Assessing my Learning Process
Checklist Use the checklist to evaluate your classmate’s work. Students can use the checklist provided to evaluate their classmates’ work. Once all students have finished, give them some time to walk around the room and look at each other’s work. Monitor to make sure all comments are respectful, and offer praise. Self-evaluation 1. Work in pairs. Think of an easy everyday process. Give your classmate instructions. Listen and say if any step is not clear. Organize students in pairs. Read the instructions out loud. Monitor and provide support as needed. Regroup students into groups of four and ask them to discuss their responses. Give students a minute to reflect on how successfully they completed the activity. Elicit reflections from the different groups. 2. Look back through the lessons and check what you have learned to learn, to know, and to do. After that, you can go to page 113 again and check. Tell students to go to page 113 to check the themes presented in the Appendix so they can recall what they learned. 3. In your notebook, write what you think was difficult to achieve. Check the tips given at the end of each lesson and explain how they may help you to improve. Invite students to reread the tips given at the end of each lesson and reflect on how these tips may help them to improve. Have them write their conclusions in their notebook. Make sure to record which students need help so that you may design strategies to support them. What problem can you solve? Finally, organize the class into small groups and read the title of the unit aloud: What problem can you solve? Give them a few minutes to discuss their answers while you walk around and monitor. Ask one person from each team to share their group’s answers with the rest of the class.

A Short, Illustrated Guide In this session, students will write their final version of steps and illustrate them in groups. Put students into groups. Encourage them to use all the language in their portfolio to help them with the task. Tell them that they can choose to describe the process as in Lesson 4, or any other process. Tell them to pool together all the expressions and sentences they wrote and decide together on a final version. Let students produce their final version on several pieces of paper or on a poster. It could help students to define different roles in their groups so that everyone has something to do and takes an active part in the task; e.g.: two people write sentences and two people illustrate. Remember you always have the option to adapt the product to your class’s needs and interests. If students are not confident enough to come to the front of the class, first put them into pairs and ask them to practice. You can then regroup and ask them to practice again and again, until they feel more confident.
