school (1st medio to 4th medio).
This rubric has 8 different
aspects that includes
communication, pronunciation,
accuracy, content and
organization, introduction and
closure, body language and eye
contact, poise and voice and
finally manage of content and
timing.
Also this rubric has a score that
goes from 1 to 5 being 1 poor
and 5 very good. Ss talked
about their favorite film, and

minutes.
The scoring instrument was
presented and explained in the

to the students once they
presented.

topic, organization, vocabulary
and spelling, grammar and
punctuation and neatness. This

4. TASK 2
material checked in
class, movie types,
vocabulary about
movies, award
ceremonies,
comparative and
superlative and
topics from unit 5 like
present perfect,
shopping and
vocabulary related
with shopping.
movies, award ceremonies,
some grammar structures like
comparative and superlatives,
and some topics from unit 5.
The test is divided in 3 big parts
which are use of English,
listening comprehension and
reading comprehension.
To start with, it is important to mention that the content (topic and subtopics) are
taken from a book called Solutions pre intermediate, which is chosen by the
English department, thus the information that is selected and presented to the
students resembles that from the book. It is important to mention that most of
the activities of the book are mean to serve the whole class, and they were
divided into pre, while and post activities.
Assessment instruments prove to be useful. Moreover, since the scoring
instruments were presented and explained beforehand, students became more
aware of the issues they need to pay attention to wile giving their presentations.
When the task was completed, they had some time to ask questions about their
weakest points and all the observations that were made, and they were able to
recognize their errors or flaws. It is necessary to point out that not all students
completed the tasks, and some did not make use of the scoring instruments.
Among the factors that influenced the lesson plan, are students’ motivation, the
focus on certain skills required by the school, and extra requirements regarding
marks. It is important to mention that this school and students are very
competitive regarding marks, so they try to do their best in everything, that’s
why the scoring instruments where shown beforehand, so they can practice and

5. produce a good piece of work. Also I tried to give them feedback when they
were doing class works and activities. This was a very difficult class to work
with, some of the ideas and activities for extra points where not able to be done.
Regarding students with special needs, this school does not have a special
program or evaluations for kids with learning difficulties, so test and activities
were the same for all students.
Regarding to the results, since I start my professional practicum, there was a
variation in marks. When I was there, they had 4 summative evaluations
regarding each skill (listening, speaking, writing and reading) and the last
evaluation was the final test, which included 3 of the 4 skills (no speaking part)
If we compare the listening and reading tests, the results are the following:

The results are different regarding receptive and productive skills. They were
higher in the speaking and writing, because for ss these are the easier skills,

6. which they have been working with since they start school. The marks regarding
listening and reading where not as good as the other ones, because Ss were
not able to concentrate when they were doing this test, some students were
talking and not paying attention to the reading and listening, which affect their
marks.

In the final test, marks were weaker in comparison with the other tests. This was
because Ss were speaking, not paying attention and not interested in the
classes. Also we missed a lot of classes because of the anniversary week, the
arts, science and math week. And also with the teachers day, which make
students forget some of the topics and things that we were studding in class.
TASK 3
As a final reflection, it can be said that students were able to learned everything
that was planed, but of course some issues were arose during the revision of
the unit. For example we missed a lot of classes because of the anniversary,
teachers day assembly, arts week assembly, etc. This make students feel a
little bit lost when we had to meet the following week. Also many students were
absent the week that comparative and superlative was explained, as a
consequence they struggle and did not feel as confident as the rest of the class.
Another factor that made the evaluation difficult was the fact that the second
semester, students are aware of the little time they have at the school, hence
the students begun to be more talkative and distracted

7. Also in most of the classes it was hard to explain and make students
understand the instructions because most of the students were talking. For this I
try apply some material for classroom management, and they have chart with
stickers, if they do good, they have stickers, if not, stickers will be removed, If
they have a total of 40 stickers they will have a price.
Also a blog was created so everything from the unit was upload to that blog,
and a class email was created so they can share questions, ask doubts and
some day’s I stay a little bit longer so I could offer them guidance and check
their work.
