I observed the 3A Grammar class with Hunter Pelt on January 25th. Hunter was the first teacher I observed, and I was thoroughly impressed with how he handled the classroom and taught with such enthusiasm. He introduced the class with a partner activity and asked the students when the last time they saw a mountain was. Since there were an uneven amount of students I had a partner myself, Achman. During the activity, he mentioned that this class was going to be run slightly different from the norm because of a paper that is due soon. Today, they covered prepositions, and he introduced the lesson and gave a list of prepositions and covered when to use each in detail. Then, he asked for a synonym of each one. After, he dispersed National Geographic magazines and asked us to flip to a page with a group of people in it. Next, he asked us to partner up and identify where each person is in the picture using prepositions. Throughout the lesson, he collected errors the students made while speaking with their partners, and as the post lesson activity, wrote the errors on the board for students to collectively correct themselves.
