We

haven’t covered the past simple yet so when I asked about their weekend my

students said things like ‘I go to the park’, ‘I am very busy with my friends’.

I’m

trying to get my learners to see the difference between the subjunctive in

English and in their own language so that they will use it accurately in

English.

While

doing an individual drill teaching ‘going to’, one of the students said ‘I

going to buy some fruit’. I repeated ‘I going’ with rising intonation and he

said I’m going’.

We’ve

been doing a lot of practice saying /θ/ and /ð/. My learners keep saying /z/, I

think it’s because they don’t have those sounds in their own language so they

just use the sound they do have.

My

students were really tired by the end of the afternoon so I didn’t do very much

correction. I knew that they would know how to say the sentences correctly;

they were just tired.
