Energetic Little English Learners

                                                                                        
Hello (: I will talk about my second day of internship at Osmaniye Primary School. I entered 2 different class with English teacher.This time I did not choose to enter secondary school classes. I will talk about my experinces in  3/E class.

I introduced myself to the students.I could not decide what I must say to them at that moment because long sentences came to my mind at first but I stopped myself to say these sentences and said to myself’’ You entered a class which has very very young learners.What are you doing? Just be clearer to them’’ Then I just said my name and how I am pleased to be with them.After introducing myself, I sat a desk near to a little cute student. I started to observe the lesson from there.

The topic was  ‘’Family members’’.The teacher made students do a listening activity first. Students listened to a song and then anwsered the questions on the coursebook according to the song.The activity was good in terms of listening skills but the song was fast and the lyrics were a bit unclear for young learners .Students had diffuculty to understand the song. Then the teacher started to sing the song slowly and students understood the song.They answered the questions in the activity. 
The thing which was the most important to see for me was students’ eagerness to participate to the lesson contrary to secondary school students. These little cute students were very motivated in the class. They were competing each other to answer the questions but they exaggareted it by complaning about each other to the teacher. Teacher said to them’’ You  should not complaing about your friends’’ but they did not listen to the teacher in that way.

Another thing I liked most is that  the teacher assigned the responsibility of controlling the homeworks to the students.Every day she assigns three students to control their classmates whether they did their homeworks. It’s important to give responsbilities to students at that age because if they learn take responsibilities at early ages this will be useful for them in their future life.


When the class was over,teacher chose the best students of day.She gave stickers as a present to them because they participated to lesson,they listened to teacher very  well and did their homeworks.In my opinion,reward system is  one of the motivating things for students to be active in the class. It triggers students to be more succesful.
