This lesson will be taught at the middle of November, right after the end of a weeklong fall break. The students had some rest, and they are not ready to hard and demanding brainwork. That definitely has some influence on the amount of new material students can understand and remember. My class consists of 12 students. Students are used to working in pairs and are usually eager to share their thoughts and experiences with the whole class.
Students have to work with different partners everyday.
That helps to improve listening and comprehension skills as well as increases opportunities for cooperative learning. There are no major problems with behavior in this class. Sometimes while working in pairs some students may become excited and start speaking too loud, but normally teacher can quickly stop it. The fourth point of entry is the student. I have a student that requires more attention than the rest of the class, and I must take it into consideration while planning.
