November 7th, Reflection

Positive points: For the vocabulary ı needed to teach, ı had both prepared concept checking questions and questions to help me elicit knowledge from the students. I think it worked very well,both because ı didnt resorted to Turkish  having thought about how to make the vocabulary clear by eliciting and giving the examples, and because it noticably increased STT. They seemed less bored,too.

Negative Points: I couldnt make a smooth connection between the activitiesWhen ı just give instructions for the next activity without connecting one to the another, they seem lost and they dont like it. They want what they are engaged with to make sense. So ı should be more careful about the transitions and come up with some ideas to connect the activities because the book itself doesnt give it.
