Teaching Practice, 3rd period

Hi, classmates, I had my first teaching practice class. I was a little nervous since I arrived early and there were some girls who seemed to be kind of offensive. I thought that it was going to be difficult to interact with them. After some other girls arrived, I realized that I knew some of the girls because they were my classmates before. I introduced myself and tried to make a kind of rapport with them to feel comfortable with the group. After that, I started the warm up activity about past tense. I asked them to make a circle, some of the girls seemed not to like the idea of standying up, and gave one of them a wool ball. I asked them to pass the ball and I made a noise and when I stopped the noise they said a verb in present and in past. They seemed to like to activity. Later, I started the introduction of the topic, and gave them a picture to some of them. I asked them to think or write an affirmative sentence in past tense using that picture. They had go to the front and paste the picture and write the sentence next to the picture. We checked the sentences and repeated as well. I made them to think and write the same sentences in negative and interrogative form, there was only one group that did answer most of the questions, but the other group had some doughts. They asked me some questions about the sentences and I helped them kindly. After that, I made them to practice orally, I gave them some clues to follow the structure of an affirmative, negative or interrogative sentence. They did a good job. When I finished with the clues, I thanked them for their participation and finished the class. As a conclusion I can say that, it is a good group, but it is divided in one group that know more than the other one. I didn´t know this at first, but the teacher let me knew it after class. So, I will try to be more fair with the ones that have less knowledge.
