IV. CUADERNO DE ASISTENCIA

46

La asistencia de los alumnos a las escuelas quedará registrada en un cuaderno que habrá en la institución y que el practicante/residente deberá firmar al ingresar a la escuela o en una planilla registro que cada practicante lleve, según indicaciones de la cátedra.

Si alguna asistencia no fuera registrada debidamente en el cuaderno o planilla, el profesor de la práctica la considerará como inasistencia.

Las ausencias, feriados o cualquier otro motivo de suspensión de clase, deberá ser asentado en el cuaderno.

V. PLANIFICACIONES Se presentarán por duplicado: completas, prolijas, organizadas y legibles, con la debida anticipación, quedando una copia en poder del docente orientador. Las realizaciones “en borrador” no serán consideradas como válidas; tampoco podrán ser aprobadas en el momento previo a la clase.

En cada plan de clase, debe especificarse: Nº de clase, área, tema, objetivos, contenidos, actividades, estrategias metodológicas, recursos materiales, evaluación, bibliografía consultada, de acuerdo a las indicaciones del profesor a cargo. En el caso del proyecto, se deberán completar los ítems enumerados en la ficha de cátedra indicada.

Cada plan para ser aprobado debe dar cuenta de la apropiación clara de los contenidos a enseñar por parte del practicante.

Las planificaciones deberán estar aprobadas por el profesor de prácticas o por el docente orientador 48 horas antes de su implementación. Caso contrario, el alumnos no podrán dar sus prácticas.

El profesor de seguimiento suspenderá la intervención didáctica del alumno si comprueba la falta de la firma de la docente, pues interpretará que ella desconoce o no está de acuerdo con lo planificado por el alumno.

Todo practicante deberá preparar el material didáctico que considere pertinente, fuera del contexto del aula donde realizará la práctica. El material se adecuará a los objetivos establecidos en el proyecto y al Diseño Curricular vigente. Se sugiere que a los efectos de ser evaluada su pertinencia y adecuación, sea presentada al docente orientador una muestra del mismo para su aprobación.

El material didáctico debe ser claro, suficiente en cantidad y en el caso de contener textos, éstos deben poder leerse desde los últimos bancos del aula.

Si algún informe, o plan de clase debiera re-hacerse, deberán entregarse el que fue corregido por la profesora de la práctica, y la copia original con sus indicaciones o correcciones.

Las planificaciones no serán aprobadas, si presentan errores ortográficos, gramaticales o de contenido.

46

Las actividades deben seleccionarse de acuerdo con los objetivos fijados en cada planificación.

VI. CONSIDERACIONES A TENER EN CUENTA PARA LAS PRÁCTICAS 1.

Si hubiere algún inconveniente en las instituciones en que se realicen las prácticas (falta de docente, paro, falta generalizada de alumnos u otras situaciones impredecibles) el alumno deberá informar a las profesoras de la práctica antes de tomar cualquier decisión. Cada docente de Práctica establecerá medios de comunicación con los residentes para que ellos puedan cumplir con estos requisitos.

2.

Para que la práctica se lleve a cabo, debe estar presente entre el 50 y el 65 % del curso, acordando esto con el profesor orientador debido a las características propias de los cursos.

3.

Los días de lluvia, los alumnos deberán concurrir a sus observaciones/ prácticas, sin excepciones, salvo que las inclemencias del día así lo justifiquen.

4.

No se permite comer / beber / hacer uso del celular en las aulas.

5.

El alumno podrá comunicarse con el profesor orientador sólo en la forma que este se lo indique, en el caso que este solicite que solo sea en la escuela de destino. No se permitirá llamar al docente orientador por teléfono celular. Y en todo caso, será el docente quien eventualmente se comunicará con los alumnos.

6.

Antes de comenzar con las observaciones y/o prácticas la institución de destino podrá solicitar a los alumnos que concurran a una entrevista con la dirección del nivel/ departamento de la escuela destino o una instancia de presentación que permitirá establecer vínculos entre las escuelas asociadas y todos los actores involucrados en el proceso de Práctica y/o Residencia.

7.

Sólo pueden ingresar a las aulas los alumnos que previamente se hayan inscripto como observadores o practicantes.

8.

No se permite ingresar a las aulas una vez comenzada la clase, por lo que deben presentarse 10 minutos antes del inicio de la misma.

