8-A    1. ve 2. ders Öğretmen; Erdi BUGAY 1.ders: Her hafta olduğu gibi bu hafta da ilk ders ödev kontrolüyle geçti. İngilizce Teog Test kitabındaki ödevler kontrol edildi sorular tek tek üstünden geçilip cevaplandırıldı. Hoca yanlış olan soruları anlatıp feedback verdi. Dersi kaynatmaya çalışan birkaç öğrenci var sınıf tarafından da seviliyor bu tipler. Hem derste başarılı hem sınıfta popüler, hocaya karşı da hem esprili hem sevecen bir çocuk var ondan dolayı sınıfta sohbetli esprili bir ders ortamı var. Soru cevaplamanın yanında hocanın da dahil olduğu pek çok alakasız sohbet oluyor arada kızıyor arada gülüyor hoca da espri yapıp karşılık veriyor falan baya saldım çayıra tarzı bir ders planlaması var diyebiliriz  :D 2. ders:  Moonlight kitabına geçtiler.

Öğrencilere testteki paragrafları, diyalogları sesli okutturarak telaffuzlarını kontrol edip düzeltti...

Class: 6B Teacher: Hande Özkan Hour: 2 Materials used in lesson: Hand- outs, Smartboard Subject: Present Perfect Tense Teacher brought hand-outs about aux verbs and asked students to cut the paper and stick it to their notebooks. -Teacher brought extra scissors and glue for students who forgot to bring their own materials. -Teacher gave short and clear instructions and used simplified language throughout the lesson. It took at least 15 mins for students to complete cutting the paper and I think that 15 min could have been used more effectively. If I were in her place, I would ask students to do it at home not to waste 15 mins. Teacher asked students to complete an activity about aux verbs and gave them 10 mins for 24 blanks and then they checked the correct answers all together on the smartboard. There were no time for the last 6 questions... - Teacher answers students' questions right away and I realized that she often uses positive sentences. Instead of saying ...

1. Class: Teacher's Name: Stella Havuçoğlu Grade: 2C Hour: 1 Course Book: Smiles 2 Subjects Covered:Present continuos tense, weather conditions Öncelikle öğretmen derse geldiğinde sınıfta çocuklar arasında bir tartışma vardı. O sorunu çözmeden derse başlamadı. Onlara sakince sorular sordu ve ne olduğunu anlamaya çalıştı. Daha sonra onlara birbirlerinden özür dilemelerini istedi ve derse başladı. Derse ilk olarak video ile başladı. Çocuklar pür dikkat izledi ve onunla ilgili soruları cevaplarken konuyu, yeni başladıklarından dolayı bilemeyip yanlış yaptılar. O anda hemen tahtaya kuralları yazmaya başladı. Şuan ne yapıyorum dedi. Kendinden yola çıkarak şimdiki zamanı anlatmaya, örnekler yazmaya başladı. Gayet başarılıydı. Konuları şimdiki zamandı ve hava durumuyla ilişkili olarak o konuyu ele alıyordu. Tam kar başladı ve çocuklara dışarı bakmalarını söyledi ve karın yağdığını söyledi. Büyük bir şanstı çünkü izlenilen videoda da kar yağıyor ve çocuklar kardan adam yapıyordu...

Teacher's Name: Stella Havuçoğlu Grade: 2C Hours: 4 Course book: Smiles Pupil's Book Subject: Present Continious Tense General Notes: Dersin başında öğrenciler arasındaki bir sorunu çözdü. Sorun çözülmeden derse başlamadı. "Now, at the moment" kelimelerini anlatmak için olağanüstü bir çaba sarf etti. Türkçe kullanmadan 2. Sınıflara bazı kavramların verilmesi zor olabiliyor. Present Continious tense i deductive bir şekilde verdi. Bazi öğrencilerde bir anlam boşluğu olduğunu gördüm. Fakat daha çok etkinlikle sorunun çözülebileceğini düşünüyorum. Ders esnasında kar yağdı. Bütün öğrenciler camlara koştu. Öğretmen kar yağışını izlemelerine izin verdi. Derse tekrar başladiginda çocukların çoğu derse hemen adapte oldu. Bu yüzden öğrencilere bu izni vermesi güzel oldu.

Teacher's Name: Erdi Bugay Grade: 8A Hours: First and second hours Course Book: İngilizce Teog Test Kitabı (ilk saat), Moonlight (ikinci saat) Subjects Covered: Science General Notes: Yine önce ödev kontrolü ama sadece kim yaptı diye bakmayıp aynı zamanda sözel olarak da soruları cevaplıyorlar. Öğrencilerin kitaplıkları dışarda, kitap değiştirmek zorunda olduklarında sınıfta karmaşa meydana geliyor, dışarı çık, kitabı al, gel; tekrar kontrol etmesi zorlaşıyor. Hoca tahtaya bilinmeyen kelimeleri yazıyor ama bunları türkçe anlamları ile veriyor. Exp: hearing impaired-duyma engelli, the people who can't hear or lose hearing ability gibi açıklayabilirdi. Çocuklar texti karışık okudu, sen devam et diyerek çocukların dikkatini çekebildi. Fakat çocukların pronunciation hatalarını directly düzeltiyor, peer correction ya da söylediği şeyi tekrar ederek hatasını fark etmesini sağlayabilir.

Teachers’ Names: Fatma Karakuzey Grade: 2-C  Hour: 1 Subject Cover: Animals General Notes:   Different classes were observed by us, first one was 2-C. In the first place the  teacher was  really friendly and one of her students was ill, and she really cared about him. Students were happy to be there, and their topic was enjoyable. Teacher used technology effectively, but we realized that she does not know all of her student’s names which is not good. Moreover, she had 10 minutes to finish the class, she said what we can do, and then opened a video which was about ‘’have got/has got’’. It was not related to class objectives, it shows that this teacher does not have an extra plan. Apart from these negative sides, her English was good, and she was smiling all the time.

20.02.2018 Teacher's name: Erdi Bugay First and second hours: 8-A Subject covered: would rather/prefer, present perfect tense Comments: Teacher, first, checked the homework in a class time which is a waste of time, but he answered the questions orally and we could understand which one of them made a mistake and teacher repeated that missing point. When he taught present perfect tense, he directly gave the grammar structure on the board and wanted them to copied them on their notebooks. Moreover, he highlighted the time expressions, but gave Turkish meanings of them like just means "henüz" instead of explaining them with examples. When he wrote the structures on the board, he didn't explain anything, and students started to talk with each other. Losing classroom management is his fault because of turning back to the class, but he was yelling them because of the noise.
