Upon observing the English Language Arts group activities, I have noticed that the students seem to lack engagement and enthusiasm. Therefore, in an effort to enhance their interest in learning English, I am planning to introduce a different learning tool.
My idea is to allow students to discuss and share their ideas on the whiteboard during group activities, using their own unique colored markers.
This will enable them to see each other's ideas and feel proud to have their own color. Moreover, this exercise will provide them with the opportunity to communicate with each other and improve their writing skills by receiving feedback on their writing from their peers.
By encouraging active participation and collaboration among students, I hope to foster a more engaging and dynamic learning environment. My ultimate goal is to help students develop a deeper interest in learning English and improve their English proficiency through fun and interactive group activities.