Carlos Maschwitz Group Diagnosis: STUDENT TEACHER’S NAME: Johanna Rebuffo STUDENT TEACHER’S NAME: Jimena Rinaldi INSTITUTION: Maschwitz English School COOPERATING TEACHER: Natalia COURSE: 2nd Year Secondary School 2nd Year – Maschwitz English School Students Diagnosis Report The group is made up of 27 students, 17 boys and 10 girls, who are between the ages of 14 to 15. These students are very friendly and somewhat competitive. They have a broad understanding of the language, though some students sometimes need some intervention in Spanish.

The students in this class are quite talkative so the teacher has to ask for them to work quietly repeatedly throughout the period. There are a few boys who are rather disruptive. Students work during class using their students’ books and workbooks. Once they complete an activity, they usually correct it all together orally and taking turns to come to the board.

There are a few students who seem to have acquired a deeper understanding and use of the language, as they always know what is being asked for them to do and are eager to participate orally in class as well.

The teacher communicates with her students mostly in English, translating certain content into Spanish. Instructions are always given in English.

The classroom The classroom is big enough for all the students’ desks and chairs to fit comfortably in.

These are arranged in three rows facing forward, where the board and the teacher’s desk are located.

The classroom has large windows with curtains facing the street, and without any curtains facing the playground. There is only one poster on the wall next to the door, which are in Spanish. There is also a clock above the board.

COMMUNICATION: language will be used for students to understand the topic at hand as well as for them to be able to express themselves. We will interact orally through discussions and topic presentations using vocabulary related to energy. Student participation will be highly encouraged.

CULTURE: context will be taken into account so as to involve every single student throughout every lesson, encouraging participation, and raising student awareness about the role they play in the daily use of energy.

COGNITION: students will actively participate during each class, using real-to-life activities to evaluate situations and make informed decisions through different critical thinking skills.

46

CONTENT: material will be especially made for the tasks and topics dealt with during the lessons, taking into consideration student needs and interests. The aim of these tasks will be to make a distinction between renewable and non-renewable energy sources, and acquire knowledge of the different sources of renewable energy sources, focusing on two of these sources. The importance of avoiding energy wasting habits will be highlighted.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: Present Continuous; Present Simple; phrasal verbs; adverbs of time.

GENERAL OBJECTIVES: By the end of the unit, students will: · Develop their oral skills through students’ interaction. · Gain new vocabulary related to renewable resources. · Improve their oral skills. . Understand what energy is, that it appears in different forms, and can move (be transferred) and change (be transformed). . Recognize and understand interrelationships among science, technology, and human activity, and how they can affect the world. . Explore how energy is converted. . Investigate renewable technologies: wind, water, biomass, solar.

TASKS/ OUTCOMES: Real-to-life products that integrate the learning that has taken place up to a certain moment along the unit. There should be several instances of outcomes. These instances should be used to assess students along the learning process. They should prevail in our classes. Matching activities are placed in quadrant 1.

EVALUATION: Apart from the assessment stemming from the outcomes, students will be evaluated by means of a formal test in agreement with the cooperating teacher.

MACROSKILLS: reading, listening, speaking, writing.

AUTHENTIC MATERIAL: Video Introducing the Topic.

PROCEDURE/ DEVELOPMENT : 1. DECODIFICATION/CLASS DISCUSSION Revision: (10 minutes) The teacher will ask them if they remember what they saw with Miss Johana.

The teacher will write on the board the words that students will say (ENERGY/RENEWABLE/NON-RENEWABLE/ SOLAR ENERGY) and she will ask them which energies were Renewable (wind/water/solar) and which Non Renewable.

Activity 1: (20 minutes) Then the teacher will tell them that they will have to guess the topic by decoding words. The teacher will show them a code of numbers and explain them how it works. Then she will give them a photocopy with the code and the words that they have to decode. In pairs, they will have to write down the words and try to guess the topic.

Once the students guessed the Topic, the teacher will ask them the following questions: Have you ever felt a strong wind?

What could you do with a steady, strong wind? (Possible answers: Fly a kite, sail a boat, dry laundry on a line, turn a windmill, open the window to cool or air out your house, etc.)

When we get wind to do something for us, we are making it work. Who remembers the definition of energy? (Answer: Energy is when something does work.)

Is wind an energy source?

2. DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES (MAIN FOCUS ON THE CONTENT) Activity 2: 15 minutes Students will have to read the meanings and place the words they decoded in the right definitions.

