Jack and Beanstalk

This morning I volunteered to tell “Jack and Beanstalk” for fifth graded. Students looked dull and I was hurt myself. I prepared to present my work for my practices, which was planned in next Wednesday. I think more exercises are needed before my presentation. I have three class exercises ahead and I need to amend what went wrong this morning. “Jack and Beanstalk” is easy to learn, but students were far to understand my talk in English. I used seven pictures and Chinese words on blackboard to describe the context. I also wanted students to repeat some phrases, so I could know students were following my tale. It took forty minutes to complete my lesson. I taught Christmas song along my lesson. Students liked the song, “Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer.” I am released now and writing down my reflection as a journal.

  1. I like this song so much! used to teach this one and 'Santa is coming to town'. I found both young and elder learners like to learn English songs...teaching English songs is a good idea, I assume (except these is no very much grammar to learn from ). but i think as for motivation, teaching songs and story telling are great choice.

    Do you use any media such as VCD or computer in your classroom? I mean do u have any computer or facility that enable you to use for teaching?

    I am trying to involve myself in E-learning advisor industry...thinking this is going to very popular in primary schools.

  3. We don't have computer or VCD/DVD player, but there is a CD player in our English room. I have seen DVD player in other school, however, the English teacher didn't use it because students couldn't get used to things on the screen. I observed one teacher using VCD, but it was awkawd for students to watch through TV screens. I don't know much about computer aid in teaching English.
    Maybe you can take a look at the website as
