6. 23. Lesson Reflection / Evaluation:
As I mentioned on my previously lesson reflections, I find satisfying to write my reflections like
this lesson because I can see the results of putting into action new things that didn’t work before,
but with hard work and determination now they do.
For this lesson all students were engaged and participated during the lesson. Students weakness
was not found but I would consider that they were not fully engaged or having fun during the
lesson. One of the things I learnt with fourth form is that they are more mature than the rest and
things that the other forms find funny or interesting is not fun for them. I've been trying to engage
this class with different fun activities and they mainly have fun during the delivery of the concept.
They find it interesting because they are learning new things in which they thought they were right
from the beginning until I bring them the proper way of using and saying of words in Spanish.
Teacher strength is always looking for strategies to engage the students during the lesson. Also,
teacher was able to meet the objectives of the lesson as planned. Teacher weakness was using easy
or simple activities at the end of the lesson for fourth formers.
An area for improvement as mentioned would be using activities that would challenge them more
into the lesson since fourth formers are a lot more advanced in the Spanish area and by this I would
say students would engage for into the lesson.
