When writing the report, take also into account the teacher’s observation grid. Final report: They should not be just a regurgitation of what is in the report. They should be succinct, and focus on the reader's attention on the most significant aspects of your achievement as you see them. They should indicate your ability to reflect on your performance insightfully and honestly. You might write about - a significant development, in line with what the teacher has said in the report - special opportunities you took up during the practice - special features of the program you developed - areas of strength, or specialisation which you developed or applied - aspects of teaching which you feel are particularly important to you - how the practice has extended your range of experience - your understanding of the complexity of the teacher's role, including extra-curricular commitments - your preparedness and enthusiasm for your first appointment Your writing should be structured coherently, professional in expression and in its use of language, error free, and use an appropriate and positive tone (this does not exclude touches of humour). It should also use gender inclusive language. However, try not to sound like a curriculum statement! If you experienced difficulties and these are reflected in the report, be honest about them, but couch them in terms of being a positive learning experience for you. Write about how you might 'do it differently' in your first appointment. Do not use your comments box to write 'thank-yous' to your supervising teacher and school! However, you can talk about the support and positive learning environment which was provided insofar as these contributed to your success. UNIT ( SKELETON) PLAN

OBSERVATION GUIDE The student teachers will observe along 8 Weeks (16 periods) an associate teacher (cooperating teacher). They are to observe the associate teacher’s roles and make note of classroom organization, management routines and classroom resources. The student teachers are also encouraged to interact with and assist students where they see a need. The student teacher should demonstrate professional initiative in seeking ways to be a helpful person in the classroom. The student teachers will also observe management routines, teaching/learning strategies, forms of teacher assessment, accommodations for special needs learners and use of multimedia. Answer these questions in your observation notebook (not the performance one) to be shared in one of our face to face classes after your 3°rd and 4 th observation week.

The aim of this essay is to show the evaluations on the videos at the platform. The videos are about authentic material, alternative assessment and students project. In these videos we can see different evaluations referring to constructivism. On the first video the teacher evaluates the oral production and fluency of her students using authentic material. On the video we can see different authentic material such as realia (objects), printed texts, images and multimedia. These are tools to develop our classes but they are also a way to evaluate our students productions.in this video the focus is on the material that we choose for students. On the second video the topic is alternative assessment in which you can directly evaluate the learner language skills by using their language to communicate or for a purpose . we must take into account that the evaluation criteria will differ depending on the level and the aim of the lesson. for example, the portfolio is a way to evaluate the progress of students by collecting their material and showing them their progress. On the last video the children make a project of a plane and this is how they are evaluated. The teacher guides them but the idea is theirs. Students are proud of their own progress and teachers too. Finally, the videos used to evaluate the progress of students. That is the aim of constructivism. Every student has a unique way of building their knowledge and a different time for it. Evaluating their progress is the best way to give them a feedback because here we take into account that they are all different and their progress will be different too. The feedback is about the process in which they get into the result and not focus just on the result.

Maimo Natalia Gisel Teaching Practicum 2 Carlos Maschwitz School, Primary Level 02/10/2016 Final Personal Conclusion I have observed First Year Primary English lesson at the Carlos Maschwith School and I have noticed that the teacher´s work there was close similar to the kinder garden teacher. The teacher

has to develop some mother´s instinct with the children and their relationship gets stronger. I could have noticed that the affective filter is almost lower when the teacher does the “mother´s role”. Children learn in a passive way, which means, they are closer to acquire the language than to learn it. I loved the way children learn the language by constructivist methods. The teachers work very hard with constructivist concepts and projects. By this way I can appreciate the fruits of their efforts. I think these methods are very effective with young children and they create a good atmosphere. However, I do not like the lack of physical space that the building has. It conditions the lessons and the student´s play time.
