Using videos and film in class
I always use videos to make the classes a bit more interesting and vary the activities. I thought I should show you the websites that have videos to get some feedback if anyone tries them. I used one video called Mixtape where a kid gives a mixtape to a girl he likes who lives next door. At the end of the class, the students come up with a mixtape of their own. I actually found out a lot about the students’ music tastes. That week’s lessons I was teaching were about music, so it fitted in great and took up the ninety minutes of teaching I had. I have added the actual weblink for the lesson and added another video lesson site for you to have a look at.
