Designing a Lesson Plan 

It is funny that me and my colleagues were nervous with the microteaching, as we plan and teach everyday; in my case for five years and for others more than ten years teaching, an as we know that we are going to be observed and scored, we feel as begginers.

I found that effective teachers design lessons that are staged in ways that scaffold the content, balance accuracy and fluency work, and provide stepping stones to learning objectives, in my personal opinion we as teachers we have to direct our students to be accurately and appropriacy and finally fluency, 

I associate this with the fact of learn how to drive a car, at the very beginning you are afraid about it and only focus on apply what was though, later through the practice, you are able not only to drive well but also you can do one more activity at the same time, as having a conversation or calling on the phone that confidence is the result of the accuracy and fluency of the task.

Arkansas and the listening Skills I used to manage the listening skills as Cambridge examination format, students have to listen two times and answer questions about what the conversation was about however,   during my training in Arkansas, I have observed a real context, where we are exposed to the real context, real conversations which only are able to listen once, this conception has agreement with some theories that   have argued that this is unnatural that in real life one only gets one hearing, beyond classical format, however the ideal is not only to provide sufficient context to match that which would be available in real life but also to create motivation as predictions about what they will hear. I have found my motivation through the necessity, when I go to the mall and I face a real English speaking environmet and I am alone, I have to to my best to understand what the cashier is saying me, at the very begging it was frustraiting, as I couldn´t understand, by these t
