If possible, I would suggest you go to a bookstore and take a look at a coursebook which has many levels (I would suggest Chatterbox - there �s Starter, and levels 1-4, and I find it extremely useful for the age groups you mention). Take a look at the contents of these books and workbooks, and the tests offered in the teachers � books to get a clearer idea of what they �re expected to learn. If you �re going to teach them without a coursebook, and it �s your first time, you should have a copy of an appropriate coursebook for yourself so you �d know which topics to cover concerning vocabulary, spelling, reading, speaking and grammar - it helps create a framework and guides you, and you will see what to add and how to expand on the materials you need. I for one would prefer to have such a book at hand, than to rely on lots of internet data which may be abundant, but hasn �t been sorted, organised, and doesn �t quite follow the process of learning. Knowing what they �re expected to learn will help you see what you can assess. If you work for a school, they should supply you with some sort of a register. As for behaviour, you can �t really grade it, but I have a reward system - for lack of homework I give them a minus, and for doing the hw they get a plus. Three pluses are an A. It is definitely better to reward all the good that they do than to punish anything bad they do - lead by example. |
