          It is one day for teaching test about ASEAN. Today there are 11 people to do a test. Now I would like to tell you how they were teaching.
          The first person thought speaking skill. She thought about exchange rate. She let students to speak more time including group and pair work and she used language fluency. The second person thought reading skill. She prepared ASEAN song to start the lesson. She thought reading strategies but when read the words, she pronounced the words incorrectly. The third person thought writing skill. She let students to watch ASEAN video before going to start the lesson. She thought writing a letter but she didn’t tell them how to write. She had only video about writing a letter. She used language incorrectly. The fourth thought listening skill. She thought about booking a flight ticket. Activity that she used in the class it cannot practice listening skill. The fifth person thought speaking skill. She had video that was related to the lesson. She thought about asking and bargaining prices. She let students to know the currency in Singapore first and then she let them to play game. She had more time for them to practice speaking skill. The sixth person thought listening skill. Activities that she used it were emphasis on speaking more than listening. The seventh person thought writing skill. He thought how to write a fight ticket. She showed the website that it used for it. The eighth person thought speaking skill. She thought about exchange rate in Malaysia. She prepared more activities for students but some activities it didn’t related to skill. The ninth person thought reading skill. She thought about meaning of ASEAN country flag. She had more activities about it but it didn’t clear for reading skill. The tenth person thought writing skill. She thought writing a postcard in Malaysia. She had a real material. The last person thought speaking skill. He thought about country and nationality. He let students to have more time to practice speaking skill.
          All of our teaching is better than before. We had real materials to teach that is related to communicative language teaching. When you are teaching students, students can use language in real life. Now, language learning is on web-based learning. It is emphasis on students. Students must learn by themselves. So, we should think how to teach students and should comprehend about how to write  an objective.

ASEAN is important for people in 10 countries. Then, it is a good way for my friends and me to design your lesson to teach students about ASEAN. Today there are 13 people for doing a test.  One of all is me.
          The first person thought listening skill. She chooses places in Laos to teach students but I think she didn’t teach them about listening strategies. She emphasized on speaking more than listening. So, she couldn’t evaluate students correctly. The second person thought about speaking skill. She began the lesson by presenting all countries in ASEAN. She had a sound of words for them to listen and practice their speaking. She thought them how to pronoun the word correctly by using the stick but it was a good way if she chooses one country to teach them. The third person thought reading skill. She began the lesson by presenting the food in Malaysia but there was less practice for students. The fourth person thought writing skill. She thought about comparative place in Laos. I think she didn’t prepare herself for teaching and she didn’t have clear activity. The fifth person thought listening skill. She let students to listen in a less time. She should have more time for students to practice listening skill. The sixth person thought reading skill. She let students to read news but she thought in the wrong way and she didn’t know the parts of news correctly.  She pronounced the words incorrectly. The seventh person is me. I thought writing skill. I let students to write a postcard by using tourist attractions in Singapore and I let students to know tourist attractions in Singapore first. The eighth person thought speaking skill. She thought about recommendation place and she had time for students to practice speaking. She thought fluency. The ninth thought listening skill. She thought about do and don’t in Malaysia. She thought different content. It was good for teaching this content. The tenth person thought speaking skill. She thought about ASEAN currency and asking price. She had a native speaker for students to listen conversation but she didn’t use language fluency. The eleventh person thought reading skill. She had a good activity but she pronounced the words incorrectly. She should have worksheet for students because it helped students to understand fast. The twelfth person thought writing skill. She had activity for students to practice writing skill but she wrote some word incorrect like exiting. The right word is exciting. So, she should check the content before teaching students. The last person for today thought listening skill. She let students to listen exchange rate conversation but she didn’t teach listening strategies for them.
          All of us that thought today, there were many mistakes.  Teacher told at last we didn’t focus on students. It was a good way if we let students to do more activities. When we writing a lesson plan, we should write learner more teacher for doing activity. We cannot forget about task and test must relate together. If we would like students to speaking, we should give time for them to speak.

