New Adventure

This is the link to another class blog. I started this one with my Plus 4 from Mondays and Wednesdays, the class that has been with me for almost 2 years. As the kick off was on Monday, only one student joined the blog, but I'm very anxious to see how it is going to be. Especially because I'm going to connect the two blogs by podcasting. I haven't had any substantial idea, but I'm working on it and I accept suggestions.

Another thing that I have started doing with my classes is to avoid the constant teacher-dictionary in class. They sometimes ask words out of nowhere and I'm pretty sure that we've all been through this situation. As they are Basic 6, every class there is a task to find out the words they do not know in English. Today's class the word is "antepassados". We were talking about museums and a student came up with this word. As they did not know how to paraphrase or rephrase it, they had to look for it online and bring next class. It's working. Let's see if they start being more independent concerning their learning process.

I think that's all for today! And I'm pretty excited about this new semester, especially because I'll have the time to attend many classes and learn a lot from you!!

Cheers!!!
