Show and Tell has
been one of my favorites because students get to introduce whatever they like
in English, like their favorite comic books, novels and even video games. To do
this right, students have to develop a draft for their oral presentation first,
so writing skills are also involved. Next, during presentations, they need to
pay attention in order to answer my questions about what just has been said.
Thus, listening comprehension is incorporated as well. Prior to that, teacher’s
demonstration is necessary because students will have a model to follow in
terms of eye contact, volume, organization and so on. On top of that, I also
showed my students how to use rubrics to examine each other’s performances so
that they can do a better job next time.