Match the words with the meaning:

46

1-air in natural motion, as that moving horizontally at any velocity alongthe earth's surface 2-The collection of physical effects related to the force and motion ofelectrically charged particles, typically electrons, through or acrossmatter and space.

3-any of various machines having a rotor, usually with vanes or blades,driven by the air 4-the capacity for vigorous activity; available power 5-Ecology. the air, water, minerals, organisms, and all other external factors The teacher will check the answers orally.

Activity 3: 20 minutes The teacher will show a video to introduce students how wind energy work. And will tell them to pay attention because after that they will have to do an activity about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQpbTTGe_gk After watching the video, the teacher will ask them what was the video about and we will make a Web map about it on the board. They will copy it in their binders.

Then, the teacher will give them a chart in which students will have to classify the words in advantages or disadvantages of wind energy. We will check it orally.

PROS (Advantages)

46

CONS (Disadvantages)

Renewable energy source/ Noisy/ Hazardous to birds/ No pollution/ Will not run out/ Wind is only available at certain times/ Free energy/ Safer and cleaner air/ Its location

Activity 4: 30 minutes The teacher will show them a conversation of two friends about Global warming. Students will read it aloud.

Then the teacher will explain to students that in pairs, they will have to create a Dialogue between two friends talking about Wind Energy by using the wind facts and the vocabulary that we already worked with.

Sarah: Hello! How are you?

Dr. Herbert: I am fine and what about you?

Sarah: I am fine too. But why do you look so worried, my dear friend?

Dr. Herbert: No, I am not worried at all. I am just thinking about the causes of global warming and its harmful effect.

Sarah: Oh, I see. It is really a much talked issue in the present world. But I do not know much about it.

What is global warming?

Dr. Herbert: Oh, yes! Global warming is the gradual increase of world's temperature. The greenhouse effect is the gradual warming of the air around the earth as a result of heat being trapped by environmental pollution. It is predicted that by midway through the next century world temperatures may rise by as much as 4á´źc.

Sarah: What will happen then if temperature rises by as much as 4á´źc?

Dr. Herbert: This will greatly reduce mankind's ability to grow food and damage wildlife and wilderness.

46

Sarah: Oh, my God! I see a horrible situation is waiting for us due to global warming.

Dr. Herbert: Yes, indeed! Besides, due to global warming, the ice in the Polar Regions will melt. This will naturally raise the sea level of water and flood coastal areas.

Sarah: Really global warming is a great threat for our existence in this world. We must work to stop this global warming. How can we stop global warming?

Dr. Herbert: We have to work to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide and plant trees more and more to stop this global warming.

Then we will share some of the productions.

3. CLOSURE: Activity 5: 30 minutes The teacher will show students different ways of catching others’ attentions and communicate important messages.

A brochure:

A poster:

After that, the teacher will separate students in groups and will ask them to discuss and think how they can transmit what they know about wind energy to the other students of the school. (the teacher will suggest examples such as a Brochure or a poster) The teacher will provide them the materials needed.

Once they finished, each group will come to the front and share what they did.

Activity 6: 10 minutes The teacher will tell the students to write a brief paragraph (50-80 words) about how they felt doing the activity.

EXTRA ACTIVITIES: The teacher will give them a Searchword Puzzle with the words of the new vocabulary.

46

Create your own Searchword Puzzle!!

EVALUATION CRITERIA ● The student can define wind energy. ● The student can identify advantages and disadvantages of the different energy sources. ● The student can explain and talk about the topic.

ISFD Nº 55 Teaching Practicum IV Student’s teacher: Jimena Rinaldi Final Reflection of my classes (Carlos Maschwitz)

46

On the observation classes I felt nervous because I thought that being in front of a class of those secondary school children would be difficult. Apart from that, I never worked in a Secondary school and I did not know how I was going to deliver my lessons.

When I delivered my lessons, the students worked very well with the activities and they engaged with every lesson. But there was a group of boys that misbehaved and that did not let the lesson flow as I expected. There was an interruption of the lesson because they did not stop bothering. I believe I could have tried in another way instead of waiting that the other teachers help me. Of course, I did the best I could and besides these boys had serious problems of behavior in the school.

Apart from that inconvenient, I felt relaxed and I enjoyed every moment of my practice. I realized that in one of the Planning there was too much reading and less engaging activities, I hope not to make that mistake again in the following planning.

