I arrived in the school
at about 8:00 o’clock AM, I went to the teacher’s room where I found Andressa
there and I asked her about the teacher Leli, she told me she was waiting for
her too. Since Leli was taking too long to arrive in the teacher room, I
decided to ask some other teacher about her, he told me she was in the office
room. I went to the office room and then I found the teacher Leli with Rafaela
who was still putting students' grades in the class diary. Then, I asked her if
my students had come that day, she asked me to go there and verify as I went to
my classroom. When I entered the class, there were many noisy students from
Jefferson’s class, in the middle of them I saw just a student of mine, another
student was missing and someone told me she was out of the class.
I called the only one
student to get closer as I sat near her and asked about the absent student as
she confirmed she was outside. Then I said I would not wait for her as I
started the review just with her. Jefferson's students were making much noise
and then politely I asked them to leave the room because of their noise and
they obeyed me leaving us in silence. I told her to take note of the grammar
topics with the corresponding pages in the book; I handed out the review
activity and I started reviewing each one of the four topic, eliciting her to
remind them as I had all her emergent doubts cleared up. I realized that in an
exclusive direct relation to just a single student, they usually feel more
comfortable to ask about their doubts and they participate more, engage more,
we perceive their doubts and thus they learn much more.
As she had some more
doubts about Tag questions, I helped her to understand its usage, which for
affirmative sentences, negative tag questions, and for negative sentence,
affirmative tag questions. I elicited her to realize that we have to use the
same auxiliary verb of the sentence with the same verb tense, if the first
sentence start with the auxiliary verb to be, the tag questions should also use
the verb to be and so on. In the middle of the class, at about 9:10 AM, the
other student entered the room as I looked at her seriously, but I called her
to get closer to us. She came and I asked her to wait until I finish the review
with the student.
I reviewed everything with the first student and
I read the dialog with her, then she left the room. As for this late student, I
explained her that since she had arrived very late, I would be very fast with
her. I handed out the activity and I started reviewing each one of the topics
but in a very brief way, fortunately she showed to have some domain in the
topics I was presenting. I asked her to study hard and I told the pages in the
book for her to study those topics as well. Then I asked her to read the
dialog, she read it with my direction helping her to understand and to realize
the grammar topic usage and then we left the room at about 10:30 AM. Although the time was very short to review four grammar topics, I was
very practical and objective with taking this little time to review everything
and students contributed for they have reminded and clarified their doubts in a
short time
