Task 1 Teaching and motivation Introduction One of the biggest challenges for teachers today is to make the teaching relevant and challenging, and at the same time be practical and varied in their teaching so as to motivate the students in their learning. I believe this is something that is especially challenging in a subject like English because motivation for learning a second language is not always present in students today. Second language learning can be difficult and frustrating if you are not motivated to do it, but I think with the right teaching-methods and a passionate teacher anyone can be motivated to like English. In this paper I will focus on some of the basic skills from the curriculum in English, …show more content…

School environment is a huge factor when it comes to the students’ wellbeing, which is extremely important in motivation for learning. For the student to want to come to school, the environment has to be a good environment. Both physically and mentally. I believe it is important that the schools try to maintain a certain standard when it comes to appearance and classroom comfort. This can of course be difficult with lack of money to redecorate, but a lot of schools have been able to freshen up their appearance lately and the impact this has on the students is solely positive. It is a motivation in itself to be able to come to a school that does not fall apart and has breathable air in the …show more content…

But when you are learning a new language there are basic skills one has to take into account. The basic skills we find in the English curriculum for Norway is as follows: Oral skills, being able to express oneself in writing, being able to read, numeracy, and digital skills. (http://www.udir.no/kl06/ENG1-03/Hele/Grunnleggende_ferdigheter/?lplang=eng 27/5-2015) Planning a session based on these basic skills were the students feel they are challenged and at the same time enjoy the outcome is an important task of being a teacher. The difficult part here can be to meet the individual student on their various levels of English skills. Every student is not equally good in English, some can be better at writing than talking for instance. This can be a challenge for the teacher, and though we all wish we could give the students the best teaching programme for each one of them this tends to take too much time for us to plan. Of course, the students that struggles the most with learning English are offered an individual education plan (IEP), but in a second language classroom we will find all sorts of levels in English skills, especially in upper secondary school. The levels can range from advanced to very low, and the difficult task for the teacher is to challenge the students

Retro Respect By Prince Ea Analysis

862 Words | 4 Pages

The school environment is setup to be similar to that of a factory, which is clearly evident in the ways students are expected to set in straight rows quietly until they are dismissed by a bell, continuing to the next station. Some schools even enforce a dress code, which is eerily similar to the construct of a factory job. Classroom structures like this could be a prime reason for students dreading school, or feeling as if it is one more task to complete in a repetitive day, killing intellectual freedom. Children should be placed in stimulating environments that will foster their will for learning.

Schools should look presentable and lie people care. They should not be run down and have people questioning if it is an actual school anymore. The spaces in which students learn are crucial to them achieving and caring about their education. The environment in which students are given to learn will not only affect them but also affect the teachers.

Whether it be simply the location or the physical condition of the school, the students safety should be the first priority. Studies have shown that students don't work as well in buildings that are too small, or that are situated on busy streets. They achieve less in buildings that are not well maintained (Merjian 17). Students should have a clean facility in which they can learn properly, but sadly this isn't the case in low income school districts. Instead, their buildings are falling apart and are overcrowded.

An important part of effective teaching revolves around creating and maintaining an efficient classroom environment that encourages students to actively participate, rather than passively learn. As an educator, it is important to create a learning-centered environment that is safe, supportive and educational for each individual student as they grow socially, emotionally, and academically. Establishing a learning environment that is conducive to teaching and learning comes from emphasizing on a series of components that make this possible. Such components include creating a physical environment that is conducive to the children’s social, emotional, and academic growth; developing and encouraging positive relationships; establishing high expectations

Why Is It Important To Teach Ells In The Classroom

2312 Words | 10 Pages

Beginning from my classroom environment all the way to assessments, I want my ELL students to feel comfortable and confident with the work they are doing. Because they will probably be in a completely different atmosphere than they are used to, I need to be aware that there will many situations of unfamiliarity among the student, however, this isn’t a reflection of the student’s knowledge of content. Not only that but, “Educators who understand the power of translanguaging encourage bilinguals to use their home languages to think, reflect, and extend their inner speech” (BOOK, CHAPTER 5). Because of this, I know that when teaching ELLs, I should not ignore their first language and actually use that to help them learn and develop their academic skills in English. I also want my ELL students to be able to learn the material appropriate for their academic ability because “Research on teaching and learning indicates that all students need to be given opportunities to participate in challenging academic work that promotes disciplinary knowledge and encourages high-order thinking skills” (BOOK, CHAPTER 6).
