REFLECTION ON GROUP 1MICRO TEACHING

(Aug 08, 2015)

Teaching context:

Level: Grade 10Lesson: VOLUNTARY WORK

Skill : Speaking

1. Strength

- Teacher tried to dress well and the lesson is designed with clear and

correct procedures.

- Activities were quite various and logic.

2. Weakness- There is no classroom description, no approach introduction, no

information about learners. Therefore, there is no reason to reflect the

interactiveness of the topic.

a. Prespeaking activities

- Warm up activity is wellprepared to engage students to the topic.

- Preteaching vocabulary is effective but teacher did not give clear

instructions to students in the matching game, leading to students

misguided to get ideas for their speaking activities later on, andteacher missed the target of activities.

b. Whilespeaking

- Teacher used ALM approach to deliver model conversation. ALM

works very well if teacher want to practice a structure and help

students form new habit of using new structure. Personally, I find this

approach inappropriate to teach preintermediate level because this

level has enough essential structure to produce a sentence without

model sentences. Moreover, there is no specific structure focused in

this lesson and ALM become time consuming.

- There is no context for speaking.

3. Suggestions

- Put students in group more and let them elicit the main ideas rather

than prepare all main ideas for speaking.

- Teacher should give clear description of classroom background such

as class size, learners to select the approach and techniques, the topic

and content.

- If the teacher chooses an authentic topic, material should b authentic

then. Procedure should be more interactive with context in real life.
