MY FIRST OFFICAL DAY OF TEACHING
Hurray, I did it! I completed a full day of teaching. Unsure as to how things were going to go I reminded myself to simply go with the flow. I welcomed my students in the morning and offered them there morning snack while realizing that my students know very little English. Smiling and doing my very best to do mannerisms while talking, I would say my students and I got along very well. I think in a matter of time they will be speaking English beautifully. As for how the day went with each of the classes, we went over the class rules, we introduced ourselves and I went through a little poster board I made of myself. I shared with the class where I am from, my favorite book, color, food, animal, and brought in pictures of my family. I think they enjoyed seeing the pictures the most. After they learned about each other, I had the students work on a connect the dots worksheet so that I could see if they knew there numbers. Afterwards we played a lovely round of color and shapes bingo. Before I knew it the day was over and the students were getting on the bus to return to there homes. My favorite part of the day was lunch because my Korean helper Angela asked my students which class they enjoyed the most and all of them said my class. Now, I don’t know if the students simply said this because they were in my classroom being served lunch or if they really meant it. Either way, I hope I can always keep my class fun and enjoyable and most importantly I just simply want to bond with my students.
