Week 11: English Lab

Week 11
Date: Monday, September 30th to Thursday, October 3rd, 2019
Topic: English lab

     On Monday, I stayed with 10°14 at the English Lab. The girls worked on their Projects which consists in chosing a song from a given list of 80s and 90s. They had to listen to the song and write a short biography about the singer or lead singer of the band. Besides that, they have to give a performance by October 21st, wearing customes about their respective singer. That's not all, they also have to design an e-card inviting people to assist to the performance. Students liked this Project, they enjoyed listening to this old-wave but "sticky" songs. Music has an important role in learning a language, students make an unconscious process when listening to the songs and imitating the lyrics (some students look for them). I always learn new words and English structure when listening to music. I think the girls are going to show an excellente performance and the most important aspect is the fact they are going to have fun.

     Sadly, I couldn't go to class on Thursday because I was participating in La Guaca contest carried out at UPB. I had to go and participate in it because I've always wanted to be in this event, and this is my last semester at the university. One, as teacher, has to be involved in another activities, to be part of the community. This is also formation and education.
