     This year, perhaps the lesson in which we prepared the most materials and used various materials was the drama lesson. While playing many games and using materials, we also prepared them to present and use with our classmates.  For our part, me and my friend Nur Ebrar C. decided to make a presentation about "Seasons and Weather Conditions". We started the class by asking questions about seasons and weather conditions. After that, Nur Ebrar started to teaching the topic while using some cardboards:   While showing these, we also showed some other pictures that we took from the internet to teach the feelings and the conditions of weather.       After the lecture, we made a quick warm-up activity to prepare the students to do physical activity.

       I've done more material this year than any other school year. Especially in a developing world, technological education materials have a very important place. One of these materials is the "GrammELT" that I made with my friend Nur Ebrar C. using wix.com for the Instructional Technologies course I took in the first semester. As someone who has never prepared a website in her life, although it was difficult at first, the result really satisfied us. The site has a few posts on the importance of English, as well as grammar topics and lots of activities which means it is a site designed entirely for online English teaching. the link for the site: https://itsohsun.wixsite.com/my-site Some screenshots of the site:

      This year, we did so many things about materials and methods. Two of them were for the class: Approaches. Me and my dear friend, Nur Ebrar C. made a presentation about the heart and circulatory system by using Content-based Instruction. "Content-Based Instruction (CBI) refers to an approach to second language teaching in which teaching is organized around the content or information that students will acquire, rather than around a linguistic or other type of syllabus (Ricgards & Rodgers, 2001) "      We first taught the topic by using a PowerPoint presentation because we wanted to show lots of visuals for our friends to understand what we were teaching. After showing and teaching about the parts of the heart and circulatory system, we played a quick Kahoot game with our friends.