ISFD Nº 55 Teaching Practicum IV Student: Jimena Rinaldi Feedback Johanna Rebuffo’s Class 1

46

Carlos Maschwitz Johanna Rebuffo started the lesson with a video about the natural resources. The teacher elicited information from the students to check comprehension. The n Johanna asked the following questions: Were you aware of the different types of energy sources before watching this video? What types of energy sources could you see in the video? Can you explain the main difference between the two? Where do we get energy from? Can you name the type of energy we are using in this classroom?

Then the teacher and the class brainstormed on ideas and definitions for renewable and non-renewable energy sources as the teacher wrote them down on the board.

The teacher then handed out a worksheet for them to complete. On it, they had to define renewable and non-renewable energy using the information from the video and the terms on the board. The students were really engaged.

To show students the impact of non-renewable energy sources, the teacher used the Popcorn Activity: The students were really engaged with this activity because it was original and fun.

They had a very good time and the the teacher showed. As a close-up to the Popcorn Activity, the teacher and students discussed how the students acted in “using” the resource; any waste that occurred (popcorn dropped on the floor); whether any thought was given to students coming afterwards; the degraded quality of popcorn towards the end showed in a graphic way how resources are wasted. The activities were suitable for the students’ level and they were participating in every activity. The activities were explained in a proper way and when Johanna spoke, all the students were listening. The students seemed very interested in the natural resource project that the teacher presented. They understood all the explanations. It was a very nice lesson.

Feedback Johanna Rebuffo’s Class 2 Carlos Maschwitz The teacher began the lesson using a PowerPoint presentation to engage students through a Visible Thinking Routine: Zoom-in.

Johanna displayed a section of an image and asked students questions such as: what do you see? What do you think is going on here? Can you make any connections?

Have you noticed‌? Then, other sections of the image were gradually displayed until the entire image is displayed. The students were encouraged by the teacher to discuss what they observed. The students showed interest in this activity and Johanna elicited information from them in a different way. After that, the teacher a video introducing solar energy and used the information students remembered from the video to brainstorm on pros and cons of solar energy on the board. The teacher discussed the information and the students participated.

Then the teacher explained the procedure they would have to follow in order to build their own solar ovens by a PowerPoint presentation.

The students worked in groups and the teacher provided all the materials needed.

Besides, she monitored and helped students with their doubts.

As a close-up to the Solar Oven Activity, the teacher elicited information from students regarding energy, heat and storage.

The students seemed interested and focused on the activity. The following lesson, some of them showed a picture of a food they cooked to the teacher and they showed themselves satisfied with the results.

4th Year – Escuela de Enseñanaza Secundaria N°4 Students Diagnosis Report The group is made up of 27 students, 19 girls and 9 boys, who are between the ages of 13 to 15. These students are respectful and friendly. They lack deep understanding of the language; therefore, they need constant intervention in Spanish.

The students in this class are quite talkative so the teacher has to ask for them to work quietly repeatedly throughout the period. There are a few students who do not show interest toward the subject at all and prefer to chat among themselves. Most of the students are engaged in the activities during the lesson though they remain quiet with the exception of just a couple who willingly speak up and participate orally. Due to their limited understanding of the English language, the teacher continually uses Spanish to give directions, translate the text and relate the topic to their lives and context. Students work during class using their students’ booklets and bilingual dictionaries, though these are quite inadequate. Once they complete an activity, they usually correct it all together orally and taking turns. Sometimes, students do not work during class because they take this time to prepare to sit for their pending exams.

The teacher communicates with her students mostly in Spanish, as translation plays an important role during the lesson. Instructions are always given in English and Spanish.

The classroom The classroom is very large and comfortable with more than enough room for all the students’ desks and chairs to fit comfortably in, even allowing for additional free space in the front of the classroom. The desks are arranged in four rows facing forward, where the board and the teacher’s desk are located.

The classroom has large windows facing the street, as well as windows facing the hallway indoors. There are several posters on the walls, both in Spanish and in English.

There is also a projector fixed to the ceiling and a white wall for it to project on. In addition, there are also speakers available.

Final Reflection of my classes E.E.S. N° 4, Maschwitz My experience in this Secondary was very enriching and I could fulfill my expectations.

