Happy Sunday :)

Being a teacher from a different point of view.

Today, we had a special class. Mercedes Ruiz, a preschool teacher, came to our classroom to talk about how we should teach in a future and she did a performance to explain it. After that we went to the street to find some picture to catch children's atention. We had to invent a dinamic and enthusiastic slogan which motivate children to study.

When we were thinking about what to do, we saw a little squirrel climbing a tree. We all decided to take some photos and after that we would think of a creative slogan. The result of our brainstorming was:

And here is the slogan: "Be natural, be educational"

Then, when all the groups had finished the activity, we went back to class and we had to present our slogan in a dinamic way. It was so funny and interesting and we all had such a good time.

Mercedes taught us how to be different teachers, how to catch children's attention and how to teach and get fun at the same time.

We are very grateful to have known her because she had such some interesting ideas about how to be a good teacher and a good performer, and we think that we can learn a lot of things from her.
