Session Activity- Sit around and talk because of the abnormally large group
Item Produced- Good conversation, skill test, vocab
Summary- Four people showed up today, it was a large group with differing levels. We had a successful conversation in English intermixed with french (two learners, two speakers
Linguistic Effective- We got a few vocab words, but not more
Linguistic Ineffective- We didn’t achieve enough linguistically to even say there was something we sucked at
Linguistic Provisional Improvements- I don’t think this is a bad thing, this break was brought on by circumstances and necessary. Maybe highlight that
Cultural Effective- Hanging out with different levels of speakers/learners was very good for the confidence of both the speaker and learners. It became a moral check in point to show off what everyone had learned, but it also was a uniting force to see that there was a supporting community beyond the two regulars.
Cultural Ineffective- Because of the different speaker levels, there was not great cultural insight
Cultural Provisional Improvements- Write a section on how to deal with when this happens- maybe thinking of topics to provide in situations like this that would help the conversation be linguistically productive even if there is a large unorganized mass of people
Tomorrow-
