My first day at school 14.01.13

Today has been my first day at Ignasi Iglesias school. When I have arrived, the head of studied had all the documents prepared for me: the timetable, the work plan, etc.

Then, she has shown me my class for the rest of these five weeks. I will be with the English teacher, who is also the tutor of year 6. My tutor has been very kind and friendly with me, and from the beginning, she has allowed me to participate and to do some activities. For example, in the first Catalan class, I've been writing in the blackboard some ideas of the pupils in order to write a legend. I also have been talking with kids in two English classes: with year four and year six. Children have introduced themselves in English and then, they have asked me some questions in this language as well. I have enjoyed a lot this activity because students have practiced their oral skills. In an Catalan class I have dictated a text so I thing that my first day has been so profitable.

I have already talked with my tutor about the classes I have to plan. We have arranged that I will plan some sessions of year 6 and I will use the book. I'm going to prepare English activities for the rest of the levels so I'm looking forward to observe how kids work and then start teaching.
