They made me think and reflect on the Simon I was when I was seventeen. That was nice&#8230;&#8230;I had some real good moments reliving this age.<\/p>\n<p>Hackschool, pirate teaching \/ learning: words that I would have loved when I was seventeen, and which still are inspiring to me, maybe I haven\u00b4t changed that much.<\/p>\n<p>Well now to\u00a0 this week\u00b4s reflections:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>I\u00a0<\/strong><strong> give students opportunities to engage\u00a0in meaningful activities without the teacher\u00a0being central.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Yes, but not enough! For example when students are learning about clothes, I let them organize and present a fashion show, they have to do this in German&#8230;&#8230;..when they are learning about food, they present a receipe of a tipical german meal, when they are learning about the country, they have to plan and present a trip to Germany, etc \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 In these activities you can see that they\u00b4re more\u00a0 involved, even those students which normally show less interest are working hard.<\/p>\n<p>But here is my problem: we have to work a lot before being able to talk about it. My students learn german from the beginning, and though they learn a lot in a short time, discussing and talking easyly is something that takes time . How can I have them learn the basics in a meaningfull and different way ?\u00a0 At the beginning they need much help on pronouncing and understanding !<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>I scaffold these activities and make\u00a0them accessible to all students\u00a0through differentiation and feedback.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Yes I scaffold\u00a0 these activities and they are available to all, my expactations vary with the ability and progress of individual students and I firstly try to make them feel good about it , which to my opinion is more important as only correcting them.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks again for your attention and have a nice sunday, for those who are fathers: enjoy your day !<\/p>\n<p>( the video will be posted later )<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><br \/>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/lehrersimon.wordpress.com\/104\/\"><img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/kenscourses.com\/OpenFlipSpring2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/627dafc18f36a4e22aa28ad89b18795a.jpg\" \/><\/a> <img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/kenscourses.com\/OpenFlipSpring2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/7418e78fe01417f0f27263459ea77853.jpg#038;blog=112554024&%23038;post=104&%23038;subd=lehrersimon&%23038;ref=&%23038;feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello again to everybody, I was exited seeing the videos of two teenagers telling about why do we have to believe in them, how they see their learning processes, and what strucked&nbsp; me was their engagement!
