  • lesson planning

    LAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

    Kids are tired of Barryfunenglish.com. I dunnnnoo what to do. Like a base for soup... what do i base my lessons off of??!! 

    Maybe more worksheets, video making, and white boards?

    ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    ...Winter camp 5 senses

    See --- Looks like
    Hear --- Sounds like
    Touch --- Feels like
    Smell --- Smells like
    Taste --- Tastes like

    Next semester...

    kindergarten --- listening & reading / writing (letters)
    1st & 2nd basic abc, phonics, pronunciation
    3rd & 4th comparatives / opposites, phonics & diagraphs + vowels
    5th & 6th "how to"... "can i"... "___ hurts", "I need", "manners & slang, grammar & sentence corrections...

    5 senses will be the warmup for next semester.. with multiple choice questions about pictures, sounds, or smells I share.

    I HOPE 1st and 2nd grade like crafts. the new 3rd grade / previous 2nd grade never could sit still with crafts. 

    I WANT AN EASY / FUN LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS OF TALK.

    I feel burnt out creativly. I suck at lesson planning & keeping things interesting. It's been toooooooooo long. If I were to go onto middle school or high school, maybe. but then i'd have more behavioral challenges and level differentiations. MEH.

    Can't wait for my teaching experience to be overrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. (For now).

    When I finish my bachlors & get fluent in Korean, maybe I can go to a Korean art school under scholarship. 

    MY DREAM.
