MJ in the classroom?

When Puan Foziah point out that for the next assignment we are going to transfer a Michael Jackson song entitled “The Earth Song” into a lesson plan for a language classroom, I was quite shocked.

At that time, I kept on wondering what kinds of activities can be done based on the song since as far as I know the song’s lyric do not contain a complete sentence structure that can be taught to young learners.But as time went by and after having a long and tiresome discussion with my partner, we finally had been able to jot down a few ideas that can be use.

This assignment also function as a tool to evaluate what we understood from the given lectures and tasks given as through this assignment we had to combine all the skills that we had learned which are audio editing,downloading,picture editing ,making video and others.

In my views this is crucial as this assignment works as the final evaluation for the skills that had been learned and practiced.This is the time for me to show and demonstrate what had been how to integrated into a classroom.It is important for me to take note all of this as these things can make teaching and learning process more effective.

While submitting this assignment I finally had realized one important thing that many of us always forget.Teaching a second language is not all about focusing on the language itself.Sometimes things that we think is not good is the most suitable to be used in teaching.For me, I am quite amused with myself that I can finally finished the assignment on time.Getting ready for another!
