Revision Week

Fourth week! Time passed just like the eye blink. I love this day because we come here, this school to see this brilliant students and observe them how they progress.
We learned that this week is revision week so this lesson didn't include so much communication between students and teacher. Students solve the questions from the exercises in the workbook. We help them to do so. Teacher told them they could get help from us if they need. This was the opportunity to communicate with students and make the environment more sincere. We tried to do so and help them as much as we can. This unit in the workbook was completely finished it that day.

Writing Exercises

This is third week and I think we cannot be counted as novice interns because we got used to this school and this internship.
Our teacher told the topic to us before we arrived to class. And it was writing exercises in the textbook for that unit. There were some passages for an example to students to write. They worked in partners. For improving they wrote letter to each other as partners. They read them after. Some of them were really interesting and cheered us up. There were some extra materials and teacher's advice about writings. Teacher gave some homeworks.

When/While

Second week has come at last! We had missed the teacher and the students. Since that winter is coming, the weather is getting cold day by day. But we are lucky our school just has a distance to mettro in aproximately 10 minutes. We finally arrived to our school and meet with our teacher with great attitude towards us. We really like her even if we passed just a one day with her. I say 'we' because I have a internship partner or observation mate;my friend Emrah Madenci.
We came to class together after the small sincere talk with teacher. Students were less surprised to see us his week than last week. I think they are so cool.
I want to talk about today's lesson included. First, teacher asked some questiıons and they talk about the homework given last week. Then it comes to the topic. The topic was really important in English. As we thought it was 'when/while'. Whole class open their notebooks and the page of that topic. Teacher read some explanations about when/while and some students took notes. Students seemed like they know this topic before. They were completely in the lesson. Teacher wanted them to write a story with many sentences includin when/while. It was hard exercise but really beneficial for them. Some of them could write a story. Teacher made them read and corrected mistakes in the sentences. Then, there was a worksheet handed out to students about when/while. It was easy and students solved the questions on their own. We helped some of them. Then the lesson was over. It was a great lesson.
I can say a sentence about my observation today. ' A good English teacher can make you love English.'

Hello again! Today, we will observe the lesson first time this semester with my friend Emrah Madenci. We tried to look as if we are calm but it is obvious that we were really excited. In this last year of the university, I believe internship is great thing to do. We meet with our teacher Emel Koçak. She is really sincere and kind person. We are lucky as interns to have a teacher like her. And then we took the way to her class in that hour. The students were surprised to see us. Emel teacher introduced us to them and they greeted us. It was really exciting even if we sat the bak side of the class.
The subject of that lesson was reading passages. My first notice was the respect between students and the teacher. Attitude of the students towards their teacher was remarkable and admirable. The teacher kindly introduced the topic and she read the first passage. She wanted them listen to her really careully and they exactly did that surprisingly. After that students read the passages and whole class did the exercises together with the teacher. Some of them were looking at us and we tried to help them to solve the questions. Time passed just like a moment but we didn't even notice. It was really great experience in the eve of the being a teacher. I am really excited to wait for a next day we come for observation.
