Post-lesson reflection on the activity
What went well? Why? Did you and your students achieve what you wanted to achieve? Note down several things you are proud of about this activity. Why did it feel good? Did your learners enjoy this activity? Why? Were all the learners involved? Did it suit your learners’ learning styles?	During the lesson I used Learner Centred Classroom approach taught by Kate Cory-Wright. By the end of the lesson students used the Present Simple and the Present Continuous talking about averyday activities, ask and answer questions on the topic “Family” using the Present Simple and the Present Continuous, put wh-questions to learn about everyday activities. They Completed a letter to a teacher as a game. The learners produced the group letter about  everyday activities they usally do. All the students were involved because all of them should make up and add  a sentence to a letter. They also  developed the ability to form wh-questions and do the tests correctly, ability  to do the test on choosing the correct answer,  to practice vocabulary and  grammar and develop skills for analyzing and summing up. The Learnerscould  identify the characteristic features of Present Simple and Present Continuous, share their ideas and find common categories. I think all  the students enjoyed that activity at the lesson because they worked in a group and helped each other to learn the material.
What didn’t go well? Why? Is there anything that you didn’t achieve (activity)? Can you identify any points where your instructions could have been clearer? Was the time used efficiently? Were there any points where you felt awkward or uncomfortable? If so, why?	There was the activity when the learners found difficulty in using Present Simple not Present Continuous for the verbs: feel, see, hear, like, love, hate ets. Because they can listen to songs where the words are used in Continuous aspect, like: I am feeling sad… So my instructions should be clearer, but we do not have much time at the lesson. Next time I will pay more attention to this phenomenon. I think the time at the lesson for the activity was used efficiently because the task was done well and thanks to group work all the students were involved into the lesson activities and learned the material.
What changes will I make next time? Why? If you taught the same activity again, what would you do the same? What would you do differently? What have you learned about this activity?	I would organize the activity at the lesson in the same way. I would like to use a computer lab to make students write a letter to a teacher  individually on the computer and make the program evaluate the learners achievements.
