A reflection on the lesson.

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zApy3VdXRw A reflection on the lesson we watched and write how you would modify the lesson if you were teaching this group of students. I think if I were the teacher of the class, I would use English most of the time. Because the kids have previous knowledge of the class content and know how to answer the teacher's questions. For example "What color it is ? "the teacher asked, and the students answered it is a banana. when the teacher got the wrong answer she just changed the language to Polish and asked again. I think in this situation we can wait a little bit more and let the student think about it. Also if we want to teach students to know the color in English we can compare the different colors.  After watching this video, I think we should use more English in the class, and use the way based on student-centering. As a teacher we play an assistant role in teaching, more chances we should give our students to speak and practice.

Reflection on Lesson 4 video

I think it was interesting but lack of chances to speak.           What lesson transition strategies does the teacher use?         The teacher used colors to divide students into groups that let students prepare to do next steps.  What teaching aids does the teacher use?        Teacher used a small test to help students understand more and transfer the knowledge that belonged to them.  What would you do differently?        I would like to give more chances to students to speak.

What would you do differently?         I would first divide the students into groups and then ask them to be quiet in their assigned positions until I give further instruction. What is your general reflection on the lesson?       Students were highly engaged, there's no denying that teachers often do fun activities that keep students positively engaged.       There were many activities during the class, but there was less opportunity and a short time for students to participate in each activity.       The teacher spent more time organizing activities such as dividing students into groups, letting students go to the designated location, askin
