Reflection
The
main aims of this lesson to develop practical skills in vocabulary around the
topics of Healthy Way of Life and Food and in reading to specific information.
The
tasks in section 2 are aimed to remember vocabulary around above-mentioned
topics. Students should classify the words after two criterions: good\bad ways
of life. This type of task requires low order thinking skills. In my opinion,
that`s appropriately to use it at the beginning of the lesson, especially in
low achieving class. Nevertheless, doing these tasks students should analyze
and evaluate (tasks 1-3), give arguments (task 3) and create (to design a
poster - task 2).
The
tasks in section 3 are aimed to develop skills in reading for specific
information.
The
tasks before reading are used to remember and systematize words belonging to
the main theme of a text and to do predicting from a text. In task 1a, students
should classify the names of different fruit and vegetables after their colour.
Remembering doesn`t requires high order thinking skills, but it`s important
preparatory part for applying and summarizing in final tasks. In task 1b,
students predict information from the text. At that, they evaluate information,
so they develop high order thinking skills.
Scanning
of the text requires low order thinking skills. Students check themselves in
their prediction. After reading students do a skimming task. They analyze and summary
the information from the text answering the questions in task 3. This task
belongs to communicative one and requires high order thinking skills.
As
homework students should apply and summery the information they`ve read in the
text writing a diet plan for yourself. Manipulating information requires high
order thinking skills.
In
my judgment, to develop thinking skills by students both the type of task and a
form of doing it are important. That`s why different kinds of students work including
group and pair works are used at the lesson.
