CLASS DESCRIPTION:

The students in this class are between 7 and 8 years old. There are 30 students in each course. The first lesson starts at 15:15 and ends at 15:50 and the second one starts at 16:00 and ends at 16:40. The teacher enters the classroom and she starts singing the “Hello” song. Students stand up and start singing and acting out the song. With this routine they practice actions and parts of the body. After that, they check the weather all together and they talk about how they feel that day (happy, sad, angry, sleepy). The teacher presents the activities and they work hard continuously. Generally, they revise vocabulary of the previous class and in each new unit they learn a song. All the activities last between 5 to 10 minutes. The class ends when the teacher starts singing the “Goodbye” song.

One important aspect of the class is that as they are very young and with a low level of English, they speak in Spanish all the time, except when they have to talk about themselves or when they have to sing a song.

ROUTINES:

“Hello” song, check the weather, moods, “Goodbye” song.

WARM UP:

We will start the lesson by singing the “Hello” song. After that, we will give each student a piece of cardboard with their names, so that we can recognize them more easily. Then, we will check the weather using the flashcards and immediately after that we will ask the students how they feel today, using a ball.
