The History of Street Art Modern graffiti began in big cities in the United States in the 1970s. In New York, young people wrote their names, or 'tags', in pen on walls around the city. One of the first 'taggers' was a teenager called Demetrius. His tag was TAKI 183. He wrote his tag on walls and in stations in New York. Other teenagers saw Demetrius's tag and started writing their tags too. Soon, there were tags on walls, buses and trains all over New York. Then, some teenagers started writing their tags with aerosol paint. Their tags were bigger and more colorful. Aerosol paint graffiti became very popular in the 1970s and 1980s. It appeared on trains, buses and walls around the world. In the 1990s and 2000s, a lot of graffiti artists started painting pictures. Some artists' pictures were about politics. Other artists wanted to make cities beautiful and painted big, colorful pictures on city walls. Graffiti in Galleries In some countries, writing or painting on walls is a crime. Sometimes, graffiti artists have problems with the police. In other countries, artists can draw and
paint in certain places. For example, in Taiwan, there are 'graffiti zones' where artists can paint on walls. In São Paulo in Brazil, street artists can paint pictures on walls and houses. Their pictures are colorful and beautiful. Some tourists visit São Paulo just to see the street art! In Bristol in the UK, there is a street art festival in August every year. Artists paint all the buildings in a street. Lots of people come to watch the artists and take photos. You can see exhibitions of street art in some galleries too.

Self-evaluation: Daily Plan #4 Student teacher on practice: Collado Melina Student teacher as observer: Paulitti, Hernan
Organization of the lesson: The lessons started by checking the activity of the previous class. Then, the students talked about street art and graffiti. They discussed about this kind of art and by doing so, they activated their schemata. I showed them some pictures of 3D street art paintings. As they called their attention, they felt motivated and wanted to participate orally. They also enjoyed the video about a famous German sideway painting called Edgar Muller. They did a reading comprehension activity which took more time than expected. Usage of language along the class: They used the language to communicate between themselves and to check the answers of the activities in order to check if they were right. Oral participation was limited to some key words in English. Handling of the group: They were a bit shy and got restless. However, they were willing to participate in some activities such as the one they had to match and compare their answers. Other aspects to consider: Strong aspects: Visual and auditory aids and classroom management. Weak points to re-consider: Timing and reading comprehension task.

GROUP DIAGNOSIS The group consisted of 30 learners most of them around 14 years old. Their level of English differed among them but they were really enthusiastic and they enjoyed every class. They tried to improve their skills . Apart from that, the student teachers helped and encouraged them to participate. They were really motivated when they had to work in groups and even when they had to move inside or outside the classroom. It is important to remark that every lesson was planned according to their level of comprehension and cultural background knowledge.
Reflection CLIL was essential during our lessons because we had to consider many factors such as: Cultural Background, the learners age, their level of language. Visual and auditory images Were also important during their process of learning because they felt motivated and relaxed during every class. Working cooperatively was also a tool that helped us to make them improve during their process. We really enjoyed this process and the techniques taken from CLIL.

Organization of the lesson: As this was the last lesson, the teacher made some sitting arrangements (as a horse shoe) in order to establish a good eye contact between themselves (the students) and the teacher too. Some activities were performed individually and others in groups of 2 or 3 people. The correction was done orally on the board. Usage of language along the class Although many students were absent because of the bad weather, they really worked very well in groups. They used the language to communicate among themselves and to answer some questions about artistic festivals throughout the world. Handling of the group: The sitting arrangement made them feel more relaxed. The lesson was enjoyed, especially when they had to work with real flyers of the artistic festivals. Other aspects to consider: Strong aspects: The sitting arrangement and visual and auditory aids. The topic was a good choice because they really wanted to participate and make comments about it. Aspects to re-consider: Just few of them had finished their final tasks.
