2 2011: Foreign Language Activities in elementary schools in Japan. 2013: English will be taught “mainly in English” in Japanese high schools. How will junior high school English education need to change to keep up? Chapter 11 Present and future…

3 Use classroom English and expect students to use it too. Introduce classroom English from the first day. Prepare a list of expressions to use in class. Introduce only a few expressions at a time. Review and practice every day. Remind students to use English. Praise them. Chapter 11 Create an English-rich environment

6 Sometimes students resist having the teacher speak English in class. How will you respond if a student says this: “Teacher, why are you speaking English? We can’t understand you! Speak Japanese!” “My friends’ English teachers speak Japanese. Why won’t you?” Chapter 11 How will you respond to students?

12 What happens to us when something goes wrong in the classroom? We get upset and feel stressed out. The “fight-flight” reflex begins. We get angry and start shouting. Adrenaline starts pumping through our body. We get more upset. It takes half an hour for the adrenaline level to go back to normal. Chapter 13

13 Chapter 12

14 How can we stay calm? Understand what’s happening, and then take a relaxing breath. Don’t let it get to you. Emotions are contagious. If you’re calm, the class is calm. If you’re upset, the class is upset. Chapter 13

15 Set limits consistently It doesn’t work to be “pretty consistent most of the time.” You’re either consistent or you’re inconsistent. (On the other hand, there are times when we need to be merciful.) Chapter 13

16 Discipline has to come before instruction If you don’t have control of the class, you can’t teach. Discipline needs to come first. Chapter 13

17 Never make a rule that you’re not willing to enforce every time. If you’re consistent, you can use smaller and smaller consequences to control misbehavior. If you’re inconsistent, you must use larger and larger consequences. Chapter 13

18 Body language: “The Turn” Turn slowly. Turn your upper body first, then the rest of you. Finish with your feet pointing squarely toward the student. Chapter 13

19 Body language: “The Look” A strong “teacher look” is calm and without emotion. Think of England’s Queen Victoria. If the student gives you a “cute” look, resist smiling. Chapter 13
