How did you structure the class?

*Music in the background*

– Greet the students and ask them to tell how they are feeling today. The students are asked to write in a piece of paper a situation to complete the prompt “What would you do if…?” (¿Que harías tu si…?). After everyone has written a situation, the students sit in a circle. As a whole class, one student reads his/her situation, and the next student has to briefly answer what he/she would do in that situation. Then, the student who answered has to read his/her situation and the next answers and so on until everyone has participated (20min).

– With a different partner, the students are given some cards with situations where they have to explain what they would do. They discuss ideas only with their partner this time (20min).

– Then, the students are given a sheet with different dilemmas. They have to pick one of them and roleplay the situation for their classmates. After each roleplay, students are encouraged to put themselves in the situation and say if they had done things the same way or differently (15min).

– Space for general questions, closing, and remind important dates and events (last day of language tables, international study break and OLC about projects (5min).

What technology, media or props did you use? (internet resources, playmobiles, handouts, etc.)

What worked well in this class? What did not work?

Today’s class flowed effortlessly, with students fully engaged in the roleplay activity. Their enthusiasm was contagious as they acted out different scenarios. I was impressed by their creativity, as many of them went above and beyond, adding rich details and expressions to their performances. Laughter filled the room, which is a sign of their enjoyment and sense of camaraderie. Witnessing their happiness and active participation was truly rewarding.

How could this class be improved/modified?

For this class, I would not modify or change anything.
