Post-lesson reflection note
My lesson is based on teaching vocabulary and grammar structures. The class learns English for the first year. They are 8-9 years old. Their attitude to English Language learning is very good. There are pupils of different leading learning styles. Knowing that I try to use their stronger and weaker aspects of their multiple intelligences for effective lesson planning. Materials used in the course-book give a wide range of activities to ensure that everybody’s preferences are catered for.I worked with simple words and structures, use a song, drawings, pictures, illustrations in the lesson. I used presenting new language, using pictures, opposites and translation. I had Matching words to pictures, What’s missing? activities at the practice stage.
The reaction of the children was well. Their mood, ability to work makes me think that they enjoyed the lesson and really learned the words. They made right sentences and their pronunciation was good.
