Week 2

This week was very unexpected and brought me many surprises. When I arrived at the school on the first day of the week, the directors told that the teacher was incapacitated and that I needed to replace her with the first groups. Honestly, this reception in the school pissed me off due to I did not even now that the was not going to be at the school and for this reason, I could not prepare any of the classes with the corresponding topics for this week. However, I had to improvise with the topics because the instructions they gave me about what each group was doing were not very clear. They just told me to write the agenda on the board and to show images to the students, or at least this happened with second grade. 

As it was impossible to prepare something for the classes I just followed the instructions word by word. The dynamic of the primary English teacher classes were affected by my intervention because all teachers give their classes in a different way. For this reason, it was as complicated for the students as for me to get used to it. One of the complications was the manner in which the English teacher give her classes, for example, at the moment to write the agenda on the board the students immediately told me that the teacher never wrote the agenda. 

Besides, she chose a student to write the agenda every single day in order to give the opportunity to each student to write. As  I did not know this when I first started the classes by writing the agenda student got upset with me. This issue took me a long time of the class as well as the contextualization of the themes and topics that each group was working on. 

Nevertheless, this situation made me think of the complications that occur suddenly inside the classroom and that it is very probable for these kinds of situations to be presented in the class when the teacher has not prepared anything. In the end, I could manage the situation in the correspondent groups of this week.