At the beginning I was really worried because they were not used to speak in English all the time, they did not like reading aloud because they did not know how to pronounce the words, and of course, they did not speak or understand English easily. There was one boy in particular who worried us because of his attitude. He did not participate and he did not care anything about it. Not only that, he spoke loudly and interrupted all the time. But to my surprise, the group reacted in a very different way. They engaged and tried to understand every lesson. I enjoyed with them every activity and I felt comfortable with them.

I was surprised of myself, these teens who do not care about English were paying attention to me and trying to solve the activities. Even the boy who we were so worried about, he participates and read! I felt so proud of them when they started reading, and I strongly believe this happened because I lowered their affective filter.

This situation was amazing, I learnt a lot from them and I felt fulfilled.

Feedback Johanna Rebuffo’s Class 1 E.E.S. N° 4, Maschwitz The teacher showed a short introductory YouTube Video presenting the different types of media and after that, she elicited information from the students to check comprehension.

After the discussion, the teacher showed another brief YouTube Video illustrating how technology progressed through time: Carousel of Progress.

And she asked them: What changes can you see in the video? What changes specifically related to media did you notice? What sources do you use to access the news and to find information about current events?

Johanna encouraged them to discuss the following news sources: Twitter, online media and news sites, television news, radio, and newspapers all together.

After that, Johana brainstormed on ideas for media and wrote them down on the board in order to arrive at a single definition.

The teacher guided students through a brainstorm about similarities and differences between newspapers, radio, and television. She will drew a Three-Circle Venn Diagram on the board, and labeled each circle as either “Newspaper,” “Radio,” or “Television.”

Then she asked students to complete their own Three-Circle Venn Diagram. On it, they had to take into account the sources they just reviewed and determine what the similarities and differences between them. Students worked hard and they has very good productions. Johanna could elicit information from them with a new kind of activity and they did it the best they could. They were very motivated.

Then the teacher gave each student a handout and explain the Unit Assignment: What is my Media Consumption?

For four weeks, students has to use the provided chart and keep track of shows, movies, ads, articles, news stories, anything in the media that they pay attention to regularly, and media items that happened to grab their attention. They will use this log to record their habits and count the amount of hours they spend in front of a screen.

Feedback Johanna Rebuffo’s Class 2 E.E.S. N° 4, Maschwitz

The teacher showed a YouTube Video showing how technology has evolved through time.

Then Johanna elicited information from the students to check comprehension. She recorded the results on the board.

The teacher showed a Power Point Presentation about who invented the computer, Charles Babbage. The information mentioned was recorded on the board. Students also copied it onto their folders.

The teacher then showed students an encyclopedia. She read an outdated entry for computer and held a brief discussion of computers back in the day and now.

The teacher asked students if they could think of any other inventions that changed the way we work and live. An example might be the sewing machine, which, originally, was mechanical, rather than electric, and had to be operated by a foot pedal. Another might be the phonograph, which evolved into the CD player. She showed a PowerPoint presentation with such inventions.

The teacher explained that in pairs, students had to Select a common, non-electric household item that they believed was important. They were engaged.

Next, there was a class discussion about how the activity applies to computers and how they evolved and continue to evolve. The students showed interest and they paid attention. Of course they spoke in Spanish when they participated.

Then the teacher showed a short video showing them the changes the computer has undergone to reach its current condition. And the teacher asked questions such as What did you see? What changes could you notice? Which do you think was the most dramatic change the computer has gone through? What do we use computers today for?

The results were recorded on the board and onto students’ folders. It was surprising how students worked even though they could not understand all the details. They showed how important is to give students the necessary tools to work. They enjoyed it a lot.

Johanna changed the project of the Media Consumption and took this decision wisely because the students were not interested about it and they did not bring the information asked.

Feedback Johanna Rebuffo’s Class 3 E.E.S. N° 4, Maschwitz

The teacher started the lesson from other perspective. The students seemed to be very engaged about it. She showed moving videos to reflect from another point of view the use of the technology in our life. Johanna used a Visible Thinking Routine and made the students think. They had to analyze some pictures and write a word, a feeling and a drawing that characterize it. The students participated and were very motivated. It was an original activity and they noticed it. They loved to express their feelings and they had a very interesting discuss about it.

The students’ productions and the atmosphere of the classroom manifested the teacher’s work and analysis because she realized that the final project was not proper for this group and she changed it immediately, making a suitable planning for the group.

They felt comfortable and motivated until the end. The teacher’s attitude was suitable for the situation. She made a wise decision at the right moment.
