Classroom management

Classroom management is a matter of great importance, since it depends on everything. The learning, teacher / pupil or student / teacher relationship.


The quality of the teacher, the environment you create, the goals you want to set the first day of class must be present in a clear and transparent manner, and from there to the end of the course. Because students will understand what kind of art teacher, and you are treated as treaties, learn and be involved according to Professor therefore has to create a climate of trust, security, welfare, and a good education is displayed.

The use of English

The use of English today is very important and necessary, because this learning helps good communication with different people from different places. Forming us well and growing in what is unknown or not understood, brings culture, empathy for different traditions, communication with people in remote locations, etc. It is a key to network, create bonds learning.

Teacher competences

Teacher competences, we must not lose sight, so organize lesson plans around them. For if a teacher follows those powers, will impact on their students, being so these students will obtain a complete learning.

Teacher training experiences

This year in center practices, I learned how to teach students to interactively English also funny. All this through the use of ICTs, with the intervention of the teacher for students to participate and intervene. Creating a fun atmosphere and therefore a positive learning environment.

Creating the Blog

The creation of the Blog, has been an adventure.


It has taught me how to convey everything learned over the semester, also seeking resources and material there for I found very interesting pages that bring me impart information so positively and enriched my future students.

Performances

The actions of a teacher are very important because they are a clear example for the student, are the benchmark to which mimic, copy. Therefore, the actions must be correct, must teach and show how they must also act, it depends on the relationship of the student with the same, with others and with the world itself.

Formative and shared assessment

The evolution in people is constant, so for good growth of the person themselves have to look at the behavior of others, in one way or another empathic being, because it helps to understand and correct behaviors, attitudes, actions. Being thus growth and positive training.

Creativity and flexibility

Creativity is a key feature in every teacher, as students need different, dynamic, fun activities, rewarding, etc. Creativity helps a good learning.


Flexibility is also an important requirement because every child is different, so you need only certain things, particular way. The teacher has to adjust at every student need individualized, concrete way. This will help learning and positive involvement.

Class activities

The classroom activities have helped to see that teach different is possible that as future teachers must try to think like them and give the best of ourselves.

Storytelling and stories and telling sequence

The story telling was one of the funniest, most satisfying and learning activities. It's a different way to show the children stories. Both students and the teacher learn that stories are an important resource and not to be missed.

The stories help the teacher to think like a child, to create and imagine how they show so after that that gives them a positive learning.

ICT

ICTs are now more present day than ever and they are a great contribution to man. We must be aware of the influence it has on students, so it has to work.


The ICT have advantages and disadvantages, and particularly if used in excessive, uncontrolled or negatively, therefore we must form, investigate, seek what is good for the development of p students learning and what things are not. Thus, help students to use ICT positively and rewarding.

Team work

Teamwork is essential because throughout life people are in continuous socialization. Therefore, in school is important to teach students to work and groups.

Further work in groups helps to grow and learn, because someone can complement, help provide or strengthen, something that one does not possess.


Group work provides a valuable and important learning, as a person you how many values such as patience, forgiveness, friendship, etc. Very important for growth and the type of person you can be.

Book

The book of this course is a high quality support because it contains a lot of information on how to teach a class.
It contains several sections and each of them we can find a variety of resources.

Teaching using this book as a teacher opens a set of diverse possibilities. No more excuses to give a kind of traditional way, as future teachers or teachers, we must update, dive with students grow together.
