Self Evaluation

Preparation: Forgot to Show Up (1) vs. Every Hair In Place (10) = 6
Technique: Completely Incompetent (1) vs. Flawless Delivery (10) = 5
Engagement: Snoring Loudly (1) vs. Absolutely Riveted (10) = 6

Poise: Charlie Brown (1) vs. Prince (10) = 6
Reflection: “It was ok.” (1) vs. Life-changing Epiphany (10) = 6

Total Score: 34

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): We weren’t sure how attendance would be due to the weather. We had three learners – two return learners who are there almost every week and one new person who was the husband of one of the learners. Sara did a great job of navigating engagement since we had two low-level learners and one high-level one. Great class.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific):
This was a pretty awesome class! We started on time with just 1 learner, the lowest level of the group. At the start of class she told Sofia that she wasn’t at the class last night because she was sick. From this conversation (sofia speaks a little French so was able to find out a little more), we realized that this learner didn’t know the names of body parts so after alphabet practice, we began with that. The other 2 learners came after about the 2nd body part and though they already knew most of the names of everything, there were a few they didn’t know and it was also good review. We did some fun TPR and then moved onto the theme of the class. I had a lot planned but we just did dictation/choral response with the title of the class and then a cloze activity about IWD. I was so excited to work with a poem by Maya Angelou and happy that we were able to get to it. The best part about it was that in the poem, many body parts were mentioned that we had just learned. I had listened to the poem a few times earlier and didn’t even think about it but It was SO amazing. I think everyone agreed :)
