ESOL Term 3 Reflection

 Term 3 Reflection

This term in Esol we worked on language features, language skills, punctuations. This term we've been doing some tests to test our listening, writing, and reading skills. One of our lessons that I really enjoyed was watching the film "Cool Running" this film is about a Jamaican sprinter who gets disqualified from the Olympics Games, he enlists the help of a dishonored coach to start the first Jamaican Bobsled Team. "Cool Runnings" explores themes of perserverance against great odds, cheating, second chances, and developing self-esteem. I really enjoyed watching this film and hope that we do more film studies in class. One of the tasks I was proud of was my Presentation I did on places to visit and do In New Zealand, I think I did really well with speaking and putting in effort in my presentation. What I could do differently next time is getting my work done on time and using my time in class given to complete tasks.
