Week 6 The blue whale power-point


I would like to continue storytelling in English classes.
The title of this story is the blue whale.
Children may prefer to be reminiscent of a blue whale is inserted into Power-Point.
When I have a question and then students say no fish to speak to the reason.
The fish have to breathe in the water, How whales have to breathe in the water?  Students going to answer, drinking the air after come out of the water take a deep breath.
 The same way as above answer questions, a blue whale body's length, weight, teeth, food. etc. Students to answer the challenges in the homework. Students will need to read books on whales. Students should ask the teacher in the course of research that questions.

Week 6 Technology tools for creating student-centered classes

Active participation in discussion is a critical part of second language acquisition for learners. It is not enough for learners to master grammatical rules, vocabulary, word recognition and pronunciation. Learners must move beyond acquiring such skills and enter the realm of an interactive.
In order to build discussion skills it is necessary for students to practice discussing with each other. Therefore, throughout the life of a course, students will be asked to actively with classmates, engaging in English discussions as part of a group and in pairs. To breakdown social barriers that inhibit students to develop discussion skills, teachers can combat shyness with ice-breakers at the very onset of a course. The following ice-breaker asks students to locate other trainees whom posses common qualities. Students sit in a large circle. The student in the center makes a phrase, asking other students if they share a commonality. For example, "The big wind blows for everyone who was born in August." Further details of the game will be demonstrated.
