unit 1

I disagree with statement number 1. I have worked with music for my groups of 10 years old and they liked it, listened it and sang it. I think this happened because i chose songs that they knew and liked.


I agree with the second statement, because it is important that YL know where the lesson is heading. Familiary with the structure of the lesson gives them security and clear guidelines about what is expected of them at different stages of the lesson.

I agree with statement number 3. Some children will finish more quickly that others, up to point, allow for individuals to work at their own speed. But make sure that you achieve our lesson aims this means having extra materials at hand for fast finishers

I disagree with the first statement. Everybody likes singing and dancing, i think it's a good way to teach new vocabulary in order to motivate students to talk and sing. Of course, teacher has to focus attention on student's likes.

I agree with the second statement. All the time, the lesson needs to recycle vocabulary of the previous one. I always start the class with a game, recycling words or grammar, and sometimes finish the clases with a song or with a short and funny activity.

I agree with the third statement. Always give extra activities for the children who finish early. Sometimes, I allow them to be helpers, they encourage the others and in the same time guide them to find out the answers.
