Fieldwork Week !

This week we have been preparing for field work and what it will be like when we meet the students we will be working with for the semester. We have worked in our groups to come up with About me activities and we have also worked in our groups to present slides we have made in front of the class which to me is very good practice for what it will be like when we are in front of the class teaching. We were able to work on our communication skills and prepare who will speak first and last, we worked together to put our ideas into slides and we were able to practice speaking in front of the class and asking them questions when their is silence. We were also informed with information about what it is we need to fix when we speak to the class, clear loud voices and eye contact is important, also many of us need to work on uncrossing our arms when we speak and opening up to the class so it doesn't appear that we are nervous to speak in front of everyone. I am excited for fieldwork and i think it is a great opportunity for each of us to experience teaching the class together and coming up with different lessons and activities for everyone,  Tomorrow should be a fun first day!!
