninggroup, it encourages interaction as a vehicle of learning

We were always giving the best to present

a fine quality work…

We began the class with a multintelligence test

Professor Palencia talks about this topic which is a term in

linguistic that refers to a language user's grammatical knowledge

of syntaxsis, morphology, phonology and the like, as well as social

knowledge about how and when to use utterances

appropriately.

Professor Palencia we talk about the five

intelligences Gardner and important to

keep in mind at the time of facing a

classroom.

•The Disciplinary Mind

•The Synthesizing Mind

•The Creating Mind

•The Respectful Mind

•The Ethical Mind

a very cool activity I will definitely use at

school….

Some notes taken during the last Saturday.
