Public school experience
This blog is per each class during the week.
On Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, we start with a class that is English Language Development (ELD) in this class, students from the first, second and third grades are together. The students watch a video and the teacher asks them what the video teach them. Next they respond after that the students talk to each other. This class differs based on student’s language levels. This class is important because it help students in different level learn to communicate in English language. This program is focus in help the students to development in English language skill.  I think that is program can help students ELS to improve their speaking because they interact with English speaker.
Next to the (ELD) the teacher asks the students what is the goal for today or what do they share with others, she takes a puppet and passes it to every student and some students talk about the goal for today.  Then the teacher rings a bell and gives them the instructions, and start the Reading class.  

The Reading´s class its every day, the teacher to catch the attention with a video and they dance along the video. After the teacher introduce the lesson, she takes a book and reads it and tell them “what the story can help them become better people in many ways”. the students look for their books according to the level of reading of each child, the children are grouped in groups of two (back to back) it gives them a time for reading. (At that time the teacher practices reading with students who need to improve in reading) the following is each students give recommendations book that they love it to classmates. The teacher asks them to show the book that they read, she writes in her notebook and using the technology and she write the topic “what did teach them the book that the students read” and the students write about the topic. Then the student work individual and the students write how to identify the moral of the stories.  I love this activity that students read in group of two back to back, because each student can help each other, I will use this activity to improve in language learning in my classroom.

The class of Read Aloud is every day, the teacher begins with introducing book´s cover and asks them what they see and tells them the name of the author and the topic that the book is about. The teacher reads the book with some words covered, so the student could be tell which word is covered. Then the teacher reads it together with them. And then he asks them questions about reading, then the teacher write the title, the category of the book “this book is about… the main character” then the student write each sentences, but they use their favorite book.  When the student finishes doing the activity, they can read the books in their apps and do the activities on it.

The writing class is every day, she introduces the theme in this week was to write about the family, she introduces the family of her and then writes three simple sentences using technology and each student has to write about their family.
Those are some topics for this week what did you do on weekend with your family? How many family you have?  What do you do with your family?
She reviews but does not take into account the writing only the words that are stuck around the walls. After some children go and explain what they wrote and others tell him what his mistake (capital letter, period) was if they did not write much or if they wrote enough. I can use this technique because the students can write short sentences every day and they can improve their writing skill.

The Iceberg

The Iceberg The iceberg was the topic in the session with Dr. Leyah Bergman-Lanier. She talked about the cultural iceberg ... Personally, it was very interesting, to regain control over this topic. I have loved working with teachers from different regions of the Republic of Panama here in Arkansas, it has taught me to have patience and have an ability to deal with each of the invisible personalities of the iceberg. On the other hand, to understand or accept to reflect on iceberg culture is to recognize that there are deep things and it is an experience to shape my behavior and try to understand that there is a part of our personality that is very different from the others and that in many In some cases, cultural groups may share some main values ​​ and they may be interpreted differently according to what they have learned from each group or their daily situations. In the case of my students, in some occasions I only see what I want them to learn, (the visible part) but when I kn...
