Your approach to classroom management and organization

 A description of your philosophy(the principles, approaches, and beliefs) of classroom management:

Within the classroom it is very important that the teacher pre-plans his class. I believe that having a sequence for each activity allows the class to be carried out in a satisfactory manner with good results.

An account of procedures used for teaching large classes and for using group work:

A procedure that was carried out was to do collaborative work with the purpose of each student organizing the ideas and projecting an organized and complete work.

A diagram of your ideal language classroom

A description of the most effective activity you developed with the students.

One of the most effective activities was doing a practical workshop on the topic of feelings and emotions. Each student had to solve the activity according to the teacher's instructions. At the end of the class the practical workshop was graded. All the students were active and eager to learn.

List the digital resources you use with the student (kahoot .etc)

The institution does not have access to computers or internet for all students; so only a digital exam was developed using the teacher's phone and computer. The exam was carried out using a form offered by Google, it is easy and fast.

Documents showing your commitment to professional development

A report on how you think you have developed since you began teaching

The first time I went to an institution for observation practice I was very excited and at the same time I was a little nervous. But over time I realized that the teaching process is a process in which many factors must be analyzed, for example: the family, the living conditions of each student, the social, the opportunities and weaknesses that each student presents and that acquired within the institution is also a very important factor.

I discovered that each student has skills that must be developed and that with the help of the teacher, the student can become very good. Being a teacher has allowed me to immerse myself in a world with a lot of knowledge to discover and many situations that can be improved. with respect to the English area.

Implementing different teaching strategies and methodologies allows the student to better understand the subject and acquire many effective knowledge for their personal development.

final conclusions about how this course support your teacher development plan.

 This course supports the teacher development plan because it allows us as future teachers to be immersed in the classroom, identifying factors such as teaching, the topics taught for each grade, the deficiencies and strengths of each student, it also allows the development of exams according to the topic seen in the case.

I consider that the practice has been very good in this training process.

Some suggestions, recommendations, congratulations about the activities of the course. 

The course is well structured, it has good tutors and directors who are attentive to pedagogical practice.

Critical incident

A lot of noise from the students

Case analysis 

In the sixth grade of the institution, there was a lot of noise from the students in an English class. The first hour they did not allow the class to be taught, so the intervention of the principal was necessary to be able to teach the class in the second hour.

Approaches to classroom investigation in teaching

 The research approaches in the classroom allow the teacher to be committed to creativity and the updating of pedagogical practices so that the student achieves motivation, amazement and curiosity in each proposed activity.

The teacher must:

1. Organize and animate learning situations.

2. Manage the progression of learning.

3. Develop and evolve differentiation devices.

4. Involve students in their learning and work.

5. Work as a team.

6. Participate in the management of the school.

7. Inform and involve parents.

8. Use new technologies.

9. Face the duties and ethical dilemmas of the profession.

10. Organize your own continuing training. (Perrenoud, 2005).
