My last class got a bit chaotic. I gave students a task to open the brackets but didn't monitor the time. Some finished quickly and others were still working., Amy provided a lot of activities for her students: opening the brackets, filling in the gaps, choosing the correct option, playing Kahoot and reading a text. But she decided not to give students debates as there was no time for this task., Adam was aware that some of his students weren't responsible enough to compare the answer in pairs so he thought it would be better to ask students to read them out loud to ensure that everyone knew the correct answers., There were a lot of tasks in the plan for speaking practice (discussing questions, describing the pictures and role plays). In pursuit of completing every single activity, a teacher quickly moved between tasks without smooth transitions. The class felt disjointed, but at least she covered everything., It was a well-structured lesson plan. Mira anticipated all possible problems and used engaging lead-ins. She had enough time for production; however, there was one thing she neglected: students didn’t analyse and correct their own mistakes., It was a vocabulary lesson. There were 9 students in class and every time there was a task for discussion, Tina nominated a particular student to express their opinion, while others were waiting for their turn. As a result she failed to cover much of the planned material.
