V. LISTENING,ORAL WORK,READING AND WRITING.

The  experiences that the teacher had  during her teaching practices were claimant.The teaching listening's experience was difficult to deal but successful since the students understood and responded as the way that the teacher said. Although it was hard in the beginning of the teaching practice, the teacher improved her teaching .For example , kids responded in a good way when they were asked to sing the song , and also when they were asked to repeat the word in English after hearing it.

It did work out the theory that the book mentioned about the listening skills.Specially the repeat practice and singing songs .The students were very excited when the teacher told them that they were going to sing a song in English and that they would memorize the lyrics.

About the oral work skills , this skill was more demanding than the listening skills because it required more participation of the students, but not all the students were able to participate in the time that was established in the lesson plan.The reason was the number of students that were in the class. But the teacher tried to  make that all the students tell something during the time it was required .

Even though the students did not have a wide vocabulary , they were excited to talk with the few words that they knew in English.This was a big contrary of what the book said  because the book mentioned that because of the lack of vocabulary that student might have in English ,they are not disposed to an oral work.

One disadvantage that the student teacher had , and not only her , is that her students only practice the English inside the classroom, so they did not put into practice the new vocabulary that they learned , so it put extra difficulty for some  students to be more confidence as the book mentioned.

On the reading skill, this was not an area in where the teaching worked  because the students were starting to read in Spanish , so it was not effective that the teacher worked in this area since the students did not respond good when the teacher tried to make them learned the words in English.

On another hand ,the writing skill had the same problem as in the reading skill.As the students ere coping with the troubles of reading and writing in Spanish, the English learning was more difficult to deal with .But students did try to identify the letter of each words and try to recognized them .

Even thought the book said that oral work and writing skill are combined, kids responded better in oral work skill than writing skills.This unusual event may happen because of the culture that Salvadoreans have and without noticing that young pupils copy this since a very young age.

.

- One of the activity that the teacher did was the repeating exercise  since this one was the most effective and worked out perfectly in teaching for young learners .This activity make the learning process from students easier.But one thing that the teacher changed is the way the students would say it .For example, if they were going to repeat the name of the fruits( apple and watermelon ), they would repeat the word "apple" with a sad gesture , and with sadness sorrow ,and the word "watermelon" with a happy and cheerful face. This kind of activity worked very good in the students, and the teacher achieved her goal.

Another activity that the teacher applied was singing a song.This activity did not have a changed since the students had fun with it in every class.
