I did micro-teaching with Naokofu last week. We taught "Can Anyone Here Me?" I write about my teaching below.
●The objectives of your pre-reading and in-reading activities
I wanted students to think outline of story through pre-reading, and to grasp the story through in-reading. So we used pictures of a shrine, storm, hole and man. And we wanted students to read many times. Though we made students read, we really wanted them to read many times. But we couldn't do it because we had no time.
● The strengths and weaknesses
＊The strength
・We predict to ask students "what words did you hear?" before Mr,Naokofu read the textbook. We wanted them to hear carefully by doing it.
・We wrote handout in English. At first we wrote it in Japanese. But we was given the advice to better to write in English by Scarlet. And we did rewrite. This is time of English lesson. So it was better!
＊The weaknesses
・Chance to make students read the textbook was too few. We wanted them to read by various way.
・I couldn't react to students who don't try to solve questions in handout well. Mr,hall acted the bad boy, but I didn't know what to do.
I was under tension. Especially I couldn't smile well during the class. And I couldn't instruct with clear voice. I found that teaching stress. But I enjoyed the micro-teaching. I could find good point and bad point of my teaching, and I knew many difficulty of teaching. I want to do my best in my practice teaching to not to forget the lesson.
Finally it took many time for our micro-teaching, so other group couldn't use time sufficiently for their teaching. I'm sorry!!!
Thank You for reading. And thank you, Naokofu!!
