How to handle a hetrogeneous class?
Posted: 19 Mar 2013, 13:18
Hi,
I'm a new teacher. I teach the 3rd grade (which is their 2nd year of English).
The class is very hetrogeneous - from non readers to native speakers. I use 10 minutes of greetings and introduction to the lesson topic, 10 minutes to summary and homework explanation (at the end of the lesson ) and 25 minutes the class works in groups and I try to move from group to group.
The problem is that I have the feeling that the strong students are "neglected" and sometimes even get board.
I would like to have some idead how (is it possible at all) to teach differential teaching and yet getting to each student...
I feel it's for me the one million $ question...
Thank you,
Anabelee