      Today is one day for teaching test. There are 10 people for today. I’m a first person to test. I thought about ordering food. There are a lot of mistake like don’t interpret students while they are doing the activity. Teacher should tell about their mistake after they finished doing activity. Then there are a lot of good points for my teaching. I would like to tell you about that one. I had clear objectives and have instruction to evaluation and assessment students. I had good manage classroom and I used eye-contact to students all the time. I could solve the face problem and I used a lot of questionings. Classroom is smooth and transition. I will get the good point and I will improve the mistake to be good in the next test. The second person thought about asking direction. She had a video about people asking the way to the place for beginning the lesson. She should give time to students to practice the conversation much time.  When you want to teach vocabulary to students, you should show the parts of speech of the vocabulary. The third person thought about ordering food. She had video for beginning the classroom and game but she should improve the speaking rubric to emphasis on fluency more than accuracy. The fourth person thought about occupation. She used game for beginning the lesson but she had a lot of mistakes about her pronunciation. The fifth and sixth person thought about asking direction. She used game for starting the class. The seventh person thought about places in Satun and she let students to describe the picture by using the adjective. The eighth person thought the same one about asking direction. The last person thought about ordering food. She had a video and she thought modal verb too.
          From watching friends teaching and teaching today, there are a lot of things that are good for the next teaching. I will get the good point that friends and teacher commented me and I will improve the weak point of them and me too. This is good lesson and experience for many people and me to learn.

This time for teaching test

          Before we were testing, teacher told us how to write ASEAN lesson plan and objective might clear and should choose 1 skill for teaching. But while we were teaching, we could interfere other skill. He said that in 21 century everything is in the website, children must learn by themselves. Today we would like to teaching finish in the first lesson plan (Local).
          Now I would like to tell you one by one about their teaching. There were 11 people. Some people thought the same content. The first person thought about attraction in Phang Nga.  She would like them to know place in there. While she was teaching, she used question to check students that they understood or not. She used video to encourage students to learn in that content but she should improve her evaluation. The second person thought about recommendation place in Nakhon Si Thammarat. She had video for students but she spent more time for the video. So, it could make students to be boring. Ball Game that she used could have more techniques like turn on the music and then turn off the music. One thing that she did well was conversation sound; she could find native speaker sound. The third person thought what you did on holiday at Krabi. He thought multi skills. He did not specific in 1 skill. So, students did not understand and couldn’t use the content in real life. There were many mistakes in the worksheet thought it was simple point. Therefore he could more prepare himself for teaching. The fourth person thought about asking direction. She started the lesson by using game and let students to know the place in Phattalung. Her spoken and written was not correctly. She did not manage her classroom while students were playing Facebook. She should manage students to stop playing Facebook. The fifth person thought about be going to. She let students to know the place in Sougkla and she would like them to watch the video about Songkla. She had an objective clearly but her evaluation did not relate to objective or criteria. The sixth person thought asking direction in Phattani. She had video and picture cards about that place. She thought like before person. By an accident she had the same mistake about evaluation form that criteria did not relate to the score. The seventh person thought about Occupation in Trang. She had a game for them but she did not tell them about part of speech and occupation words should have article. The eighth person thought about ordering food. First one, she let students to know food in Nakhon Si Thammarat by playing game. She did a good job but her written grammar did not correct and her evaluation too. The ninth person thought about hotel reservations. It was not the same other. He had authentic material to teach students. The name of hotel should have the- and his evaluation should relate to objective. The last person for today thought about food in Nakhon Si Thammarat and she focused on agreement and disagreement with food. The content nearly difficult and students never used in the real life. She used good language but fast. She told that she wanted to teach speaking skill but she emphasis on grammar more than speaking skill. So, she should one thing to teach.
          From watching friends teaching today, there are a lot of things that are good for my teaching. I will get the good point of them and I will improve the weak point of them too. This is good lesson and experience for many people and me to learn.
