What would you do to develop professionally if your school gave you one day per week to pursue your goals?
If my school gave me one day per week I would like to see movies because watching movies is my favorite thing to spend my free time. And my goal is to be a good English teacher. I believe movies, English speaking movies, are good tool to learn English. The first thing I have to do is to choose a movie which is educational and easy to adapt to my lessons.
So here is my scenario. Probably I get up late and start my day with a cup of coffee. With only one day off, I wouldn’t drive so far to see a movie. If there is a nice movie showing in town I would go, but probably I’d rather rent a video or search a movie from the internet.
If I found a nice movie from the internet I might stay at home instead of going out to see a movie. In that case I can sit back and relax with my pajamas on. And then I would search the sound track music and movie script as well. While enjoying the movie I will write a note for my lesson since I can’t use the whole movie during my lesson.
After watch the movie I would decide which part I will use for my lesson. And then I read the script and watch the movie again. If the movie is too long I might not able to finish the work in one day. So I have to make a to do plan with one movie. See below.
Week 1: Choose a movie and watch the movie for two times. And choose the parts of the film which I can use in my lesson. Week 2: Make a script of the clip and some worksheets for the students. Week 3: Choose a song from the movie and listen to it many times. And think about some ideas or activities to use the song in the class.
