will feel more confident and motivated.
 Possible problems/difficulties and possible solutions in the class:
Students are used to listening to their teacher speaking in Spanish during the
whole lesson. They do not speak in English. I will speak English during the whole
class so if they do not understand, I will use body gestures, facial expressions,
miming, and modeling to aid comprehension.
 Assessment: what will be assessed and how?
I’ll check students’ understanding and participation by providing help when necessary.
I’ll provide the opportunity to develop their skills and help them to improve or build
confidence in their activities.
