My Tips for Teaching
This year I really like teaching my students in Frenkel school. I would like to share with you a few methods and activities that I use with my students.
I believe that if my lessons interest me they will interest my students as well. As teachers, we have to find our strength , hobbies and interests and bring them into class. This way the students can feel the connection and passion that their teacher has for the lesson and this might help them want to be more involved.
I really like songs and singing. This is why I start every lesson with a song. Before every unit, I look up on YouTube different songs that connect to the vocabulary and topics of the unit. I make up different motions that go with the words and teach them to the students. This takes up the first five minutes of the lesson but helps the students with the skill of speaking. They learn to say the words with the correct pronunciation. They love to be in movement. After getting out their energy at the beginning of the lesson, the students can be more focused on learning.
I really like seeing my kids playing games and learning. I discover many things about them while observing them in action. It also makes learning fun and gives me a good feeling as a teacher when I see that my students are enjoying my class. That is why every time I teach new vocabulary I always make sure to include a game. This way the students always know that it is "worth it" for them to make an effort to remember the words because then they will succeed in the game.
Good luck and I hope this post can help you in your teaching!
