 Introduction

This portfolio has the purpose to show the different steps and aspects within my
practicum, I will also give some commentaries about this experience and situations that were
the result of the process of a student doing my praticum.
This kind of workshops show the results of the process in which I was involved, it also
shows the methodology, activities and lesson plans that I had to do while I was doing my
practicum.
The main goals in this process were trying to do more interactive activities and
exercises, and to get the students internalize the knowlegde on an effective way.

Teaching Reading in a Foreign Language..

Researchers in first language acquisition have contributed much to the understanding of how
reading processes develop. First language research has found that readers' purposes and
approaches to texts differ not only by text, but by the individual reader. Second language
researchers have drawn upon this information and have found similarities between the reading
strategies of first and second language readers. Furthermore, second language researchers
have learned how expectations defined by a reader's culture influence what the reader
understands when reading.

RECOGNIZING AND IMPLEMENTING EFFECTIVE SECOND LANGUAGE READING

STRATEGIES

When teachers of second language reading recognize that each reader brings to the reading
process a unique set of past experiences, emotional and mental processes, level of cognitive
development, and interest level in the topic, they also recognize that not all teaching strategies
will be effective for all students. When isolating the most effective teaching strategies to use with
a group of students, the second language teacher must also consider those reader strategies
that are not necessarily related to content schemata. Such reader strategies include the
following:

- using titles and illustrations to understand a passage,

- skimming, scanning, summarizing, guessing word meanings, becoming aware of the reading
process, and taking risks. All of these strategies can be targeted for use with foreign language
materials.

Another step in effectively teaching students how to read materials written in a second language
is helping the individual reader to identify effective reading strategies based on text variables.
One important part of this step is alerting the readers to significant aspects of text variables that
will affect second language reading. For example, pointing out the differences between a fairy
tale and a newspaper article helps the reader to recognize the different text types and to
prepare for the uncomplicated sentence structure, high-frequency vocabulary, and, in most
cases, happy ending that typically characterize a fairy tale. On the other hand, the same reader
would need to prepare very differently to read a newspaper article about the technicalities
involved in negotiating a disarmament treaty. In this case, the vocabulary would be very
specialized and the sentence structure more complicated.

INCORPORATING EFFECTIVE READING STRATEGIES INTO THE SECOND LANGUAGE

CLASSROOM

To encourage students to use effective strategies when reading in a second language, the
teacher can develop simple exercises to elicit information via targeted strategies. These
exercises can be divided by the stage of reading at which they occur.

"Prereading" activities introduce students to a particular text, elicit or provide appropriate

background knowledge, and activate necessary schemata. Previewing a text with students
should arouse their interest and help them approach the text in a more meaningful and
purposeful manner as the discussion compels them to think about the situation or points raised
in a text.

4
The prereading phase helps students define selection criteria for the central theme of a story or
the major argument of an essay. Prereading activities include: discussing author or text type,
brainstorming, reviewing familiar stories (students review Cinderella before reading Cendrillon),
considering illustrations and titles, skimming and scanning (for structure, main points, and future
directions).

"While reading" exercises help students develop reading strategies, improve their control of the
second language, and decode problematic text passages. Helping students to employ strategies
while reading can be difficult because individual students control and need different strategies.
Nevertheless, the teacher can pinpoint valuable strategies, explain which strategies individuals
most need to practice, and offer concrete exercises in the form of "guided reading" activity
sheets. Such practice exercises might include guessing word meanings by using context clues,
word formation clues, or cognate practice; considering syntax and sentence structure by noting
the grammatical functions of unknown words, analyzing reference words, and predicting text
content; reading for specific pieces of information; and learning to use the dictionary effectively.

"Postreading" exercises first check students' comprehension and then lead students to a
deeper analysis of the text, when warranted. Because the goals of most real world reading are
not to memorize an author's point of view or to summarize text content, but rather to see into
another mind, or to mesh new information into what one already knows, second language
reading must go beyond detail-eliciting comprehension drills to help students recognize that
different strategies are appropriate with different text types. For example, scanning is an
appropriate strategy to use with newspaper advertisements whereas predicting and following
text cohesion are effective strategies to use with short stories. By discussing in groups what
they have understood, students focus on information they did not comprehend, or did not
comprehend correctly. Discussions of this nature can lead the student directly to text analysis as
class discussion proceeds from determining facts to exploring deeper ramifications of the texts.

"Follow-up" exercises take students beyond the particular reading text in one of two ways: by
transferring reading skills to other texts or by integrating reading skills with other language skills
(Phillips, 1985).

Transferable reading strategies are those that readers can assimilate and use with other texts.
Exercises that emphasize the transfer of skills include beginning a new text similar to a text for
which effective strategies have already been taught, i.e., giving students the front page of a
newspaper to read after they have learned to read the table of contents of a journal.

