Need?’
Using effective materials for teaching and practicing listening and speaking
(Source: Moon, J. (2005) Children Learning English. Oxford: Macmillan Education.p. 135)
Objective:
This task encourages student teachers to consider resources that are effective in teaching
listening and speaking.
Procedure:
You will need the Observation Table: What Materials do I Need?
Think about what a teacher needs to consider in organising language learning activities.
Brainstorm all of the resources you can think of that can be:
Made bought
Choose TWO lessons to observe – make sure that the second one follows the first.
Why/Notes; for example, the purpose of the activity (paired reading, listen and draw,
revising vocabulary, etc.)
2
After the Observation:
Think about each activity now and decide whether it achieved its purpose. How
appropriate were the resources used? If you were to teach this lesson again, what
different resources might you use and why?
First of all in my point of view the students get the right point, in another words the
students achieved the purpose and the outcomes was perfect to their age. It was a fun
lesson she made the English language lesson an art. If I did this lesson may be I will
use videos it is easier and it has some cartoon to watch and they may be will remember
the words of the song from the cartoon.
How did the teacher organize and distribute the materials and what instructions did she
give?
The teacher organized everything from the day before, and she did the same instructions for
most of the activities:
1. Listen to me then sing
2. Repeat after me
3. Read the book quietly
What resources seemed to be used for different interaction patterns? What does this tell
you?
The printed papers, the pictures, that tells me that my MST is the person who remember by
write she used the same to the students who like her
Resources can take a long time to make. What could you do to build resources over time for
topic work? Who could assist with resource making? Why?
