Well, as you know ladies we asked to interview you because we need to appoint new English teachers for the 6th graders at our school. I will not ask you to do a demo lesson now. Instead, I want to know how would you prepare for a reading comprehension text session.
et me start first with you, Ms. Lama.
My pleasure, dear principal!For a reading session, I would ask the students to read silently and individually the text two times, highlight the keywords, and then solve the comprehension questions in pairs.
I will read the text with them again, discuss the questions, write the answers on the board, and ask them to check their work.
How can you ensure their understanding of the material?
What about you, Ms. Lynn?
To be honest, I totally disagree with Ms. Lama's approach. I think that students learn a lot through texts, to make benefit of this, a session allocated for a reading comprehension text must be interactive.
What do you mean by making such a session interactive? When no experiments, PBLs, or group work can be done! Can you elaborate more on this, Ms. Lynn?
With technology today, all classes can be interactive and enjoyable to the students. Nevertheless, one should keep in mind that digital literacy must be reinforced in a 21st-century classroom.
That's to say, for a reading comprehension text, I will make use of the equipment available in the school. I might use the smartboard to present the text. We can read the text all together, highlight, add something, and make the modification needed on the spot; on the smartboard. By making this, the lesson will be interactive and I will be able to reach all the students and make sure they fully understood.
After reading the text and answering the questions, I can post it on OneDrive or Class Notebook, so that every student will have access to read, modify, and view their friends' notes.
That's what I wanted to hear. Welcome, to you both, on board! I am looking forward to seeing your collaboration together for a fruitful result!