Integrative activities use text language and ideas in second language listening, speaking, and/or
writing. Integrative skills exercises include such activities as students reacting to texts with
summaries, new endings, or pastiches; reenacting text; dramatizing interviews based on the
text; carefully listening for key words or phrases in authentic video or audio tapes; and creating
role-play situations or simulations of cultural experiences.

Reflection N°3 Post observation-feedback
Taking into account the first lesson you received some feedback from your guide teacher,

• What aspects do you identify as critical once you have finished the lesson? Refer about
your own expectations, fears and resolutions.

At the begining the class was complicated because all the students were different and they
were restles and was difficult to keep them quiet, but my guide teacher said my students
were like that all the time, so she gave me some tips for the next class in order to keep
them calm and interested.

• Also Refer about the feelings that came up when socializing the above issues with him
or her.

When I finished my class I felt a little worried because it was the first day and that day I
wanted to do everything good. I thought that this was a real chance to prove myself that I was
able to do it well, eventhough at first I felt frustrated due to the students behaviour and my lack
of experience at teaching, I really believed that I was giong to be able to improve my
methodology and have a better relationship with the students.

Observation stage.
Pedagogical Artifacts nº1

When I started my observation class I spent two weeks observing my students.During this
period I had the opportunity to know them and also I could know what were their dreams and
hopes.
Another important fact was that I could observe was the management of the teacher in the
classroom and the way she solved the problems that happened during the class.
Another point was that the students knew the purpose of my presence in the classroom.

Reflection nº1:

I believe that it is very important to know the students, because it is the only way that I have to
confront and resolve problems . When we know them we can internalized and we can resolve
conflicts in an assertive way .
While I was observing I could see how they worked, it was positive because I could prepare
material according to their needs.

II. Team-teaching stage.

a) Pedagogical Artifacts nº2

She works with photocopies and most of the time she writes some exercices on the whiteboard,
sometimes she works with some text where students had to translate, I think she used this
method to keep them quiet.
My teacher always told me about the subject that she was teaching. And the purpose of the
class .
When the students were working I always tried to help them to understand the subject or
resolve any doubts and also I brought a lot of material to be used by the teacher.

b)Reflection Nº2. “Interactions in the classroom”

Sometimes was a bit complicated to keep them quiet because they are restless and some of
them do not pay attention to the class. I belive that they should work with something more fun
because they get bored doing the same activity all the time( translating texts or copying).

II. Tabla de Reunión:

La Directora, que es quien dirige la reunión, comienza a hablar sin proponer los temas a
conversar, por lo cual no hay una tabla ni orden en los temas que se abordaran. Por lo tanto al
finalizar la reunión y analizando nuestros apuntes llegamos a determinar los temas que se
tomaron en el consejo.

El primer tema del consejo fue información sobre la jornada a la que asistió la Directora y la jefa
de UTP. A rasgos generales en esta jornada se hablo sobre:

• La optimización en la utilización del tiempo de las horas de clase, también los resultados de
las pruebas SIMCE.
• Llamada de atención a los profesores para que se preocuparan del orden, aseo y decoración
de las salas.
• Otro tema que se trato y que la Directora manifestó como muy positivo fue que las
planificaciones de Lenguaje y Matemáticas vienen ya desarrolladas.
• Evaluación de contenidos a los alumnos, la jefa de UTP debe conocer las pruebas con
anticipación, una vez evaluadas debe haber una revisión con los alumnos para ver los errores y
como mejorarlos, en este punto hay una intervención de la Directora en la que plantea que ella
debe ir a observar las clases y que le gustaría ser invitada por los profesores.
• Lista de obligaciones del profesor.

El segundo tema en cuestión se refirió a que profesores irían al curso de formación de futuros
líderes.

El tercer tema se refirió a que profesora se haría cargo del Primero Básico el próximo año.

Como cuarto tema se hablo del concurso de poema que se realizara a vuelta de vacaciones.

Pre-kinder par que conocieran las actividades que se realizan en un día de clases.

III. Comentario:
A modo personal me pareció muy importante y entretenido que al final del consejo fuimos
invitados a participar en una actividad en la sala de Pre-kinder y kinder donde las parvularias
nos hicieron participar en una jornada de clases en la cual ellas mostraban lo que se hacia con
los alumnos. Hubo una pequeña introducción de cómo ellas comenzaban la clase y de los
materiales utilizados y de los logros que se podían conseguir con estos donde hubo una activa
participación de los profesores.
Se termino la reunión con una pequeña once donde fuimos cordialmente invitados todos los
practicantes.
