Tuesday, September 22nd

On September 22nd, I had my first class observation with Andrew Wilson. This was his 9 am grammar class for Group 2. Andrew started the class with introductions by everyone from the class. He then had the class take out their homework assignment. This assignment involved writing and answering an advice question, in the style of an advice column. After having the class share a few examples, Andrew moved on to the subject of superlatives. In the previous class, they discussed the difference of adjectives between two people. In this lesson, Andrew had the class, including myself, use an adjective (pretty, good, smart) and use it to describe someone in comparison to three or more people (prettiest, best, smartest). Andrew then passed back graded tests to the students. He reviewed some questions that were frequently missed and the class had the opportunity to ask questions on what they had gotten wrong. For the last part of class, Andrew had students share some descriptions he had them write the previous class. This involved each person selecting another student in class and describing that person in a few statements. Afterwards, the class would guess who the description was about. Andrew also wrote some of the examples on the board and corrected the grammar.
