I do this and move on to revision. I ask the first student, who is now unsuccessfully trying to hide from my attention. He eventually gathers the courage to give the answer that he learned last week and stands up. I repeat this exercise on several other equally unwilling students and am fairly happy with the results. I move on to the next question, also taught that first lesson.
Notebooks are very popular in Thailand.
Even the first graders who are barely writing have them and one look at the cover will demonstrate why their English is so bad. As they get their notebooks out, I point to where they have each written how to give their ages. As she shrinks down as low as possible, she asks if she may be excused to go to the bathroom. I let her go as quickly as possible. I conclude that this lesson I will teach the class vocabulary and phrases relating to food.
