And there is one more left!!

Mission 3 has been completed last Wednesday and i am so surprised how fast this period has gone so far!! i always say "Time is your worst enemy", and out of a sudden, i find myself stuck in the middle of tons of work,presentations and endless homework to be delivered quite soon :S, it´s just crazy!! but somehow it´s good to be under a huge pression so that you can give your best shot and at the end, the final outcome seems gratifying for you =)...
Well, moving to my weekly duty, i think Wednesday class was primarly based on a reading, stuff related with PDP and some good chat with the students, nothing that relevant happened i guess... Criss´s lesson plan was launched for the 1st time and i had to start it....Regardless a reading activity seems to be boring and annoying, i tried to make it different. I know most of the people here ESA don´t like to read not even write, but i have learnt there are many alternatives in which you can cheer others to start like and enjoy  these wonderful 2 habits, therefore, i had the students  guess the main essence of the reading  just by skimming the title only. Since they are very smart, they figured the reading was related with what they had thought previously. =)After reading aloud  (boys and girls separated from one another), unknown words were found, a following exercise was correctly done and out of the blue my time had ended!!!
Furthermore, there is still something i would like to share , do not make fun of me, though!! When the class was over, i gave my weekly farewell to the guys jeje and as all the past weeks they have kindly said "bye teacher, thank you.........." but this time something curious happened; as soon as i approached the door i heard something such as : "bye bye teacher, we love you " and i was like -----> :O, i must point out that they were not rude nor disrespectful towards me, but oh well i took this in the good sense !! but i can`t help saying they made me blush  jijijiji....fortunately they did not see my face!!!!
Feedback has not been provided since the 1st time nor grades, consequently i feel blind regarding to my scores. =( I think i did a great job since nobody got bored despite the class was all about the reading (as  what i noticed!!) but nobody knows whether i am moving forward or backwards.

cheers

Hello Bambola!!!! I had a good time reading your entry because you are so funny sometimes hahaha. i liked when you mention that you are trying to do things differently because that means that you are improving day after day. You made laugh with that experience with your students, but do not feel ashamed about that because sometimes students are so expressive and if they told you that it is because they felt it... About your feedback do not worry about just feel satisfied with the work you make.... well done... see ya Bambola!!!!!!!!
