APPENDIX 3: POST OBSERVATION STUDENT
TEACHER’S SELF-EVALUATION FORM (Journal)

Write a reflection about the classes you oriented this week (bear in mind the following aspects: what you planned, what you did, and what you would do differently if you were to teach your lessons again). Give examples and descriptions of those situations that, in your view, are relevant to your learning experience.

We unit we are now working on is “giving dates” which basically contains days, months and seasons, in the first class, I used the color theory which worked wonders, students were very interested in doing something else that being just sat for about two hours coloring or doing templates, the idea to use the color theory meant that the connection they did was stronger because they got a clue for completing the task which was to organize the months chronologically, they also seemed to be very motivated with the competition I did, I will change a bit this activity by just giving the team winner either a candy or something else. The song I used was basically chosen at a very last moment however it was good and funny and easy for students to sing, they even liked it so much that they wanted to record the dance steps in the song in a video format for us to watch in the classroom next class. In the while activity, they felt a bit confused I will do this activity differently by giving them even more examples than the ones we gave, and I will also change the way of presenting the sentences, they showed them to me and that was all, on another occasion they will have to pass to the whiteboard and write their sentences. Even though I thought the post-activity was difficult for them, they could do it with very little mistakes that then were fix by writing the months on the board.

We continued working on “giving dates Unit”, in this lesson I was deeply focused in months writing, which meant that days and seasons were left out of the lesson, I will change this a little bit differently, I will play a video and then introduce them to the days again even smoother, the idea of competing again work perfectly, they seem to like a lot to compete, this time I used my own advice and gave some candies to the winner group, I planned that they decorated their notebook page with some representative drawings of each month, but they did not get my message and most of them drew things out of context like dinosaurs and princesses, I will try to make my instructions clearer in future lessons.
The post-reading activity was very funny, they spent some minutes in an alphabet soup and they actually enjoyed a lot this activity.

We unit we are now working on is “giving dates” which basically contains days, months and seasons, this time, we will be focused on days, but the warming up activity was built up around the months in order not to forget them, it was very funny, but as they were some students wearing glasses, I had to change the dynamic of the game, as the color theory helped me a lot in the first lesson, I used it again with the days, as the days are only 7 those were even easier for students to recognize, the short spelling competition created some discussions in the classroom, so next time I will try to the competition by passing one group at the time and not both at the same time. For the while activity, this time, they felt more secure, they had to complete some phrases following certain examples I gave, I tried to be walking in the classroom during the whole task and this allowed students to do a lot of questions which helped them a lot. For the post-activity, they were very frightened because it was the first time they faced the writing of the days, but I was next to them and if they felt very lost I tried to helped them by or spelling or pronouncing the exact day.

Thinking about "My patients are dying. But it’s their right to keep going"

Patients right to keep fighting This article got me! It was really hard to go through it, I felt as if the writer were talking to me, I couldn't stop thinking about one of my grandparents suffering from a terrible disease. It was pretty obvious doctor was totally in agreement, but at the same time he was totally scared for his patients suffering: " This leaves me in an uncomfortable state: caught between my medical recommendation to pursue less aggressive care and my patient’s primal desire to rid his body of cancer " But even though for doctors, it is difficult to accept the different changes and the aftermath that chemical procedures can make: "She is only 34 years old, but after two rounds of chemotherapy, her youth is steadily leaving her ." It is sad knowing that people are suffering from these terrible diseases just like Cancer, but the worst of all is knowing that sometimes treatment is worse than illness itself, a clear example of agreement on...
