Applying task-based approach inside the english class with a group of 4th graders

Abstract

This internship took place in Heladia Mejia IED. The main point of this intervention was to support the English classes and to build English skills according to the level in which students were (4th grade) Along the intervention, I found that the emotional component in these kids was a major subject regarding the English language learning/teaching as they had a serious amount of misconceptions and bias due to feeble experiences they had with previous English teachers inside the classroom. This misconception presented a challenge in the implementation of the internship, however, love, understanding, resolve and a clear set of rules proved useful making little but massively meaningful changes in their insight regarding learning, and more determining regarding the learning of English. Happy kids make happy classes, happy classes account for a safe learning environment, reduce behavior issues and build interest for learning.
