DIDÁCTICA DE LA LENGUA INGLESA

In this class, we talked about how to assess to young learners. The reason we have to evaluate our children is to provide to them and their parents evidence of their progress.   We have to evaluate everything: the different skills, the attitudes and the behaviour and social skill of our pupils. In this class, I have learned about different resources and tools to evaluate our future pupils. For example, rubrics, teacher notes, revise homework, oral and written exams, self-assessment, etc. In my opinion, we have to show our pupils that evaluation is not a bad thing because they are used to be afraid of that word because society have always gave this word a negative meaning.

In the first part of this class, we revise some storytelling of our classmates to realize how important is this stories when you teach to children. It is important to know that you have to adapt the level of the story to our course. In the second part of the class, we talk about the assessment criteria or evaluation. We have talked about it and I have learnt that we have to change the idea the students and ourselves have about the word exam or evaluation. When we talk about this idea we get nervous, worried but it is not true. The evaluation have the aim of giving us the opportunity to improve. We also talk about the internal and external evaluations that was provided in schools. Also, we talk about a new idea that it is new for me. We can evaluate ourselves as a teacher. It is not compulsory but I think that it is a good idea to do it sometimes because it gives you the opportunity to improve your teaching methods in case of not being very suitable.
