Lesson evaluation:
I think it was a successful lesson because pupils participated in it with a great interest especially during listening. I was surprised at the very beginning when I saw how much they like it and I really didn’t have to encourage them to participation in this exercise. It taught me that there should be more activities connected with things Ss enjoy during the lesson such as games and fun. In this way they learn much faster. So if I had a chance to give this lesson once more I would definitely add at least one game or chant to make Ss happy and the process of learning more pleasurable. During this lesson they weren’t discipline problems.
