Nicky_TP_#12

11/24/14 TP 12
    Today I went to the computer lab with Leslie’s class. They were to have a small quiz and then return to the classroom. During the discussion part everyone was to converse with someone random in the class without looking at them through a computer speaking program. I was assigned with Saja, as last time Saja was accidentally paired with some guy in the class.

    Once we returned upstairs we started going over what you say when you are feeling sick and need to see a doctor. Once we covered a few terms we were handed a handout with a cartoon strip of a man going to the doctor. We were to create our own dialogue in order to later present our conversation to the class. Unfortunately we did not get very far, as Saja was unsure what fever and sickness meant. I managed to explain fever well but sickness was a little harder. She could not grasp the difference between a sickness and symptoms. I’m not too worried after today as this was probably the first day they were given this new vocabulary. Tomorrow I will be teaching their class on the subject of Thanksgiving.
