OBSERVATION 1
You are so much more comfortable with the group than when I first observed you, which is great to see. You have obviously got to grips with
the challenges of the HCT FNDS classroom without losing core skills you are using groups rather than traditional rows, and you brought
movement / a change of focus to the class with the writing on A3 activity. Not everyone can carry these sort of activities off, believe me, so
well done.
The lesson is well planned and executed, with logical stages that are well timed. Your instructions are very clear and the activities themselves
work well, partly as a result of instructions but also because the tasks themselves are doable with just about the right amount of difficulty.
You are at the centre of the class but know when to step back and let the students work. You also give them enough space when answering
to get it right among themselves without you guiding too much. You are definitely making them work. There is a nice blend of activities, and
you make the listening accessible. Listening can be very, very dry if you dont get it right, but you do a very good job with this.
Speaking exercise is nicely structured, and draws on their own experience. Students often struggle for ideas but this is something very close
to them.
To think about: the only thing I can mention here is how to ensure Ss use English in speaking activities its a constant challenge and not one
I have the answer to myself.
This was a very good lesson that demonstrated your considerable teaching ability. I look forward to our next observation, and also your
reflections on the lesson as a whole.
