TP Session #16_Kennell

TP Session #16 – 3/3/2015
I sat in on Andrew Wilson’s Listening class for the first time on Tuesday. I met Mr. Wilson fifteen minutes before class in his office, where he gave me the textbook for the class, the syllabus, and an attendance sheet. He even put them all in a personalized binder for me. Needless to say, I felt very welcomed.
We began the class with me taking attendance. I didn’t do as bad with the names as I might have, and felt generally pretty good about it. Andrew then had students ask me questions about myself, which I thought was a good exercise. It gave the students some listening and speaking practice while keeping their interest level very high.

We then did some vocabulary building and discussion, before moving into a listening activity. This was the first part of the textbook’s listening practice story. We played it a few times, having students fill in blank spots in a dialogue transcript. We then discussed the answers, and ended the class.
