Lila Mandela TP#10

Today I worked with Mr. Seo's family: Rayna, Sally, Jennie and Jason. I had a lot of fun working with the kids at the library. We did a fun storytelling exercise where each child would add on to the previous sentence. For example,

     Yesterday, I ate a dinosaur for breakfast. It tasted like roasted apples.


It's a silly, funny sentence to start the tutoring session. I had everyone write a sentence to continue the story and after passing the notebook around three times, we finished our silly story. I would read the sentence each time someone contributed. At the end of making the story, I would mark any errors they made while reading and ask them to correct their errors. I was really excited to see my TEFL class techniques in action. Everyone was engaged in the activity and was eager to contribute to the story. After the corrections, we talked about the school year is arranged in Korea. A new year begins in March, and according to Jennie, the summer break begins in June. I really like working with this group of kids because they're really eager to participate in my activities and they're a pleasure to work with.
