Mrs. Peralta enters the 4th year classroom one Friday morning. It is very early in the morning and the learners already know that they are finishing with the topic of Simple Past in their English class. They are supposed to start with the “Diary Project.” After Mrs. Peralta greets them, she starts explaining the project and the activities they will have to undertake. They are asked to work individually and most of them seem to be curious about the task.
They are supposed to write down all the activities they did last week, so with those notes, they are going to create a diary telling what activities they did each day of last week. They are said to describe all their actions in each day using the simple past tense, including regular and irregular verbs. Previously, they were showed an example to be used as a guide. They are also instructed to add pictures or drawings to illustrate their narrations.
After listening to Mrs. Peralta's explanations, they are eager to start working. Some learners show confidence in the task while others look confused, so Mrs. Peralta helps and fosters them. After some minutes, they start asking about the past tense of certain verbs and the teacher advises them to check on their irregular verb list.
They work enthusiastically as they can not only talk about their own experiences, but also use the language they have learned in this context.
